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.
I used to have a teacher who said this as well. The best way to understand would be to show examples of how to specify such terms as “stuff” and “things”. For instance: “The birds have lots of stuff.” That was not clear because the reader does not know what the “stuff” is. Instead, the text could be changed to: “The birds have lots of feathers.” Now the reader knows what the stuff is because it has been replaced with a more specific word. If you go over multiple examples in your head, it will become easier to comprehend and you will get used to doing it.
