Read the first three paragraphs of "two kinds.”
my mother believed you could be anything you wanted to be in america. you could open a restaurant. you could work for the government and get good retirement. you could buy a house with almost no money down. you could become rich. you could become instantly famous.
"of course you can be a prodigy, too," my mother told me when i was nine. "you can be best anything. what does auntie lindo know? her daughter, she is only best tricky."
america was where all my mother's hopes lay. she had come here in 1949 after losing everything in china: her mother and father, her family home, her first husband, and two daughters, twin baby girls. but she never looked back with regret. there were so many ways for things to get better.
based on this passage, what us value has the narrator’s mother embraced?
acceptance
independence
self-expression
self-fulfillment

Explanation:

Acceptance is in there. But I don't think it was the intended answer. Her mother had suffered great losses, but did not complain about it . She looked to the future.

Is her mother looking at independence? Again, there is some of that in there, but I don't think that is the answer either.

There is also self expression

But I think the answer you want is self-fulfillment. That achievement includes all the others.

self-fulfillment

Explanation:

The narrator's mother of the excerpt in the text saw America as the place that would enable her self-realization as well as her family's self-realization. This can be confirmed in the text, when the narrator's mother states that in America you can be and do what you want, you can be famous, you can be rich, you can be political, you can have a home. The narrator's mother sees in America the chance to have everything she could not do in her homeland. She loves the fact that america is the land of self-realization.
