Michael read this passage and felt he understood exactly what jadyn meant, in section 2, when he said that the wei's boxes were covered in weird writing, like stick pictures. this is probably because a) michael's personal experiences, like jadyn's, did not include learning the chinese language.
b) michael's personal experiences, like jadyn's, did not include learning the moving to a new city.
c) michael's personal experiences, like jadyn's, included learning and reading about many cultures.
d) michael's personal experiences, like jadyn's, did not include the a complete study of interpretive art.

A) Michael's personal experiences, like Jadyn's, did not include learning the Chinese language.

Explanation:

Based on the passage, it is evident that the American family have no idea about Chinese language, and maybe even of the culture. Unlike the Chinese family who were fluent in English, they found it weird to actually see the Chinese letters and alphabets in written in the boxes. So, when Michael read this, he will also have the same reaction. By understanding the condition of Jadyn's opinion of the writing on the box, it can be assured that both Michael and Jadyn's personal experiences did not include learning the Chinese language.

as for symbolic actions, the narrator's tearing down the wallpaper in an attempt to find the "woman" in the wallpaper represents her struggle to retain or regain her sanity.   the wallpaper has been part of her confinement and by her tearing it down, she is freeing herself from that confinement.
