Answer:
I honestly would go with D. Reflective
Explanation:
I unfortunately did persuasive (which is the wrong answer), but in all honesty "Mother Tongue" is a personal essay, so the best answers would either be D. Reflective or C. Bias.
C is a bit out there though... just because it's a personal essay doesn't mean it's biased as well XD Best of luck, let me know if you got it right!
Hope this help
<span> It is believed that the first Dutch settlers came to South Africa in 1652. These settlers founded the city of Cape Town and over time developed a unique culture, language, and society, helping to form a unified Afrikaner population. Afrikaners, also formerly known as Boers, historically have been defined as those Afrikaans language-speakers of European especially Dutch descent who have inhabited Southern Africa since the 17th century.

Paraphrase is to keep the same meaning but simplify it so simply read the excerpt and simplify what they are saying
