Chronology check: sources is significant when tied to usefulness. is the best answer. It fits Wider world depth assessment requirements within Paper 1 Section B source-analysis requirements and directly supports Evaluate the usefulness of two sources using content, provenance and contextual knowledge. Check this by using sequence, turning point, period, before, after, continuity, change; do not choose a distractor simply because it sounds historical.
Explanation
The correct option is sources is significant when tied to. This MCQ is about Which judgement is best supported, not just general recall. The correct option works because it matches the period context of Paper 1 Section B: Wider world depth studies and uses the same evidence base as Evaluate the usefulness of two sources using content, provenance and contextual knowledge. The rejected options are weaker: 1) A broad opinion without context.; 2) A consequence described as a cause.; 3) An interpretation treated as factual evidence.. To decide between them, students should place, order, connect, contrast the option against chronology, evidence and the learning objective, then keep evidence separate from opinion and interpretation.
