According to the Novel K.P.C is a social media language that means__________

Analyze the question: This is a JAMB Literature-in-English / English Language question based on the prescribed novel for 2019, The Life Changer by Khadija Abubakar Jalli. It asks what the abbreviation "K.P.C" means in the story.

Explain the concept: In the novel, the characters use social media shorthand. Abbreviations like this are a form of "slang" or "text language" that young people use to communicate quickly. Questions like this test whether you read the prescribed text and remember specific details.

Work through the options:

• A. keep places clean: Sounds sensible, but it's not a typical social media abbreviation and doesn't fit the context of the story.
• B. keep party clothes: Not connected to the theme of the novel.
• C. keep parent clueless: This matches the novel's idea of young people hiding their online activities from their parents, which is a major theme of the story. The meaning also fits the letters K (keep), P (parent), C (clueless).
• D. kind party care: Does not make sense as a phrase or fit the context.

Answer: C. keep parent clueless

Tip: For prescribed-text questions, match the letters of the abbreviation to the words, then ask, "Which meaning fits the story's themes?" In this novel, secrecy between youths and parents about social media is a clear theme, so the "parent clueless" option stands out. Also, make sure you read your prescribed novel's key episodes and terms before the exam, as the questions often pick specific details like this.
