Read the passage below and answer the questions (73 that follow based on passage

The functional approach to the categorization of oral literature actually has focused upon the relationships between forms of verbal art and existing cultural, psychological, and social needs. Yet the anthropologists who pursued this mode of inquiry were not concerned with the ontology but the phenomenology of folklore kinds. Their distinction of genre is based not upon any intrinsic qualities of oral literary forms, but upon the perception and identification of their attributes by the people themselves. The functional approach is concerned not with what genres are, but with what the members of the society say they are. Thus the taxonomy of verbal art has become actually a categorization of cultural experiences, which are represented in the overt cultural attitudes toward themes and forms. In most cases, these attitudes are represented in the set of relations of belief and non belief which has since become the basis for the categorization of formal expressions and for the analytical interpretation of their function in expressions.
