From these answers, I think that the best one would be "It shows that the writer's memory is imperfect and sets up the reason for the trip. It is not the first one, because it is just a guess that he is old. It is not the second one, because the writer knows how to write, just not what to write about. It is not the final one, because in the text it does not say that memory is a better source of writing.

Language is either a spoken, written or a sign that can be used to convey message from one person to another. It can serve as an identity of an individual.

From the paragraph, English has been the common language of United States but the additional linguistic laws such as S356 will pose a threat to the nation's unity.
