Read the excerpt from "Fish Cheeks.” 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.”

Which statement best describes the purpose and effect of this excerpt?
