"A still tongue makes a wise head"   is an idiom. Option A is correct.

This saying may mean that someone who does not talk much, but listens to other people, probably has experience, knowledge and good judgement.

An idiom is a type figure of speech which should not be taken literally. It is established by usage that has a meaning not necessarily deductible from those of the individual words.

Idioms convey a particular sentiment, but they do not literally mean what the individual words themselves mean.

Zolol [24]

The Kite Runner is a novel which portrays the visible division in Afghanistan society. Most notable among this social stratification is the financial classes.

The novel shows clear inequality between two ethnicities in Afghanistan. These ethnicities are

  • The Pashtuns
  • The Hazaras

    Amir and his father Baba portrayed the role of the Pashtuns, who  live in mansions with large gardens and several rooms, which also includes a smoking lounge where Baba talks with friends.

Amir also describes the place as being able to accommodate 30 people comfortably with room to spare.

   On the other hand, the Hazaras which was portrayed by Ali and his son Hassan live at the southernmost part of the garden under the shadows of a loquat tree.

   Although Amir and hassan could be said to be friends, Amir never really considered Hassan his friends because of reason such

  • Religion ( Amir was Sunni Muslim while Hassan was Shi'a Muslim
  • Ethnicity ( Amir was Pashtun while Hassan was Hazara)
  • Financial Status
  • History

The above factors clear represents the social and economic stratification in the Afghan society.
