Compound object is the answer
I believe that the first and last paragraphs are realism because of their cynical descriptions of harsh things, and the middle two are romanticism because of their embellished/elegant descriptions.
The two quotations that show these events took place many years ago are "Many, many centuries ago..." and "...he showed men how to build fires for themselves.."
<h3>What is a quotation?</h3>
We can define a quotation as a passage taken from someone else's text and used in another text. Quotations are, in a way, a copy of the same exact words used by the original author. Whenever we use a quotation in our own work, we must give the author due credit.
Here, we are to analyze the quotations provided in the answer choices and choose the two that support the idea that the events narrated took place many years ago. Therefore, we can choose the following quotations:
- "Many, many centuries ago there lived a Titan named Prometheus.” (paragraph 1)
- “On Earth, he showed men how to build fires for themselves, and it was not long before they began to do all the wonderful things of which Prometheus had dreamed.” (paragraph 10)
The first quotation is the most obvious one, since it uses the words "many, many centuries ago." Now, the second quotation is a bit trickier, but we can see that it indicates the events took place many years ago because it speaks of a time when men were not able to build fires by themselves.
With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answers provided above are correct.

Answer:
Living Like Weasels by Annie Dillard. The intention of this piece is to convince readers to live “as [they're] meant to,” focus on their individual purposes (or goals), and never give up on whatever they feel they are meant to do.
Explanation:
Annie Dillard wrote “Living Like Weasels”, an essay in which she paints the story of her encounter with a weasel. She explains that from her meeting with the weasel, she developed a great admiration for the weasel’s way of life; Weasels live not by choice, bias, or motive as humans do, but rather out of pure necessity. Dillard relishes the thought of going about life wild and careless as weasels do. She concludes that it’d be best if one would yield to the necessity to simply live as intended.
Dillard sees that the wild weasel has the freedom to live carelessly and solely by necessity; whereas, the way humans choose to live can identify necessity with miscellaneous things and be shaped by bias, motive, etc. If humans could understand the purity in the mindlessness of the weasel’s way of life, each person could live how they wanted, unrestricted by imposed human behavior, societal norms and expectations.
