I am unsure if I am correct (since I am answering late), but I believe these are the possible answer choices to choose from:

O to provide details that may be important to the text

O to analyze how successfully a text achieves its purpose

O to offer an opinion or perspective about the text as a whole

O to analyze how the topic of the text compares to other texts

O to discuss important events that caused the author to write the text

The answers to this question are to provide details that may be important to the text, to offer an opinion or perspective about the text as a whole, and to discuss important events that caused the author to write the text (1st, 3rd, and 5th options).

"It is a separate introductory section of a literary or musical work".

Aka: a before hand explanation of what's coming ahead, whether it tells the ending, or provides extra information that the actual work doesn't.
