I would say it is A. Shahrazad's goal was to postpone her death by stopping her storytelling by dawn so the king would spare her to finish that day's story the next night. I would not say it is B. because if she had finished her story the first night, she would never had been able to stay alive for those 1001 nights. It is not C or D. either, because she never finishes her stories(until the 1001th night, in which the king decided he wouldn't kill her after all) and the storytelling is not disappointing because she always finishes the story the next day.

The answer is A: Shahrazad’s storytelling in 1001 Nights achieves its goal because she never finishes her stories.

Shahrazad is the female character and narrator of the Middle Eastern opus called <em>One Thousand and One Nights</em>. In this compilation of stories Shahrazad volunteers to spend a night with the Monarch Shahryar who, after discovering his first wife was unfaithful to him, decided to marry a different virgin every night and behead her the following morning in order to make sure that they would not be unfaithful. The narrator of the story, and last wife of the Monarch, develops a ploy to have him listen to a story that she tells the first night spent with him. She avoid finishing the story the first night, thus securing her life until she would finish it the next evening, but she then continues with a different and more exciting story that makes the Monarch spare her life, on and on, for a 1001 nights, after which, he falls in love with her and spares her life indefinitely.
