This is the thesis to an essay: "A theme of both 'Fish Cheeks' and 'Broken Chain' is that it is normal to want to fit in with others." Which quote from "Fish Cheeks" best supports this thesis? "For Christmas I prayed for this blond-haired boy, Robert, and a slim new American nose." "The minister managed to muster up a quiet burp. I was stunned into silence for the rest of the night." "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."

"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."

Explanation:

This is the sentence that best shows that it is normal to want to fit in with others. In "Fish Cheeks," the speaker is bothered by the fact that she is Chinese, and that this makes her look very different from American girls. She wants to fit in. The quote shows that the character who gives the gift to the speaker makes her feel like this feeling is not necessarily negative. The character tells us that it is normal to want to fit in, and that it is not something that we should be worried about, as long as we remain authentic on the inside.

"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." is the best one to say.
