3.It can be inferred from the passage that a writer such as Eugenio Fernandez Mendez would most likely agree with which of the following statements concerning members of minority ethnic groups?
A. It is necessary for the members of such groups to adapt to the

B. The members of such groups generally encounter a culture that
is static and undifferentiated.
C. Social mobility is the most important feature of the experience of
members of such groups.
D. Social scientists should emphasize the cultural and political
aspects of the experience of members of such groups.
E. The assimilation of members of such groups requires the force
abandonment of their authentic national roots
You have given the answer as E-
The assimilation of members of such groups requires the force
abandonment of their authentic national roots
NOw, there is no such explicit mention in the passage suggesting the "abandonment of the national roots."
There is, of course, a strong tradition of cultural accom- modation among other Puerto Rican thinkers. The writings of Eugenio Fernandez Mendez clearly exemplify this tradition, and many supporters of Puerto Rico's commonwealth status share the same universalizing orientation. But the Puerto Rican intellectuals who have written most about the assimilation process in the United States all advance cultural nationalist views, advocating the preservation of minority cultural distinctions and rejecting what they see as the subjugation of colonial nationalities.
In the above context,A holds.
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button
