Question 2 • TX-English IV B

Which sentence best helps readers visualize the Benin plaque?

Answer
A
“In these chapters we are looking at objects that chart how Europe first encountered and then traded with the wider world in the sixteenth century.”
B
“There are several hundred Benin plaques now in European and American museums, and they offer us a remarkable picture of the structure of this West African kingdom.”
C
“It is about 40 centimetres (16 inches) square; its colour strikes you as coppery rather than brassy, and there are five figures on it, three Africans and two Europeans.”

Explanation

Choice C gives concrete details that help readers picture the plaque: its approximate size, coppery color, and the five figures shown on it. Choices A and B provide historical context and information about the plaques, but they do not describe what this plaque looks like.
