Tip of the Day Questions based on vocabulary can also be solved using an analytical approach. Analyzing the sentence in which the word is used can give clues towards finding the contextual meaning of the word even if you do not know the dictionary meaning of the word. Last year's Question of the day (27-Apr-11) Filmmaker Nick Broomfield decided to investigate the theories for himself, and took a film crew to visit a number of people associated with Cobain and Love, including Love's estranged father, Cobain's aunt, and one of the couple's former nannies. Broomfield also spoke to Mentors bandleader El Duce, who claimed that Love had offered him $50,000 to kill Cobain, and passed a polygraph administered by polygraph expert Edward Gelb. Though El Duce claimed that he knew who killed Kurt, he failed to mention a name, and offered no evidence to support his assertion. However, during the interview, he mentioned speaking to someone called Alan, before quickly saying,"I mean, my friend" then laughing, saying,"The F.B.I. will have to catch up with him". Broomfield inadvertently captured El Duce's last interview, as he died days later in extremely mysterious circumstances, having passed out on train tracks and being run over. Broomfield titled the finished documentary Kurt & Courtney, and it was released in 1998. In the end, however, Broomfield felt he hadn't uncovered enough evidence to conclude the existence of a conspiracy. In a 1998 interview, Broomfield summed it up by saying, "I think that Cobain committed suicide. I don't think that there's a smoking gun. And I think there's only one way you can explain a lot of things around his death. Not that he was murdered, but that there was just a lack of caring for him. I just think that Courtney had moved on, and he was expendable."
What can we conclude from Broomfield's investigations surrounding Cobain's death?
| OPTIONS | | | | | 1) | Broomfield's investigations yielded mixed reports – there was a lot of conjecture, but no real proof of what actually happened to Cobain. | | | 2) | Broomfield was of the opinion that he couldn't unearth any information on Cobain's death. | | | 3) | Love's involvement in Cobain's death was of paramount importance to Broomfield. | | | 4) | Broomfield's conclusion of suicide is based on the fact that the only person who could prove otherwise had died under mysterious circumstances. | | | 5) | El Duce's involvement in the murder was questionable, but not as questionable as his death under mysterious circumstances. |
