Answer:
c. He was present when his mother, Matata, was being taught how to communicate.
Explanation:
The attempts to 'teach' language and help animals communicate with humans has been ongoing research and practical work of many linguistics and psychologists. Sue Savage-Rumbaugh is one of those psychologists who worked on teaching language and communication between animals and humans, specifically focusing on the bonobos.
Kanzi was an infant bonobo when Sue first began teaching lexigrams to Matata, Kanzi's adopted mother. But despite their attempts, Matata seemed to be incapable of learning or understanding anything. Taken back to another facility to be a breeder, Kanzi was left behind. After a couple of days, Sue noticed that Kanzi had absorbed whatever had been taught to his mother. This led Sue to focus on teaching Kanzi instead.
Thus, the correct answer is that Kanzi was present when his mother, Matata was being taught to communicate.

"Have you heard about the new plastic bag tax?" Obviously, a rhetorical question, the next question could also be considered rhetorical.
"Wonderful, don't you think?" Is emotive language, because it showcases the writer's opinion, and almost making you agree with them from the context.

Answer:
A. He uses the father's letter and dialogue to convey his disapproval of Nnaemeka's marriage.
Explanation:
Chinua Achebe's short story "Marriage is a Private Affair" revolves around the story of Nnaemeka and his "unaccepted" marriage to a woman outside of his tribe. The story delves into how tradition posed an obstacle to a marriage between two tribes, and how women are perceived to be in society.
When Nnaemeka informed his father about his marriage to Nene, his father was opposed to the idea of him marrying a woman outside of their Igbo tribe. Moreover, she was brought up in a cosmopolitan city and not 'fit' to be a traditional housewife. So, when he got the wedding picture, he cut off Nene from the photo and sent it back, replying with the words <em>"on further thought I decided just to cut off your wife and send it back to you because I have nothing to do with her. How I wish that I had nothing to do with you either."</em>
The author used the letter and the dialogues of Okeke to reveal his perspective of his son's marriage.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
