A = We can use "style" in writing only when the "sentence and words" are ambigious, so we cannot say it is primary function.

B =correct = Yes, intended meaning can partly be from "sentence and words" ----correct

C = unrelated to passage -ruled out

D = unrelated ----ruled out

E = "aesthetic value" = unrelated to passage
