According to what you are describing, the plot device used is the "in media res"
This technique In Media Res means " in the middle of things", and that is exactly how it works, in media res is to start a story in the middle of the story itself instead of its beginning, that is, start the story of the facts showing the characters already involved in the conflict that structures the story, using this technique allows a more dramatic beginning of narration: the story will begin with the protagonist already in trouble, and with this we will capture the interest of the reader from the first moment.

B) The daily work continued; nay, it actually increased;
Something that is happening on a consistent basis. It also gives the feeling that it is work to make it persistent. In option B, the statement "daily work" indicates that something is done daily which supports the idea of persistent. The sentence containing the line "The daily work continued; nay, it actually increased" also includes the description "with an astonishing pertinacity." Pertinacity means persistent determination. The brain failing and life slipping away does not show any persistent determination. Also, the statement that she inquired with acute anxiety does not how any persistent determination.
b. <em>he describes the event unemotionally to avoid bias and sentiment</em>. This is the correct answer.
Frederick Douglass, a former slave, wrote this memoir in 1845. The event he describes is related to the moment he left a plantation- Colonel Lloyd's - and the fact he was being carried to Baltimore by sail. There is not any emotional language in this description. As this narrative was considered a treatise against abolition, the writer must have avoided any sentimental language.
These options are not right:
a. he describes the event chronologically to make the account factual. ( The event is described but chronology is not stated).
c. he uses words such as remember to set a sad, nostalgic tone. ( The word remember is mentioned because it is a memoir. The words does not necessarily indicate any nostalgic tone).
d. he uses nautical terms, such as aft, to establish his credibility. ( The writer's credibility will not be reflected by his use of this specific vocabulary).
