Answer:

Her mother's shoes represents Chow's grief and memories of her mother.

Explanation:

"In My Mom's Shoes", Chow reflects over the experiences of losing her mother and walking in her mom's old pair of shoes.

She explains how the shoes looked like on her mom's feet and also the happy times she spent with her mother.

An excerpt below:

'It's easy to remember her wearing these shoes — and not for yachting. They were as much a part of her look as her wry grin and the way she'd try to wink but instead only be able to blink both eyes. They were on her feet at the barn when she would take me to ride.'

The shoes gives Chow so much remembrance of her mom. She is overjoyed when her roommate sends the other shoe to her. Whenever she wears the shoes, she feels her mom's feet in them.

An excerpt below:

'They're still impeccably soft, though. I can feel her imprint in them; my big toe aligns with hers, and the backs of my heels are cupped by the dents her own must have formed'

1. In Around the World in Eighty Days, Phileas Fogg makes an impulsive wager that he can travel around the world in eighty days
CaHeK987 [17]

Focusing on Passepartout’s perspective makes the story objective. Passepartout doesn’t have a personal bias or have anything to prove so he doesn't react impulsively or affectionately. (Greenleafable, Brainly)“Being much less cool-headed than Mr. Fogg, he was much more restless, counting and recounting the days passed over, uttering maledictions when the train stopped, and accusing it of sluggishness, and mentally blaming Mr. Fogg for not having bribed the engineer. The worthy fellow was ignorant that, while it was possible by such means to hasten the rate of a steamer, it could not be done on the railway.” This is a quote showing that the narrator is telling the story from third person, not Passepartou from first, thus giving the story a more real and relatable aspect to it.

In recent times, however, he states that the way these stories are presented on TV via Movies, TV Series, Seasonal Movies have improved remarkably. He attributes these changes to improved directing, acting and design. He also mentions, as another contributing factor to finer TV programs, the increased depth of research (ethnography) that goes into the making of some of the prominent TV shows in recent times such as "Game of Thrones", and "Battlestar Galactica".
