While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes: • The Gullah are a group of African Americans who have lived in parts of the southeastern United States since the 18th century. • Gullah culture is influenced by West African and Central African traditions. • Louise Miller Cohen is a Gullah historian, storyteller, and preservationist. • She founded the Gullah Museum of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, in 2003. • Vermelle Rodrigues is a Gullah historian, artist, and preservationist. • She founded the Gullah Museum of Georgetown, South Carolina, in 2003. The student wants to emphasize the duration and purpose of Cohen’s and Rodrigues’s work. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
","rationale_html":"Choice C is the best answer. The sentence emphasizes both the duration (the length of time) and the purpose of Cohen’s and Rodrigues’s work by noting that the women have been working since 2003 to preserve Gullah culture. Choice A is incorrect. While the sentence emphasizes what visitors to Cohen’s and Rodrigues’s museums can learn, it doesn’t mention the duration or purpose of the women’s work. Choice B is incorrect. While the sentence emphasizes the purpose of Cohen’s and Rodrigues’s work, it doesn’t mention the duration of that work (the length of time the women have been working to preserve Gullah culture). Choice D is incorrect. While the sentence emphasizes where and when Gullah culture developed, it doesn’t mention the duration or purpose of Cohen’s and Rodrigues’s work. 16 SAT PRACTICE TEST #10 ANSWER EXPLANATIONS
