In the first sentence, “ I don’t know what time it was outside at the time” is very awkward. (Time is said more than once and you need to remove it) (outside is also said more than once) I would suggest changing the first sentence completely. Maybe to “ As I wandered around outside the palace, I lost track of the time. A beautiful lake had caught my eye.”
Sentence two contains passive voice which is generally looked down upon in writing.
Sentence two also is almost a run-on sentence. (Some teachers might count it, others might not) I would still suggest changing it.
Your use of transitional phrases is pretty low, which makes the whole piece choppy. (/a strong use of “and”)
I suggest going through the entire thing and using stronger words, just to advance the writing. (Example: instead of using “loud” use “clamorous”) (it seems pretentious but trust me the person grading won't think so)
It's a good start, however, I would suggest going through and really being a huge stickler on some of the sentences. If it's possible, maybe try having multiple people read it over. Different people see different things.
Hope this helped!

Answer: A. The Balinese production portrays Ariel as an animal-like creature, while the Utah Valley University production has Ariel played by two dancers.

Explanation:

The Tempest is a play written by Shakespeare about a former Duke named Prospero and his daughter, Miranda who live on an island with Ariel and Caliban.

Ariel and Caliban have been depicted differently in various plays by the Balinese Production and the Utah Valley University Production.

In the Balinese production, Ariel is described as a small animal like creature with a long tail that is capable of flight.

In the Utah Valley Production however, Ariel is portrayed by two dancers whose bodies are painted and who have feathered leggings on.
