<h3>What is the author's message?</h3>
In the paragraph that we are analyzing here, the author tells readers that two instruments now commonly used in American music were originally created and crafted by Africans - the drum and the banjo.
The author does not say the instruments did not change. Quite the opposite, by describing how they were made, he shows that the materials used were quite different. We can eliminate option A.
The author does not draw any parallels between African and American instruments and how they are made. We can also eliminate option C. The same way, the author does not mention similarities in African and American songwriting styles. Option D is also incorrect.
The correct answer is option B. By tracing the origins of specific instruments, the author begins to show the impact of African musical elements on American music. In other words, were it not for African influences, certain instruments would not be used in American music nowadays.
