Question

Why are secondary sources sometimes more accurate than primary sources?

a) secondary source have observed an event themselves
b) secondary sources never have a reason to lie or distort the truth
c) secondary sources can get information from primary sources
d) secondary sources are always written so do not change over time

Answer 1

I think it’s C. I’m not very sure though. It’s definitely not A and B but I do think it is C because normally secondary sources take information from primary sources. Hope this helps in some way :)

Answer 2

Primary Source: A primary source is an original study, document, object, or eyewitness account. ... These are often documents that report, analyze, discuss, or interpret primary sources.
