The correct answer is A. Prewriting stage of the writing process
Explanation:
The prewriting stage is the first stage in writing that involves generating ideas for writing, selecting the topic and main idea, and organizing the content of a text. This stage includes multiple strategies such as brainstorming, outlining, prewriting, and looping.
In the freewriting strategy, the writer lets his/her thoughts flow naturally to generate ideas about a topic by writing for a specific time without stopping or focusing on grammar, order, or connections, which is useful to have fresh ideas before writing the text. Similarly, in looping the writer writes freely but he/she focuses on a specific idea, which is selected from the text he/she wrote using the freewriting strategy. This means both strategies help writers to generate ideas before writing and therefore they belong to the prewriting stage.
