Question

Sita could not read or write because ________________________

• A. She lived alone on the island.
• B. There was no school on the island.
• C. She lived with her grandparents, who could not read or write.
• D. She could not see.

Answer 1

The correct option is C She lived with her grandparents, who could not read or write.

Option C is correct because it is clearly mentioned towards the end of the passage that - 'But neither of her grandparents could read or write, and as a result, Sita couldn’t read or write either.'

There is no evidence in the passage to suggest that Options A, B, and D are the right answers.

Hence, these are incorrect.
