The correct answer to which best explains Nye's choice words to establish her voice in the mentioned excerpt is the second one: "Nye uses figurative language to support her opinion that staying connected to one's heritage makes life richer."
She uses her mother tongue saluting her neighbours and this shows them Nye's complex cultural background and that her identity is not confined to one simple category. She is close to her cultural heritage and it is present in her everyday life. Not being limited to a simplistic identity makes her life richer and open to multiple identifications and cultural references.
Nye uses figurative language to support her opinion that staying connected to one’s heritage makes life richer.Nye is not literally opening the door to a thousand rooms. This is the element of figurative language, a hyperbole. She uses this to show the wealth of opportunities that are available when one stays connected to their heritage. Her translation of the phrase is more of a consideration to the reader and a demonstration of her multicultural heritage. It doesn't show confusion or that it is best.
A moth saves him by aspiring to fly the stars instead of flying to a lamp and dying. Because the moth follows his dream to fly to a star, he never makes it, but he doesn’t burn up into flames.
