How does odilia feel after La Llorona gives her the sprigs of jojotle?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

She felt dizzy for in her own words, "the room was spinning a little".

Explanation:

"Summer of the Mariposas" is the story of five girls who discovered the body of a man whom they believed came from Mexico, floating in the body of water where they swam. The girls who were cared for by their mother and abandoned by their father decided that instead of going to the police, they would rather take the body back to Mexico and also visit their grandmom there. During their adventure, Odilia who was one of the sisters encountered La Llorana, a ghost who was believed to have taken her children's lives in the river. Initially, she was scared but the woman calmed her fears by telling the girls that the popular story about her was untrue. She gave Odilia an earring to protect her and her sisters five times in the course of their journey.

Later, when the sisters were taken to the home of a woman named Cecilia who was poisoning them, La Llorona gave Odilia Sprigs of Jojotle to help her recover. The Jojotle had a dizzy effect for Odilia commented that she had to go 'sit down on the bed because the room was spinning a little'.

So now on nights when my mother presented her tests, I performed listlessly, my head propped on one arm. I pretended to be bored
Natalka [10]

Answer:

I believe three options can be chosen:

  1. She wants her mother to feel differently about her.
  2. She feels a strong need for independence.
  3. She wants to influence her mother’s behavior.

Explanation:

This excerpt is part of the short story "Two Kinds", by Amy Tan. The main character, June, is expected to become a prodigy child by her mother, Suyuan. Her mother quizzes her on different subjects and demands that she take piano lessons.

At a certain point, June begins to defy her mother's wishes. In the excerpt we are analyzing here, for instance, she decides to show how bored and uninterested she is with the intention of making her mother give up on her. June is fighting - as much as she can as a child - for own independence. She believes she can change her mother's feelings and behavior if she performs badly at the tasks she is given.
