The correct answer is A. In the Middle Ages, spices that are now ordinary were rare imports from faraway places.

Explanation

The excerpt talks about traders who traded in black pepper grown in southwestern India, which meant too long a journey to bring these products to Europe. In the first place they had to be transported to Arabia, and from there to Syria where European merchants acquired it to take it to the different kingdoms of Europe as the author mentions when saying that "From India the pepper was shipped across to Arabia, where camel caravans would carry it all the way to Syria. The Italians could purchase enough pepper in Syria to carry with them to the next Champagne fair". According to the above, the correct answer is A. In the Middle Ages, spices that are now ordinary were rare imports from faraway places.

In the following conversation which group discussion technique does Han most clearly show?
zepelin [54]

Han applies option c- he is challenging the credibility of sources.  Ramona ,surprised, asks him if the evidence from Pettit's book  was from fictional sources. Hans supports his claim  through a review of  Giovanni Fiorini's book. The material from this book which had been written by a story-teller and not by a historian was used by Pettit.

Option a- is wrong. Hans is not determining new research goals. He is questioning the credibility of sources.

Option b-is wrong. Hans is evaluating what an author said about Giovanni Fiorini's book. The material from this 'great' source was used by Pettit in <em>his </em>book.

Option d is wrong. Ramona is asking clarifying questions. She wants Hans to justify his claim. This states that the credibility of sources can be questioned.
