As the name itself says, science fiction is something made up (fiction) that has to do with science. Usually, the story is set in the future, or in space, so B is incorrect.

Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead follows the "off-stage" exploits of two minor characters from Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. While the two main characters in Stoppard's play occasionally make brief appearances in "Hamlet," as scripted in Shakespeare's original tragedy, the majority of the play takes place in other parts of the castle where Hamlet is set. While "off stage" in this way, the characters resemble the main characters in the absurdist Waiting for Godot. As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time. These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet.

The second sentence describes Svetlana’s traits because, as you probably know, traits are characteristics that belong to a person such as a person’s height, sense of humor, physical distinctions, etc. That said one’s hair color, hobbies, eye color, and nose shape are all traits. The first sentence does not describe anything. All it says is that Svetlana is similar to her mother, which really tells us nothing by way of disclosing any trait because we know nothing of her mother.
