Solution

The correct option is A first
'Maiden' in the given context means being or involved in the first act of something, the first appearance on the screen in this case. Hence option A, 'first' is the correct word that is closest in meaning to the underlined word.
Although 'maiden' can also mean 'girlish', option C is incorrect in the given context.
Options B and D are incorrect because 'last' means final and 'shy' means timid or bashful.
