Explanation:

Trevor Noah is a famous South African comedian and TV host. In his memoirs, Noah tells his story from a beautiful and difficult perspective: the one of a mixed-race boy who was born and raised while the Apartheid still reigned. Noah's stories are permeated with issues such as racism and cultural diversity. That is the reason why he includes the original Afrikaans word "heks" in the story rather than simply using the English equivalent "witch" on its own. There is more to it than just a word. There is a whole representation of cultural background and setting. With that in mind, we can choose letter D as the correct option:
