Answer:
B. The Rocky Mountain locusts were more widespread.
Explanation:
The correct statement is statement B, which is confirmed by the sentence <em>But these attacks </em>(attacks of the grasshoppers) <em>don't last as long or cover as wide an area as the locust plagues of the 1800s. </em>The statement C, which says that the Rocky Mountain locusts had shorter attacks, contradicts this. Statement A is correct, but that is not a difference between grasshoppers and locusts, as grasshoppers cause destruction, too. The diet of the locusts is not specified in the excerpt, but it is known that they didn't eat only grass and valuable crops, but leather, wood, sheep's wool, and even clothes off peoples' backs as well.

There are several stories on way the name space opera emerged for the genre. See other responses for “horse opera” and “soap opera”. But I suggest the the similarity with stage operas is more apt than you seem to think.
