I believe it’s the Last option. I searched it up for a background check and this is what I found :)
Answer:
C) Began
Explanation: It's because the question is itself in the past tense. The word 'prehistory' indicates the past.
Taking into consideration that a plot complication is when a further detail is revealed regarding the conflict. Said detail can be directly related to the conflict or simply be an inconvenience representing further difficulty to solving the central conflict. In Arthur Miller's The Crucible, act 2, lines 419–431, Mary is defending herself from John Proctor's threat to whip her by her argument on how she saved Elizabeth's life (Proctor's wife) by being present in Salem on that day. The fact that Elizabeth has been accused is a complication because it shows a new detail about the central conflict of the play. If the main conflict is revealing the fake nature of the witch trials, the complication revealed here is that Abigail is the one accusing Elizabeth (considered an honorable woman)<span> to take her place as Proctor's wife (lines 490-499). </span>
Answer: personification and alliteration
Personification refers to the use of human qualities to describe animals, inanimate objects, abstract ideas or natural phenomena. In this case, the author gives "autumn" qualities that belong to humans, such as "sitting careless on a granary floor."
Alliteration refers to the repetition of identical initial consonant sounds, even when spelled differently. It is also called "initial rhyme." In this case, the author uses alliteration when he says "winnowing wind."
