Sloane Hall · Answer 1

The correct answer would be B: A literary scholar's essays on Shakespeare's characters.

Explanation:

The reason this would be correct is because a scholar's essays would most probably be more credible than a blog or website. It was written by a scholar, after all, and would probably have been more thought through and less biased than some of the other options.

P. S.

I just took a practice test with this question in it, and when I chose answer B, it was correct.
