Did you get the answer on the last question?

OpenStudy (micahm):

Exposition is a literary device used to introduce background information about events, settings, characters etc. to the audience or readers. The word comes from the Latin language and its literal meaning is “a showing forth.” Exposition is crucial to any story, for without it nothing makes sense.

@chantz417 I believe the answer is A. A says 'Provides background information'. From what @micahm said above is correct. An expositions purpose is to provide information to the readers.
