"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.

1. How would you describe the tone and purpose of these excerpts from McNeil's oral history?

Setler [38]

Answer:

the tone used in McNeil's oral history is confessional and the purpose seems to be that by making simple, humble statements the narrator is able to present his own morality and his struggles in statements and not as pleadings.

Explanation:

these excerpts are from a narrator who comes from a marginalized community engaging in a protest against the government. this kind of oration is known as deceptively simple.

on the surface, the text seems uninviting and simplistic. but the layer of rebellion is subdued by the matter of factly tone to become more of a defiance to which the common person can easily identify and sympathize with. It also shows the strength of the narrator by not betraying their emotions to the reader.
