Answer:

The answer to the question: What kinds of activities impress young Twain during the steamboat´s brief stop in Hannibal, would be: the river chariots.

Explanation:

Mark Twain, whose official name was truly Samuel Langhorne Clemens, moved from Virgina, where he was born, with his family, to settle in Hannibal, Missouri. During his life there, he was always overpowered by the Mississippi River, and most commonly its river chariots and steamboats, which were a constant sight in his town. After the death of his father, Twain left Hannibal and moved to New York, where he worked for a pretty good while. In one of his many writings, <em>Life on the Mississippi </em>Twain claims that as a boy, he and his peers would dream of only one thing: to become a steamboatman, and he fufills that dream after graduating himself, and taking on an apprenticeship with Horace E. Bixby. It was during this apprenticeship that Twain got to know the Mississippi by heart and achieved his goal of becoming a steamboat pilot.
