This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Speaking slowly, loudly, and emphasizing the key words, the waitress asked her elderly patron, "Would you rather have a slice of lemon pie or pecan pie, dear?" What is the waitress demonstrating with this speech style?

A. common courtesy

B. stereotype threat

C. elderspeak

D. respect for the elderly

Answer:

The correct answer is letter C. elderspeak.

Explanation:

Elderspeak is a speech style characterized by adjustments such as shortening sentences, speaking louder and/or more slowly, using less complex vocabulary etc. Those adaptations are made by younger people when communicating with older adults. Such behavior derives from the stereotype that older people have reduced cognitive abilities.

The correct answer would be, Latent Functions.

According to the functionalist perspective, all social institutions, including education, have functions that are hidden, unstated and sometimes unintended consequences of their activities. These functions are called as the Latent Functions.

Explanation:

The unconscious, unintended and beneficial functions are called as the latent functions. These functions have usually positive impact on the society.

For example, if we take the social institution of Education, we can see that the main purpose of Education in the country is to make children and youth literate. The latent function of Educating a society would be the awareness and the socialized behavior of the people. Cognitive skills are also seen and can be enhanced through education.
