I'm pretty sure its first person. because the person keeps saying "I" and "our" which is a little sign of it being first person.

For the second one:
B.) Her mother stared at her (because "stared" sounds more threatening than "looked").
Hope this helps!
Ludere means to trick. Collusion is secret, illusion is a trick, elude is to avoid escape. These are not options. A prelude is an introduction - almost like a taste to trick you into reading, hearing, seeing more. An ablution is a washing - not connected to a trick at all. Ablution is your answer.
