Answer:

B. Is there evidence that supports Pliny’s description?

Explanation:

In the excerpt, Pliny is describing a particularly strong earthquake in the region sorrounding Mount Vesuvious, presumably affecting the cities of Pompey and Naples.

In order to see if the information in the excerpt is true, researches should look for evidence that supports the occurence of a strong earthquake in the area, during the time when the letter was written. There are many techniques to look for evidence, from archeology to earth sciences.
