Answer: A. were starting to think the cat had gotten her tongue

Explanation:

An idiom is a sentence whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal meanings of each word. The idiom "has the cat got your tongue?" is well-known and it is a question usually asked to someone who is silent and refuses to speak even when addressed.

Other famous idioms are:

to beat around the bush

to cut someone a slack

to pull somebody's leg

to be under the weather

A famous singer recently came to give a talk to the students at your school about her life and work. Your head teacher has asked
Harrizon [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no further specific references, we can comment on the following.

This is my report.

It is always interesting to know more details about the life of famous people. In this case, this female singer that gave a lecture about the life of a musician was interesting, although she talked in general terms. I think it would have been more interesting if she could have talked about the details of the music business for new musicians or the way she had to overcome adversities to become a popular artist.

I say this because there are many texts and references on the internet about the music business. However, there is such little information about the specifics, the details. And popular artists like her could be able to share good information with students about the details of the music business.

My suggestion is that we could invite these famous people but we should ask them to center their speech on specific issues so the talk could be useful. If they talk about general issues or about their lives, many books and pages already include their bios and general information.

We, as students, need more focused topics, that only listen to general information or the artist's public life that is already known.

In these speeches, consider that King says “1963 is not an end, but a beginning,” while Malcolm X states in his 1964 speech that
makkiz [27]

sample answer from palto


King’s speech is from the point of view of a fellow African American who seeks civil rights and will not rest until the African American community achieves equal rights in the United States, but only through nonviolent methods. He states that African Americans will keep striving for freedom, but at the same time, he encourages the African American community to not indulge in any wrong or violent deeds. Malcolm X also attempts to encourage the African American community to revolt against destructive inequality, but he advocates using force and violence when necessary. His words “the ballot or the bullet” are meant to serve as an ultimatum to the government. If African Americans are not allowed to vote, then they may turn to violence to achieve their goals.
