A because it seems like the best answer to choose.
Two examples of code-switching are when Tan speaks "incorrect" or "broken" English to her mom in the first personal anecdote (when she tells her mom not to buy something), and when Tan realizes that the English she's using for a literary event is strange to use in front of her mother.
This code-switching reflects Tan's complex upbringing and Asian-American background, because, unlike many people who don't come from immigrant families or who don't speak several languages, she was acutely aware of certain sociolinguistic systems from an early age. For example, although Tan's mother's English makes sense to her, Tan would have to talk for her mother in several situations in order to be understood, to be taken more seriously, or even to be treated fairly.
The correct answer is D. Shelley was an introverted child who spent much of her time wandering the countryside
Explanation:
Mary Shelley who is mainly known for being the author of the novel "Frankenstein" was an English novelist during the 19th century. During her childhood, Mary Shelley grew up without his mother as she died after Shelley was born due to puerperal fever, instead her father and sister were in charge of growing up Mary. In general terms, despite the absence of her mother, the childhood of Shelley was rather happy, but after her father married again and Mary was not sent to school she started spending time reading from her father library and writing stories and poems outside of the house while wandering and staying in the countryside. Thus, even when Mary was not a neglected child during the first years of her life she was mainly introvert as she focused on reading and writing mostly in the countryside rather than playing with other kids.
This quote means that no matter how much you wish you had done something differently, or that you could take back a word you had said, or that you should have said something when you remained silent, it doesn't do any good. What happened, happened. You can't take it back, you can't make amends...you can't go back to that time/opportunity and use it better. What this means is that you can't waste your life. Don't sit atound, constantly misusing the oppurtunities that God has given you! Get out there and LIVE with NO regrets!!! otherwise you'll be living with the regret for the rest of your life :) I hope this helped you out! :) Goodluck!
