Question
The passage suggests that Williams, Bell, and Matsuda would most likely agree with which one of the following statements regarding personal stories?
Answer: Option B
:
B
Look at the closing lines of this passage “the engaging power of narrative might play a crucial, positive role in the process of legal reconstruction by overcoming differences in background and training and forming a new collectivity based on emotional empathy”. Option (b) is supported by these lines.
Option (a) goes against what has been stated in this passage.
Look at the lines “Such alternative narratives can shatter the complacency of the legal establishment and disturb its tranquility”. But these lines do not state that personal stories are more likely to shatter the complacency of the legal establishment and disturb the tranquility than other forms of discourse to do so (in fact all the other forms of discourse are not mentioned in this passage), so option (c) is wrong.
Option (d) is not supported by this passage.
