Here is the full passage for this question:
<span>There is likewise another diversion which is only shown before the emperor and the empress, and first minister, upon particular occasions. The emperor lays on the table three fine silken threads of six inches long; one is purple, the other yellow, and the third white. These threads are proposed as prizes for those persons whom the emperor has a mind to distinguish by a peculiar mark of his favor. . . . The emperor holds a stick in his hands, both ends parallel to the horizon, while the candidates advancing, one by one, sometimes leap over the stick, sometimes creep under it, backward and forward, several times, according as the stick is advanced or depressed.
</span>
I think the answer would be: <span>The emperor rewards his subjects for jumping over and under a stick.
The full passage basically tell the readers about the strange contest that both the emperor and the empress like to conduct. We can see from the third sentence that those who are able to finish emperor's contest will be rewarded with a thread of silk.</span>

I would say the correct answer is A. <span>Despite the snowy and windy weather, a flock of young birds still manages to eat and survive. The imagery in the poem is dark and depressing. Bare trees, snow, dark wind are all the signs of forthcoming death, which is imminent. But even though the landscape is described as cruel and unforgiving, the flock of birds is still cheeping, eating and piping. Their song is certainly not pleasant to the ears, their flying is not vivacious, but it exists - which is the most they can hope for.</span>

Explanation:
The beautiful thing about fiction is that it can predict how reality will go before reality happens. It can hold up a temporal mirror to society and say to it "if you don't stop what you are doing, this is what will happen".
If we were to rely on non-fiction to teach people all the time then we would only be able to react to problems instead of act to avert them because with reality we can only learn in hindsight.
Fiction can be used to show what will happen if a certain behavior continues or is started thereby convincing people to either continue or stop. Fiction is therefore very useful in convincing people of certain ideas.
