Read the sentences and answer the question that follows. chinese historians have tended to view history as a series of repeating cycles; western historians have tended to view history as a progression. this divergent view has led some western historians to assume that the chinese did not value technological advances. which word best completes the passage above?

a. ideally
b. incorrectly
c. succinctly
d. unlikely

The answer is B. Incorreclty.

Explanation:

Unlikely cannot be possible amon the other as it is an adjective, and here we need an adverb, like the rest, so option "d" isn't possible. Ideally means perfectly or according to an ideal so this sounds rather strange according to this context. Succinctly means clearly or briefly and well, we cannot "briefly assume" we either assume or not, as a whole. And finally the divergence or in other words, difference, led the Western Historians to incorrectly assume something from the others.

the difference between an explicit and implicit meaning is that the explicit meaning of a poem is that the detail is exactly defined. nothing is left to interpretation. an implicit meaning is an implied meaning. kabir's poetry is both explicit and implicit in that it can be interpreted on different levels. the explicit meaning leaves nothing to interpretation while the implicit meaning leaves lots open to interpretation. an example of this is found in the poem "rumi and the spiritual lover".
