Answer:

C. Exposition

Step-by-step explanation:

THis passage creates a vivid imagery of what was happening in the context of the excerpt, what was the reality and how was the protagonist living, this in a plot is an example of exposition, it does not have conflict like the climax would have, nor offers resolution, or falling action, it´s just a set up for what´s about to come.
