Solution

The correct option is B Arbitrary
'Arbitrary' means 'subject to individual will or judgement'. Since the sentence makes it clear that the evaluations are not concrete (due to the fact that folk art is neither accepted or rejected), the best word that describes this is arbitrary. 'Orthodox' means traditional or conventional. 'Estimable' means admirable or worthy. 'Perfunctory' means mechanical or thoughtless. Thus, the options B, C and D are incorrect in the context of the sentence.
So, the correct answer is A) arbitrary.
