Read the passage below and answer the questions (47 – 50):





Verbal art is composed and transmitted verbally, while literature is composed in writing and transmitted in writing. Yet it is obvious that these two traditions have not followed independent courses, but have intermingled and influenced one another. One result has been tales, proverbs, or other forms of verbal art which have been reworked and adapted to literary standards of style and propriety, and are thereafter transmitted by writing or printing. This would include not only the utilization of the materials of folklore but also the use of folktales from other lands for children in our own society. For the lack of a better term, these may be referred to as literary adaptations.





There are instances where materials from written or printed resources have been incorporated into the verbal tradition, and in the course of time have been reworked and modified in accordance with its standards. These we may call folkloriazation.











47. Which is the correct idea?





(A) Verbal art and literature are independent and have their own influences drawn from within.





(B) Verbal art and literature are interdependent and hardly intermingled.

Answers: (C)

(B) Folktales

(C) Reworked and modified print material entering into written tradition.
