I'm not a sociologist, but here are some questions for you.

What does "elite" mean and how does it fit into choice a.

Is "historical exclusion" the only way people can become familiar with different cultural forms? That's what this choice is implying.

Again, in choice c -- clarification of terms -- you'd need to be absolutely clear on what is meant by "historical exclusion." And are only the arts affected??

You probably need to go back into your lecture notes and/or text to get the full picture.
