I believe the answer is:
A) The author presents a problem the characters face and its solution.
Explanation:
I believe it is A because it shows a problem about how they were trying to get to Thailand on a boat and were worried about pirates coming after them because of the two teenage girls and the mother. So the father took the five year old and the three year old so that they could travel to Thailand safely because the pirates wouldn't bother them if they only had two little children.
"Inaugurates" most often means to introduce or to start something, for example a policy or period. It can also specifically refer to admitting someone into public office (i.e. "We will inaugurate the new president next week"), or signifying the first use of a public organization or project (i.e. "Will you be attending the park's inauguration on May 1st?").
