Read the following passage carefully and answer questions 13 to 18.
Story telling is not in our genes. Neither it is an evolutionary history.
It is the essence of whatmakes us Human.Human beings progress
by telling stories. One event can result in a great variety of storiesbeing
told about it. Sometimes those stories differ greatly. Which stories are
picked up and repeatedand which ones are dropped and forgotten often
determines how we progress. Our history,knowledge and understanding
are all the collections of the few stories that survive. This includesthe stories
that we tell each other about the future. And how the future will turn out dependspartly, possibly largely, on which stories we collectively choose to believe.Some stories are designed to spread fear and concern. This is because some story-tellers feelthat there is a need to raise some tensions.
