Solution

Checking C-D: The drought has driven Samburu men to leave for months in search of pasture, and in their absence, it is becoming more on addressing deforestation while protecting the livelihood of communities that depend on the forest. The sentence is contextually incorrect as it fails to put a complete meaning altogether. The first part ends with when Samburu men are absent in search of pasture and the second part is about protecting the livelihood of communities that depend on the forest. Both the parts have no connection with each other. Thus, the pair C-D becomes invalid. This eliminates options B and C straightway. Checking B-E: Community-based projects have the potential to empower women and lift entire communities in sub-Saharan Africa acceptable for Samburu women to work for money and participate in decision making. Both the parts have no connection with each other. So, B-E is an invalid pair. This eliminates option D straightway. Checking C-E: The drought has driven Samburu men to leave for months in search of pasture, and in their absence, it is becoming more acceptable for Samburu women to work for money and participate in decision making. The sentence is correct as it conveys a proper meaning. So, C-E is a valid pair. Checking A-F: As regional drought pushes communities toward a humanitarian crisis and climate change disrupts pastoralists’ traditional way of life, traditional gender roles are also shifting. The sentence is correct as it conveys a proper meaning. So, A-F is a valid pair. Evidently, option A is the correct answer.
