Q12

In the context (e.g., "Persepolis"), the uncle needs a passport badly because he is part of the regime about to be overthrown, so he needs to escape.

The family visits an old friend of Anoushka because he has a hiding place for them, which is a common plot point in stories involving escape and seeking refuge.

After a visit to Turkey, the protagonist's father hides cassette tapes in his coat. This is related to the cultural and political context of the story where such items might be restricted or carry important messages.

Answer:

D. He is part of the regime about to be overthrown
