Enugu State.
Nigeria.
Dear John,
How are you and how is your family over there in Nigeria? Hope everyone is okay.
As you are well aware, I've just written my WAEC exams which gives me the platform to gain admission into a higher institute of learning.
I plan to study Medicine and Surgery and become like the hero we always dreamed of when we were kids - Kwadwo Asamoah -, helping the sick get better and the society better as a whole.
I applied to the prestigious University of Accra, Ghana which I think is the best place possible for me to learn and become a competent doctor and surgeon. I have already gotten the school brochure and started preliminary studies and would appreciate your help in the financial aspects of my education like you already promised.
I appreciate your assistance and hope to come down to Nigeria and see you soon.
Yours faithfully,
Prince Appiah.

A spell checker is a computer program designed to check the spelling of words in a text, to identify which are misspelled and to provide options to correct them. It is based in spelling, but the program does not take into account the context in which the word is being used, therefore it can not indicate us which word is being used incorrectly.

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.
