The correct answer is: Option A. Something that precedes something else.
A prelude is an element that provides an introduction to something else. This can be inferred analyzing the prefix pre-, which means "before". A common place to find a prelude in is at the beggining a book, where the prelude serves as a brief introduction to the rest of the book's content.
Answer: B) I read the story about the history of the South that Professor Rasco assigned.
Explanation: when writing, we should pay attention to the rules of capitalization, in order to use them properly. In the given sentence "South" should be capitalized because it is referring to a region, so it is a proper noun. "Rasco" is capitalized because it is the last name of a person, and "Professor" also needs to be capitalized in this case, because it is referring to a specific person ("Professor Rasco"), when it is referring to the profession in general, it shouldn't be capitalized.
