Answer:
c.It highlights the loss of identity felt by the Indian people.
Explanation:
“By Any Other Name" portrays the loss of the essence of indigenous individuals when forced to live in British "reformatorios", where they were forced to use Christian names and assume British customs seen as correct and civilized. In the excerpt shown in the question above, we see that one of the "teachers" of the reformatorio asks an indigenous girl what her name is. The girl was taught not to use her indigenous name anymore, what makes her confused about what name she has and who she really is.
The author's choice of words for this passage highlights the loss of identity felt by the indigenous people.
