Read the excerpt from "Mother Tongue."

English
1 answer:
juin [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A but its a poor choice.

Explanation:

Well it's never going to be B. Anyone who has to learn English will tell you its a monster.

I doubt C as well. If they were similar, people from China wouldn't require a lot of tutoring which they usually do.

The author is arguing the exact opposite to D. She thinks it is just fine that she learned a great deal about the world and how she saw things from her mother who had a talent for observations.

I guess you have to pick A but it's an awfully poor choice. The author (Amy Tan I think) is saying much more than A. Vivid is fine and complete languages are fine, but its more than that. Her mother gave her the gift of seeing the world in a whole different way.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Explanation:

She teaches her children her perception that rules are different for her and her family when they live in a foreign country. She says it's best to learn the rules as they apply where you live.

She then makes her own rule for chess (winning is about who keeps the most chessmen on the board) in a game she does not play herself. If she took her own advice, she'd learn the actual chess rules.
