Read the following excerpt patricia hampl’s “the need to say it” and answer the question.
she kept her distance from the printed word of english, but she lavished attention on her lodge newspaper which came once a month, written in the quaint nineteenth-century czech she and her generation had brought to america before the turn of the century. like a wedding cake saved from the feast, this language, over the years, had become a fossil, still recognized but no longer something to be put in the mouth.

1. her grandmother enjoyed reading current events from her native town and country.
2. her grandmother held english books far away from her face.
3. her grandmother was jealous of the her newspaper.
4. her grandmother also read her local newspaper.

The correct answer is 1. Her Grandmother enjoyed reading current events from her native town and country.

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented, the author explains her grandmother did not read any paper in English "She kept her distance from the printed word of English" but instead she focuses on a newspaper written in Czech "she lavished attention on her lodge newspaper which came once a month" despite the language was not used anymore.

This suggests the grandmother moved from the Czech Republic or a similar European country to America and she is reluctant to read in a different language or know about the events that occur in the place where she lives, instead the grandmother is interested in reading current events of her country and town. Thus, the author implies "Her Grandmother enjoyed reading current events from her native town and country."
