After everyone had gone, my mother said to me. "You

want to be the same as American girls on the outside."She handed me an early gift. It was a miniskirt in beige tweed. "But inside you must always be Chinese. You must be proud you are different. Your only shame is to have shame."

Why does Amy describe the miniskirt made of beige

tweed that her mother gives her?

to show that her mother is apologizing for embarrassing her at dinner

to show what Amy should be wearing instead of what she wants to wear

to show that her mother understands that she wants to look like an American girl

to show that Amy can never wear the same clothes as other American girls
