Answer:

Tan uses a nonstandard version of english with her husband because it is the language she spoke as a child and it expresses intimacy.

Explanation:

Growing up in a multilingual household or speaking English as a second language can lead to interesting speech patterns. Even when we are adults and realize that certain phrases or idioms are not grammatically correct, we often use them anyway because of the fond memories they bring or because of the contexts or people we associate them with.

The only thing left is C. This is an inference question, so the right answer can be inferred. He's concerned about the well being of his employees.
