C. Above the closed classroom door, the clock was ticking down the last 60 seconds of the science quiz. Hannah's heart beat faster as she attempted to scribble in answers and finish in time.

Option C is the best answer. Suspense is created when the author gives a feeling of uncertainty or anxiety about what will come next. In this option, the pace of Hannah's increasing heart beat and the clicking of the clock's seconds create a feeling of anxiety. The reader can sense the pressure for Hannah to finish the quiz in time and can hear the seconds tick as Hannah slowly runs out of time.

Option A is a beautiful description but there is no sense of urgency or apprehension about what comes next. Option B is also a description of a girl arranging stuffed animals on her bed. There is no apprehension or concern about what might happen next. Option D tells of a farmer's market closing down for day without any anxiety.

1. How does the idea of Tan’s reconciliation with her mother’s informal English develop over the course of chunk 1?
zvonat [6]

Answer :

In the story "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan, Amy struggles with the idea of code-switching which loosely means using different forms and dialects of English language in different circumstances.

During her growing up years, Amy struggled with the concept of code switching. She feels that she is in two language zones - one is the simple, unclear and broken language of her mother and the other is the more sophisticated use of the language that she learns at school. At times, she is embarrassed of her mother's spoken English, when her friends cannot understand what she wants to convey to them. Amy does not realize that her mother is really proficient in reading the language as she could read many books in English. Her mother only lacks in speaking proficiency as English is not her native language.

Slowly, Amy starts realizing the merits of growing up in an immigrant family and starts appreciating the cultures and traditions of her two worlds.
