Yep, that's basically the whole task. To change the passage to become more 'upbeat', yet still share similar words to the previous words, the following could be changed to...
trudged= plodded
shuffled= staggered
scrutinised= questioned
sparse=meagre
closed in= confined
anxious= eager (Although eager and anxious generally do not share a similar definition, in this context they do as 'anxious' is used to describe being excited to do something, and share the same meaning of 'Very eager or concerned to do something or for something to happen'
pried= wrenched
confronted= suddenly exposed
puzzling=baffling
something=remarkable
used=castoff
questioned=pondered
anxious=uneasy

Answer:
Option C. In King Arthur's Knights, Sir Mordred and Sir Agravain were motivated to plot against Sir Lancelot as they both wanted the kingdom fro themselves.
Explanation:
Sir Mordred was King Arthur's son and nephew, from an intimate relationship King Arthur had with his step-sister Morgause, when he did not know they were related. In order to prevent his incestuous affair to become public, King Arthur ordered that every kid born on May st, as Mordred was, must be killed. But Mordred survived, and he knew that if he managed to kill King Arthur he would be the lawful heir to the throne. Mordred plans the downfall of King Arthur with the help of Sir Agravain, who was King Arthur's nephew. They both participate in the plot against the king as they both were rightful heirs and wanted the kingdom to themselves and King Arthur out of the picture and the round table.
