Solution

The correct option is C In the middle of the big river.
Option C is correct because it is clearly mentioned in the passage that - 'In the middle of the big river, the river that began in the mountains and ended in the sea, was a small island.'
There is no evidence in the passage to suggest that Options A, B, and D are the right answers.
Hence, these are incorrect.
