Question 8
GAMCQ2 marksNeeds review
Based only on the following passage, which one of the options can be inferred with certainty?
When the congregation sang together, Apeno would also join, though her little screams were not quite audible because of the group singing. But whenever there was a special number, trouble would begin; Apeno would try singing along, much to the embarrassment of her mother. After two or three such mortifying Sunday evenings, the mother stopped going to church altogether until Apeno became older and learnt to behave.
At home too, Apeno never kept quiet; she hummed or made up silly songs to sing by herself, which annoyed her mother at times but most often made her become pensive. She was by now convinced that her daughter had inherited her love of singing from her father who had died unexpectedly away from home.
