The correct option is C. The line but the ears of the palefaces could not hear me" suggest about the school personnel do not understand the narrator’s language.

This story's argument/purpose is to demonstrate how poorly Indian boarding school students were treated. They were compelled to act in a certain way and at a certain moment. The author became extremely distressed by this and began to long for her family.

Why did the author want to leave her mother and go to school?

After a few years, the school permitted the author to go see her mother while classes were out. Her mother persuaded her to skip school and stay home throughout the visit.

The hopeless and alienation author experienced at the school as an outsider among white people, as well as her urges for retaliation and rebellion, are symbolic of the frustration and rage felt by all Native Americans at the time who were subjected to white persecution.

Thus, They do not understand the narrator’s language because the author became extremely distressed by this and began to long for her family.
