Answer:
While the main idea is usually in the first sentence, the next most common placement is in the last sentence of a paragraph. The author gives supporting information first and then makes the point in the last sentence. Here's a paragraph we can use as an example.
Explanation:
C. where no considerable European settlement is possible
Though all the passage clearly expresses the author's idea to convey that British is superior to all countries, option C is the phrase that most clearly suggest that.
By using the words "no (...) is possible", the author expresses that normally people considered impossible/unfeasible a big European settlement in their lands, but since they are the British Empire, they are superiors and therefore they are the ones who can make it possible.
I think that the answer is D. Hope that helps.
The simile “lay down / to sleep like a snow-covered road / winding through pines” refers to— death.

In this way author <span> makes a description of his feelings more emphatic and appealing to a reader.</span>
