"A still tongue makes a wise head"   is an idiom. Option A is correct.

This saying may mean that someone who does not talk much, but listens to other people, probably has experience, knowledge and good judgement.

An idiom is a type figure of speech which should not be taken literally. It is established by usage that has a meaning not necessarily deductible from those of the individual words.

Idioms convey a particular sentiment, but they do not literally mean what the individual words themselves mean.

In A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, Wollstonecraft contrasts her logic and reasoning with Rousseau’s work.

Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Woman” is a step towards feminist philosophical work which speaks about the rights that the women have been deprived of. She explains in her work that how men and women are equal and hence should receive equal rights. She puts forward the issues of women as they were not allowed to work and had to be dependent on the male member of the family for their living. Her argument insisted on opening doors for women in the field of politics and medicines.

Which statement is symbolic of Reverend Hale’s change?

<span>Danforth: Marshal. Herrick stops. When did Reverend Hale arrive? 

Herrick: It were toward midnight, I think.

Danforth, suspiciously: That is he about here? 

Herrick: He goes among them that will hang, sir. And he prays with them. He sits with Goody Nurse now. And Mr. Parris with him.

</span>Hathorne: Let you question Hale, Excellency; I should not be surprised he have been preaching in Andover lately. Danforth: We’ll come to that; speak nothing of Andover. Parris prays with him. That’s strange.<span>Parris, prayerfully holding up his hands: Excellency, hear me. It is a providence. Reverend Hale has returned to bring Rebecca Nurse to God.</span><span>all of the above
