Explanation
The sentences use a variety of structures. For example, sentence 1 begins with a dependent clause (“When the twins grew up”), sentence 3 begins with another dependent clause (“Though they tried”), and sentence 2 begins with a time phrase (“One day”). Other sentences begin with phrases such as “On the last day” or “Using a deer antler,” so they do not all begin with the subject.
