The statement which best expresses the central idea of "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan is:

C) The best way to understand someone's true abilities is to listen to him or her use language.

Amy Tan's essay “Mother Tongue” is about the difficulties that a child has to face if it grows in a family in which its parents speak 'limited English.' Amy's mother was among such parent who was unable to speak fluent and proper English. It is through the language that the person is judged by others. Amy was brought up by her mother and because of this, her writing style was much influenced by the language spoken at her home. Her mother taught her that a person's perception of the world is influenced by the language spoken at home.

Which of the following is a predicate?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

B. The lovely young ballet company

Explanation:

Here's an example. In the sentence "The wall is purple," the subject is "wall," the predicate adjective is "purple" and the linking verb is "is." So, it's subject, verb, and predicate adjective.
