Question

Read the excerpt from "Benin Plaque: The Oba with Europeans” and consider the accompanying photo. There are several hundred Benin plaques now in European and American museums, and they offer us a remarkable picture of the structure of this West African kingdom. Their main subject is the glorification of the Oba and of his prowess as a hunter and soldier, but they also tell us how the people of Benin saw their first European trading partners. Which statement best describes how the image reinforces the text? The image adds interest to the text by offering a glimpse of the plaques. The image tells a story about a day in the life of Benin culture. The photograph supports the description of the Oba’s role in society. The photograph engages the reader by revealing minute artistic detail.

Answer 2

The image reinforces the text adding interest to it by offering a glimpse of the plaques (first option). This is because we can understand better what the text is saying by looking at a picture instead of imagining it. Or maybe it can be the other way around, once you see the picture it can generates interest in the text and it that way it makes the words more interesting.
