First you need to understand what colonization means.
Colonization is basically when a foreigner goes to a new land and starts to promote their influence. This could be in a form of conquering, changing culture, etc... One of the best examples of colonization is European colonization of the New World. Some Europeans enslaved the natives, forced them to convert to Christianity, and brought over a new language, technology, and ideas.

Once you know what colonization is you will know that the answer is: C. Prospero enslaves Caliban and teaches him English.

This option is the most parallel with colonization.
