2. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the
answer to Part A?
O A "It turns out that a good handful of rappers use a greater
vocabulary than Shakespeare did, for the same sized
block of lyrics." (Paragraph 1)
OB "and the fact that whereas there are many good ways of
estimating his vocabulary from concordances and good
complete editions, the same was not true for his peers.
Shakespeare was just better documented and his
vocabulary was easier to measure." (Paragraph 7-8)
Сс "So what is it that fascinates people about vocabulary
size? It seems to offer a neat quantitative measure for
literary quality. But this does not stand up to
scrutiny." (Paragraph 14)
O D "The good thing about busting the Shakespeare
vocabulary myth is that we can now avoid that
particular dead-end in working out what makes his use
of language so remarkable ford explore more promising
ones, such as the abundance and creativity of his
metaphors" (Paragraph 15)
