Question III. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your

Culture is a word in common use with complex meanings, and is derived, like
the term broadcasting, from the treatment and care of the soil and of what grows on it.
It is directly related to cultivation and the adjectives cultural and cultured are part of
the same verbal complex. A person of culture has identifiable attributes, among them
a knowledge of and interest in the arts, literature, and music. Yet the word culture does
not refer solely to such knowledge and interest nor, indeed, to education. At least from
the 19th century onwards, under the influence of anthropologists and sociologists, the
word culture has come to be used generally both in the singular and the plural
(cultures) to refer to a whole way of life of people, including their customs, laws,
conventions, and values
Distinctions have consequently been drawn between primitive and advanced
culture and cultures, between elite and popular culture, between popular and mass
culture, and most recently between national and global cultures. Distinctions have
been drawn too between culture and civilization; the latter is a word derived not, like
culture or agriculture, from the soil, but from the city. The two words are sometimes
treated as synonymous. Yet this is misleading. While civilization and barbarism are
pitted against each other in what seems to be a perpetual behavioural pattern, the use
of the word culture has been strongly influenced by conceptions of evolution in the
19th century and of development in the 20th century. Cultures evolve or develop. They
are not static. They have twists and turns. Styles change. So do fashions. There are
cultural processes. What, for example, the word cultured means has changed
substantially since the study of classical (that is, Greek and Roman) literature,
philosophy, and history ceased in the 20th century to be central to school and
university education. No single alternative focus emerged, although with computers
has come electronic culture, affecting kinds of study, and most recently digital culture.
As cultures express themselves in new forms not everything gets better or more
civilized.
The multiplicity of meanings attached to the word made and will make it
difficult to define. There is no single, unproblematic definition, although many
attempts have been made to establish one. The only non-problematic definitions go
back to agricultural meaning (for example, cereal culture or strawberry culture) and
medical meaning (for example, bacterial culture or penicillin culture). Since in
anthropology and sociology we also acknowledge culture clashes, culture shock, and
counter-culture, the range of reference is extremely wide.
1. According to the passage, the word culture_ .
A. is related to the preparation and use of land for farming
B. develops from Greek and Roman literature and history
C. comes from a source that has not been identified
D. derives from the same root as civilization does

history
