Answer Key and Explanations
1. b) has evolved – Present perfect indicates evolution from past to
present impact, matching "has evolved from... into" in the text.
2. a) that are deeply rooted – Defining relative clause with "that are"
specifies the journeys; full clause mirrors text structure.
3. b) is commonly understood – Present simple passive describes
general truth about definition.
4. c) can generate – Modal "can" expresses possibility of outcomes
from encounters.
5. c) after preposition – Gerund follows "undertaking" after implied
preposition in context of elites' activities.
6. b) driven – Past participle in reduced relative clause shows cause,
equivalent to "which was driven by."
7. c) have justified – Present perfect shows ongoing relevance of past
revenues to current investments.
8. c) can reduce – Modal for potential benefits of managed tourism.
9. c) which is – Non-defining relative clause adds information about
Armenia's features.
10. b) are met – Present simple passive in first conditional for real future
possibility.
