<span>C. Fictional author </span>
<span>
The short italicized sections of the book contain the
introduction of the ‘author’ of the book who establishes himself as a character
in the text. It tells of his travels and adventures in the hopes of publishing
a book. He already had two books that flunked and thus he traveled to Bombay.
Here he became dejected as his goal to write about Portugal did not
materialize. He wandered through India and reached the town of Pondicherry
which was once controlled by the French Empire. He met Francis Adirubasamy who
became a pivotal character and started the ball rolling to create a book that
is ‘nonfiction’; fact that was
reestablished in other parts of the book with the same fashion. </span>

Answer:
A. A slug crawling across the ground
Explanation:
According to the passage, "'The landscape was misty and vague. I was still on the hill–side upon which this house now stands, and the shoulder rose above me grey and dim. I saw trees growing and changing like puffs of vapour, now brown, now green; they grew, spread, shivered, and passed away. I saw huge buildings rise up faint and fair, and pass like dreams. The whole surface of the earth seemed changed—melting and flowing under my eyes. The little hands upon the dials that registered my speed raced round faster and faster. Presently I noted that the sun belt swayed up and down, from solstice to solstice, in a minute or less, and that consequently my pace was over a year a minute; and minute by minute the white snow flashed across the world, and vanished, and was followed by the bright, brief green of spring."
B, C, and D are all examples that are included in the passage, therefore A is the correct answer.
