Now, we see the words in options (A) and (C) only fulfil this requirement, we analyse only these two options. It is easy to understand that the word qualifies cannot be filled here since it doesn’t make any sense. The sentence is talking about how language helps people in communicating or expressing oneself. Word ' qualifies' refers to some kind of eligibility that one needs.
