(C) Given that $x^6 = 1$,we have $x^6 - 1 = 0$. Factoring this,we get $(x-1)(x^5+x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1) = 0$. Since $\alpha$ is a non-real root of $x^6=1$,it must satisfy the equation $x^5+x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1 = 0$. Thus,$\alpha^5+\alpha^4+\alpha^3+\alpha^2+\alpha+1 = 0$. Rearranging the terms,we have $\alpha^5+\alpha^3+\alpha+1 = -(\alpha^4+\alpha^2)$. Factoring out $-\alpha^2$ from the right side,we get $\alpha^5+\alpha^3+\alpha+1 = -\alpha^2(\alpha^2+1)$. Therefore,$\frac{\alpha^5+\alpha^3+\alpha+1}{\alpha^2+1} = -\alpha^2$.

If $\alpha$ is a non-real root of $x^6=1$,then $\frac{\alpha^5+\alpha^3+\alpha+1}{\alpha^2+1}$ is equal to
