What is the benefit of reading oral history and archival sources together?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A more balanced historical understanding emerges by combining local memories with written evidence

Oral history brings out people’s memories, experiences, and local perspectives, while archival sources provide written documents, dates, and administrative evidence. Reading them together helps a historian identify limitations and biases and reach a more balanced conclusion. Option B is incorrect because no one type of source is automatically more reliable. Exam tip: In source-based questions, compare the perspective, purpose, and evidence of each source.
