Answer 1

In American Born Chinese, the quality that Jin Wang's character exhibits that makes him a round character is B. He has conflicting feelings about what he wants. Throughout the story, Jin struggles with his identity as a Chinese-American and the pressure to fit in with his white peers. He wants to be accepted and popular, but he also wants to embrace his culture and heritage. This internal conflict drives much of the story and makes Jin a complex and multi-dimensional character.
