Question: Select the excerpt from "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan that best describes language bias.

Answer: 1. I've heard other terms used, "limited English," for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people's perceptions of the limited-English speaker.
The question is asking us to select the excerpt from "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan that best describes language bias and the answer is that it is the first excerpt " I've heard other terms used, "limited English," for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people's perceptions of the limited-English speaker.". The bias being described here is that people with limited English would also be in other ways inferior to fluent English speakers, and the excerpt criticises this statement. Other options don't shor any bias, although 3. for example discusses the power of language - but it does not show a bias in favior or against fluent or non-fluent speakers.

Why do some words have two past tense forms (e.g. “dreamed” vs. “dreamt”)?

Answers

This is essentially language change at work. Do you know how Shakespeare sometimes sounds "weird" to us? that's because English has changed since then.

Language change is not abrupt, but gradual, and while the change takes place sometimes two forms are used: so while it is likely that in years to come only dreamed will be correct, and in the past only "dreamt", currently the change is not complete and both are correct.

Does “either A or B ” preclude “both A and B”?

Answers

No., Either A and B, do not preclude both A and B.
Either means any of the 2. Thus when you say, either a and b.
meaning the answer may be A or B.
But when you say Both A and B.
Thus this simply means that the answer is both A and B.

=> Either is not the same as both.
Therefore the answer is NO.

For example:
When are you coming:
Answer = either today or tomorrow, meaning your coming maybe today or may be tomorrow. You're not sure.
