Explanation:
In The Secret Garden, Mary Lennox is sent to live with her uncle, Archibald Craven, after a cholera outbreak kills her parents, whith whom she was living in India, although she rarely got the opportunity to see them.
Master Craven is still grieving the death of his wife, an event that occurs ten years prior to the start of the novel. Mistress Craven had a garden that Master Craven locks up after her death.
Mary, a curious young girl, wants desperately to find a way to enter the garden, and so she workes tirelessly to find something that may let her enter. She gets relatively far when she hears crying from a section of the mansion, which she has been told she may not enter.
However, Mary disregards these rules and finds Colin Craven, her uncle's son, who, just like his father, is a hunchback. Mary befriends Colin, and together they continue their search for a way to enter the secret garden.
Answer: A.) At this point in his life he was familiar with the basic science of electricity.
Explanation: This answer makes the most sense out of all of them and the sentence gives reason enough to believe said character has some knowledge on the laws of electricity.

Meaning said character had some prior knowledge, so we can assume he is familiar with the basic science of electricity.

Explanation:
We use a suspended hyphen when you have a compound modifier that is interrupted by some other word that is in fact not part of the modifier.
I believe the answer to your question is B) Over 5,000 years ago, ancient Egyptians used wind to sail ships on the Nile River.
this sentence from the passage would be irrelevant because it does not contain usable information on wind turbines as well as the fact that it is a time in history therefore it is irrelevant because you need information that is relatively up-to-date.
