Read the excerpt from "Mother Tongue." Lately, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” or “fractured” English. But I wince when I say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no other way to describe it other than “broken,” as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness and soundness. How does Tan build a central idea of her story in the excerpt? Tan discusses her thoughts about language to build the idea that the English language does not have words to match some Chinese terms. Tan discusses her relationship with her mother to build the idea that mothers and daughters in all cultures often have misunderstandings. Tan discusses her mother’s use of English to build the idea that a form of language can be purposeful and meaningful even if it is nonstandard. Tan discusses the English language to build the idea that there is a lack of appropriate synonyms for the word “broken.”

The results of the Scientific Revolution clashed with the mystical model of the Catholic Church to determine the knowledge according to religious precepts. In the view of the Catholic Church, scientific discoveries were interpreted as heresy, and as an affront to the hierarchical and moral position. Therefore, the Church persecuted many scientists. The most emblematic cases were Giordano Bruno, who was condemned and murdered in the year 1600, in Rome, for his theory of the Heliocentrics, and Galileo Galilei, which confirmed the theory of Nicholas Copernicus that the Earth was not the center of the universe. Galileo had to deny his words in order not to be burned at the stake.Correct answer: C
