Answer:

<h2>C. abandoned property.</h2>

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

A. lost property.

B. mislaid property.

C. abandoned property.

D.None of these are correct.

Abandoned property refers to an asset that it doesn't have an owner after years of inactivity. In real state, the property would be owned by the state. However, this case is simpler, because the neighbour just threw away the fan, and Jonah picked it up from the garbage. Literally, the neighbour abandoned the article.

On the other hand, other options don't apply, because the fan is not a mislaid property, it's not missing from its owner, it wasn't lost.

Therefore the correct answer is C.
