If your options are:

<span>A. It allowed future legislators to reword the constitution.
B. It allowed future legislators to abolish the constitution
C. It allowed future legislators to amend the constitution.
D. all of the above

I would say the answer is </span>C. It allowed future legislators to amend the constitution. This article basically says that the Constitution doesn't have to remain identical until the end of time (however perfect or adequate it is). It can be changed (amended) under certain conditions - if two thirds of the houses or a few states agree about it, they can call a convention and propose the changes they would like to make.
