The official answer to the third question ("D") is horrible too. It seems to be based on the assumption that only some people were buried with possessions because only they belonged to a particular religion. It seems quite a stretch, and there is no evidence in the passage to support the assumption that there was more than one religion active in this small community (and frankly this seems highly unlikely that this would have happened at all in this period of history. We're not talking about 21st century New York!)
Maybe its the word "often" ?
