Answer: A.Transportation systems improved.

During the Victorian era, transportation improved significantly. Trains were popular, and bicycles became more common. Therefore, the answer that makes the most sense is A. Shakespeare was long dead by the Victorian era, while movies and radio had not been invented yet. Finally, there was no war that "tore" England during this period.
