Solution

The correct option is C first
Option B: 'Maiden' means 'being or involving the first attempt or act of its kind'.
'First' means 'before all others in order, time or importance'.
This word means the same as the given italicized word. Hence option B is correct.
Option A: 'Primary' means 'of chief importance, principal'.
Option C: 'Opening' means 'a space or gap that allows passage or access'.
Option D: 'Girlish' means 'of or characteristic of a girl'.
These words do not mean the same as the given word 'maiden'.
So, options A, C and D are wrong.
