Because verbal context effects (when they do occur) are presumed to result from a change of meaning, the broader role of word meaning in recognition was examined. ... It is likely that word meaning is encoded during study of lists of words but is infrequently used in making recognition decisions.
I easily finished my homework
How far chewing gum went to be a known item
C) No
A can be removed because it is not talking about politics like the question asked. B can be removed because the essay does not speak of politics. I decide to remove D because after reading it, the text does not mention how newspapers develop over time. Instead, it talks about how newspapers were made and how throughout different areas. This leads to answer choice C, which truthfully claims that the author focuses on the technology (in this case, it simply means tools or items) used to make different types of newspapers.
