This phrase means when you don't have anything to say. For example, when someone is dumbfounded, they get confused and don't talk. Someone might ask them, "Cat got your tongue?"

Answer: E) My mother considered the idea of a child sleeping alone a cruel American practice.
This sentence shows that the mother had a cultural background that was different from the American one. Even though for most Americans, a child sleeping alone would be common, for her it was a cruel practice. The excerpt shows that Hema's mother does not endorse all American practices, which indicates she has a different cultural heritage, in this case, a Bengali one.
Sure! How about a cat standing in front of a mirror looking at its reflection. Instead of seeing its true reflection (reality), it sees itself as a great big lion (perception).
Hope I helped!
