Answer:
The option which the opening paragraph does the least to accomplish is:
B. immediately pull the reader into the action
Explanation:
Let's work this one out through elimination:
A. The opening paragraph DOES establish a relationship between the narrator and a character. We are immediately told they are uncle and nephew.
B. This seems to be the right choice for us. There is not a lot of action going on. We do not know what the uncle is listening for, what to expect, what is going on. This dragging creates some suspense as we wait for the action to start.
C. The opening paragraph DOES provide a sense of setting. As soon as we are told about the "cornfield" and the "breeze", we can imagine the characters are on a farm, out in the open.

Explanation:
In this sonnet, the speaker tells us of how his lover is not very attractive but that he loves her more than anything that is more attractive than her.
He talks about how her lips are not very red and how they are far from coral. He says her eyes are not like the sun which means that she doesn't have beautiful eyes.
Finally in a reference to how beautiful people walk as though they float, he talks about how his lover does not have this quality but instead walks on the ground.
She asked what I was doing when I knocked at the door.
