Question

According to the author, which of the following would best advance the kind of work he has done with the Ketengbans?

• A. Increasing the literacy rate among indigenous peoples
• B. Improving the economic conditions of rural Indonesians
• C. Overcoming the Ketengbans suspicions about the motives of researchers
• D. Achieving greater access to the Ketengbans in their natural habitat
• E. Extending the time that researchers spend interviewing indigenous peoples

Answer 1

The correct option is D Achieving greater access to the Ketengbans in their natural habitat

Since the Ketengbans gain knowledge about the birds and other species by spending time in the forests, it should be seen that the conditions are favourable to make their natural habitat easily accessible to them. Hence, Option D is correct. The rest of the options do not express this meaning, hence, incorrect.
