Answer 1

After reading Amy Tan's "Mother Tongue," we can say that the phrase "carefully wrought" in paragraph 2 suggests:

E. technical mastery and craftsmanship.

What is Tan saying in paragraph 2?

• Tan is talking about the time she was made aware of the different Englishes she uses. She was giving a speech when she remembered her mother was in the room. In her speech, she was using a different kind of English than she normally used when with her mother.

• Tan says that her speech had "carefully wrought grammatical phrases," which means she had used all her mastery of the English language, all her craftsmanship, to make it a linguistic masterpiece.
