Answer:A. Wernicke's area

Explanation:Wernicke's area is the region of the brain which is crucial for developing langauge abilities. It is found in the temporal lobe on the left part of the brain and it allows someone to understand the speech.

Write an essay to present an argument that either supports or opposes the decision to award a singer-songwriter the Nobel Prize
stich3 [128]

The Nobel Prize for Literature aims to reward a writer, regardless of his nationality, who has developed a literary work of the highest quality and remarkable meaning that must be disseminated and awarded.

In one of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Bob Dylan, a musician and composer was awarded and had the honor of receiving this award, which generated a great debate within the literary society that presented controversial reasons for this permission. That's because Dylan was not a writer but a musician, causing many not to believe that he should receive an award for literary works.

However, we must not forget that music is nothing more than sung poetry and like all poetry, it must be written with literary devices, correct grammar, coherence, cohesion, rhyme, tone and all the other factors that make up a literary work. . A composer is a writer, and is one of the most notable writers, since the music must convey a sunjunctive message, but full of meaning.

Based on this, we can say that it is impossible to doubt the merit of Bob Dylan and any other composer to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature, since his work is nothing more than a literary work.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: But to me, my mother's English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It's my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, full of observation and imagery. That was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed things, made sense of the world.

In this passage, Tan is giving us information about her mother's speech. She uses various examples to convey what the mother's English sounds like and the kind of things she can accomplish with it. However, it is at the very end where Tan explains where her own views of the world come from. She argues that her perspective, her views on the world and her beliefs all come from her "mother tongue," which is the way her mother speaks English.
