Answer:

B. “Science said, ‘It is possible’”

Explanation:

The span was beautiful and astonishing that grabbing attention of everyone and despite the many doubts of the people of New York science made the construction of the bridge or span possible.

The great structure of the span is itself a wonder and person can feel proud for making it possible. So, this phrase “Science said, ‘It is possible’”  is a fact that supports the opinion that the bridge is “a wonder of science”.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. “Science said, ‘It is possible’”.

<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>
