I had assumed that my talent-show fiasco meant that I would never have to play the piano again. But two days later, after school, my mother came out of the kitchen and saw me watching TV. "Four clock," she reminded me, as if it were any other day.

In the excerpt above, what can be inferred from the statement, "... as if it were any other day"?
A. The narrator thinks her mother has lost track of time.
B.The narrator hopes to become a prodigy by watching television daily
C.The mother wants her daughter to do her homework as soon as she returns from school.
D.The mother continues to believe that her daughter can become a prodigy.

Respuesta :

D. The mother continues to believe that her child can excel at playing the piano

Answer: D. The mother continues to believe that her daughter can become a prodigy.

Explanation: In "The Joy Luck Club" by Amy Tan, the narrator did a terrible job at playing the piano at the talent show, so she believed that her mother would stop pushing her to play piano. By her mother behaving "as if it were any other day" means that the incident from the talent show did not discourage her.
