I was in choir from 7th grade to the end of highschool. For 3 years in highschool I was in Madrigals which is the top choir in the school. We had a lot of responsibility and it was a smaller group. We were really close, we all had a lot of fun & when it came to activities and contests, the wins felt so much more rewarding because the fraction of effort you put in is much greater than if it was just some other choir group. Also because of the level of engagement. Everyone was equally invested, eager and serious about everything we were doing, which made us that much more talented and brought us all closer together. It was more like a family than it was a choir group

Answer:
I believe the safest choice is letter A. the failure of language to convey the truth of experience.
Explanation:
We might be, at first, tempted to choose letter C concerning labels imposed by men that restrict a woman's life. After all, there is much of feminism in Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying"'s narrator, Addie Bundren. However, the passage we are analyzing here and the context which surrounds it show that<u> Addie's indeed discussing the inadequacy of words to describe experiences. </u>
She sees language as something invented, something built with the purpose of explaining an experience, a feeling. However, she does not think words are effective. Motherhood is only a word, a group of letters and sounds that tries to summarize what the experience of being a mother is. But the experience in itself is much fuller, much richer than the idea that word can ever convey. The same happens to other words, feelings, experiences. As Addie says, <em>"That was when I learned that words are no good; that words don’t ever fit even what they are trying to say at. When he was born I knew that motherhood was invented by someone who had to have a word for it because the ones that had the children didn’t care whether there was a word for it or not. I knew that fear was invented by someone that had never had fear; pride, who never had the pride."</em>
I believe it is safe, then, to choose letter A. the failure of language to convey the truth of experience.
