Part 1: An Introduction to Elizabethan England

Question 4 • *HSA 26-27 English IV A -IC

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England.Food is valuable in Elizabethan England, far more so than in the modern world. A flock of 180 sheep is worth more than the average detached house. The difficulties of transportation mean that the food supply depends heavily on what grows locally and how much surplus is available. It also depends on the season.

Answer
A
During the Elizabethan period, food was often scarce.
B
During the Elizabethan period, houses were very cheap.
C
During the Elizabethan period, sheep were in short supply.
D
During the Elizabethan period, food was mainly shipped in.

Explanation

The excerpt says food was much more valuable than in the modern world, and that supply depended on local crops, surplus, and the season. These limits suggest food could be scarce in Elizabethan England. It does not say houses were cheap, sheep were generally in short supply, or food was mainly shipped in.
