The answer is B) The author's parents were afraid to discuss murders or events in the Dominican Republic.
The central idea of the excerpt is shown through expressions such as "hushed voices", "No flies fly into a closed mouth", which express the fear the author's parents felt of talking about the facts and, because of that, being associated with them. Since the Dominican Republic was under a dictatorship, people feared being killed by even discussing what was happening to the resistence and the insurgents who were indeed killed by the regime. As it happens in countries under dictatorial regimes, people are tortured and murdered even if there is no evidence of their plotting against the government. Suspicion is enough to have them assassinated.
Answer:
<em>Our purple and green striped uniforms are the </em><u><em>most ugliest</em></u><em> in the whole league.</em>
Explanation:
This is the sentence that employs comparatives wrongly. When we compare two things, we need to change the structure of the adjective. In some words, this will mean an addition of the suffix "-er" and "-est." However, in other cases, we will need to employ the words "more" and "most." It is important to remember that in no cases should we use both of these structures. This sentence is wrong precisely because of this. The correct form would be:
<em>"Our purple and green striped uniforms are the </em><u><em>ugliest</em></u><em> in the whole league."</em>
