I think the correct answers from the choices listed above are options A, C and D. The average sentence length was longer before because authors included more clauses and phrases in sentences, the archaic spelling of words used by authors was considerably longer and  the convention at that time was for authors to use several words to say something that people today say in a few words. Hope this helps.
