  1. Can anyone explain why (A) rather than © is correct answer for question 6? With this piece, the author clearly proved that bias in textbooks both exist and that it affects children's attitudes: T[color=#2A2A2A][font=Trebuchet MS]wo researchers, for example, have conducted studies that suggest that children’s attitudes about particular cultures are strongly influenced by the textbooks used in schools.[/font][/color] Given the conclusion "review of how textbooks depict", it's clearly time to proceed to what should be done to resolve the problem -- rather than going back to what biases exist and how to evaluate them. And the closest thing to "resolving" the problem is to turn to alternative textbooks (and therefore methods countering traditional approach). Existence of such textbooks follows from "In some textbooks are depicted as more .... than Natives" -- if some have biases, some others likely don't have them.
