Answer Details
Ali was honest and quite as a schoolboy, but too much drinking has now changed his temperament and loosened his tongue. Explanation: The sentence suggests that Ali's drinking habit has changed his behavior and speech.

"Loosened his tongue" means that Ali has become more talkative or expressive, often without thinking or filtering his words, due to the effects of alcohol.
