you need not rewrite every word, but your version should make the meaning of the original text clear.
what dire offense from amorous causes springs,
what mighty contests rise from trivial things,
i sing — this verse to caryll, muse! is due:
this, even belinda may vouchsafe to view:
slight is the subject, but not so the praise,
if she inspires, and he approves my lays.
say what strange motive, goddess! could compel
a well-bred lord t' assault a gentle belle?
o say what stranger cause, yet unexplored,
could make a gentle belle reject a lord?
in tasks so bold, can little men engage,
and in soft bosoms dwells such mighty rage?

Explanation:

What terrible offense can result from romantic pursuits,

What great fights can arise from trivial things,

I sing- this poem for Caryll, muse is needed:

Even Belinda can do me the favor of reading this verse

The subject of the poem is trivial, but the praise could be great

If she (Belinda) inspires and he (Caryll) approves my poem.

Tell me, what strange motive could compel a well bred Lord (aristocrat or a gentleman) to assault a gentle girl?

Tell me, what even stranger cause, as yet unheard of,

could compel a gentle girl to reject a Lord?

Small men can undertake such bold actions

And soft-hearted women can hold so much anger?

the answer is b i think

explanatithe story "two kinds" , revolves around a strict relationship between a mother and daughter. the mother tries very hard to make sure her daughter jing mei , is successful in life and lives up to her full potential. the story explores alot of different themes. though , there is one theme that really stands out. you cant force someone to be something that their not.

jing mei's mother was an immagrant from china. she moved to the united states to give her daughter , jing mei , a better and successful life for her. and being raised in china with their strict rules and striving to be perfect took a toll on her and her daughters relationship. she pressures her daughter to be great and perfect all the time but it gets really hard for her to live up to her mothers standards. her mother believes that jing mei can be a child prodigy and prepares her to be and act like one. furthermore , the story ends with jing mei getting everything off her chest and seeing the dissappointment in her mothers eyes as she finds out her daughter has not lived up to her full potential. and her mother has finally gained an understanding of her daughter.
