Mma Ramotswe had a detective agency in Africa, at the foot of Kgale Hill. These were its assets; a tiny white van, two desks, two chairs, a telephone, and an old typewriter. Then there was a teapot, in which Mma Ramotswe - the only private lady detective in Botswana - brewed red bush tea. And three mugs - one for herself, one for her secretary and one for the client. What else does a detective agency really need? Detective agencies rely on human intuition and intelligence, both of which Mma Ramotswe had in abundance.
(1) But there was also the view, which again would appear on no inventory.
(2) No inventory would ever include those, of course.
(3) She had an intelligent secretary too.
(4) She was a good detective and a good woman.
(5) What she lacked in possessions was more than made up by a natural
shrewdness.

The paragraph mentions the tangible parts of the inventory that Mma Ramotswe
had at the agency, and ‘human intuition and intelligence’ Option 2 concludes the
paragraph by stating that ‘no inventory would ever be able to include those.
Options 3, 4 and 5 are eliminated in comparison to options 1 and 2 which continue
the idea of the inventory.
Option 1, though continuing the idea of inventory is far inferior to option 2. The
‘those’ in option 2 scores over option 1.
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
