What do the following lines from the novel help readers understand?

"This tradition does not exist for Bengalis, naming a son after the father or grandfather, a daughter after mother or, grandmother. This sign of respect in Europe and America, this symbol of heritage and lineage, would be ridiculed in India."

1) Historical context
2)Socioeconomic Context
3)Gender Context
4)Cultural Context

Respuesta :

The answer is 4)Cultural Context. I just finished the test and this answer was correct.

Cultural Context

Culture refers to a person's food, clothes, language, customs, traditions, etc. In these lines, they are explaining the tradition of naming children. The lines describe how people in India do not name their children after a family member. The tradition is commonly found in Europe and America but not in India. Gender context would focus on one specific gender, but these lines don't do that. Socioeconomic context would explain the different social classes. Historical context would describe a historical event. These are not done in these lines.
