"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.

What are some of the thing one looks for in a good biography? Please give very long paragraph
barxatty [35]
A biography can contain almost anything about a person- Their entire life, or just one key event... Most biographies, regardless of their length and target audience, will provide basic facts like the time and place in which the person lived.
