I think that C, that is, "they found the charge and trouble very great, and they had little or no crop it is not doubted", is your answer.

Understatement represents something as smaller or less intense than it reallly is, it presents it as less important. In sentence C, the speaker refers to a problem as a minor inconvinience "(...)trouble very great". Generarlly, we all know, that troubles are far from great. "They had little or no crop it is not doubted", you could change the focus and say that you have "some crop" instead of referring to the crop as being little.

Which lines from the passage best support the author's concern with environmental activism?
NISA [10]

I believe the correct lines are:

2. "…it creates an unsustainable pace of deforestation that leads to mudslides…"

4. "…a pollutant that contributes directly to climate change."

 

     In this excerpt from “A Cooking Revolution: How Clean Energy and Cookstoves Are Saving Lives” written by Chef Jose Andres, the lines from the passage best support the author's concern with environmental activism are: "…it creates an unsustainable pace of deforestation that leads to mudslides…" and "…a pollutant that contributes directly to climate change."

      These lines best support authors concern for environmental activism as they describe the outcome of the cooking using firewood, coal and or dung – deforestation and climate change, which later affect other realms of our lives (such as our health).
