fgiga [73]

This is the central idea of the passage. We know this because it says, "there is no concept of 'health and safety'. Other details that reveal this as a central idea are "contemporary standards of cleanliness will worry you", "People die every day from unknown ailments", and "Infectious diseases periodically kill thousands". This all shows that remaining healthy in England was a challenge.

Naddika [18.5K]

In her book “ <em><u>Mother Tongue</u></em> “ <u>Amy Tan</u> describes how she used a different English for different situations. When she spoke to her mother or her friends or at school, her English differed. In the 1st excerpt the bias is expressed that speaking English differently, is bad English.

Question: Select the excerpt from "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan that best describes language bias.

Answer: 1. I've heard other terms used, "limited English," for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people's perceptions of the limited-English speaker.
