I dont understand why there is just a single q?? Also, i believe D is also not wrong. So either the question statement should be changed or that I am wrong.



Hi deep31993,
Option D is incorrect,as what's mentioned in the passage is: "Sometimes this is because of the lack of historical documentation from certain groups, but other times it’s because those who are telling the story have an agenda", implying that sometimes, the differences in how an event is reported can be attributed to lack of historical resources, but that's not always the case, whereas B is clearly stated in the passage as : "Historiography tries to take into account that, because historians are human, two historians might have vastly different interpretations of the same set of facts in light of their cultural contexts and the accounts they choose to value of the same event. ", making B a better choice than D.


Hope this Helps.
Thanks.
