d.because meimei won a chess tournament
In "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan, Meimei's mother tells Vincent to throw away the chess set because she wants Meimei to focus on her schoolwork and not waste time on a hobby that she sees as a mere distraction. Meimei's mother believes that success and achievement in academics are more important than playing chess.
At the end of the story, I sympathize with Meimei more. She demonstrates courage in pursuit of her passion for chess despite her mother's disapproval. She shows resilience and determination in standing up for herself and following her dreams.
Meimei's mother taught her the importance of knowing when to hold back and conceal her true abilities in order to outsmart her opponents. This lesson of strategic thinking and mental toughness helped Meimei navigate the challenges she faced both in chess and in life.
