Correct Answer: reincarnation


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Reincarnation means the belief that a dead person's spirit returns to a different body. This helps convey the intended meaning that when Dali was five, he was taken to his brother's grave and was told that his brother had taken rebirth in the form of him.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "When he was five, Dali was taken to his brother's grave and was told that he was his brother's reincarnation ."
