Practice Question
In context, which revision of the underlined portion would best combine sentences 7 and 8 (reproduced below)? Docile animals like antelope are easier to catch. A predominance of their bones could suggest that hunters of the time were not capable of regularly capturing more dangerous prey.
Answer Choices
- A: catch, a
- B: catch, so a
- C: catch, but a
- D: catch, for a
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'catch, so a' because 'so' indicates a cause-effect relationship, explaining why a predominance of antelope bones suggests less skilled hunters. Options A, C, and D do not convey this logical connection as effectively.
