In paragraph 13, Gee argues that members of the dominant Discourse apply "constant 'tests'" to people whose primary Discourse is
not the dominant one. Later, he explains that members of the dominant Discourses often pay close attention to how mechanically "correct" others' language is because these features are the "best test as to whether one was apprenticed in the 'right' place, at the 'right' time, with the 'right' people" (para. 25). What is Gee talking about here? Provide an example you have seen or experienced that illustrates what Gee is describing. Why do you think dominant Discourse "tests" happen? What is the benefit to the members of the dominant Discourse?
