The literary theme here is that women have a difficult time because nobody takes them seriously, or at least that's what it was like in the first half of the 20th century. Many people believed that women shouldn't be taken seriously and shouldn't have things like voting rights or rights to work or similar things because they were considered to be less serious than men, and that's putting it nicely because many people were not nice to them.
The correct answer is I, II, and III.
The first sentence support the thesis statement by using a metaphor: it compares a settler cleaning weeds from a corn field with men killing all types of life to comfortably settle in a land.
The second sentence expresses how men have devoted years and centuries developing and improving different types of weapons that would make them better killers.
And the third sentence shows that man has taken his desire for killing so far that he even wants to kill the microorganisms that live in their homes.

Answer and Explanation:
The chest looked ancient - I would have guessed some good hundred years. There wasn't much to it; no golden adornments of any kind. Its wood was dark, damp, and splintered, as if it were telling the story of every storm, every high tide, every humid summer it had survived. There was a sort of metal strap around it, with rusty little hollowed handles that closed side by side to allow the padlock to lock. The padlock itself was rusty and rustic, with a huge black emptiness in its center waiting for a key - the majestic old key I now had in my hands. I felt as if electricity were running through my veins instead of my own red blood, as if my brain could no longer contain any thoughts other than the curious urge to open that chest. I did it carefully, afraid to hurt my hands with the rusty iron and the splinters. Inside, there was nothing but a necklace. My heart thumped strongly, I would have heard its beating in a vacuum. I had found it, the golden necklace everyone believed to be a myth. I held it in my hands, triumphantly.
Note: Your question does not give much context about how or why those objects would be found. So I just made up some sort of story around it. Feel free to change anything!
Answer: B) thrown
Explanation: I eliminated A and C because they didn't make sense for the answer. Next I thought about what strewn meant ( untidily scattered ) and picked the one most similar to the definition, thrown.
