Even though you do not provide the underlined part of the quotation from paragraph 10, the answer to this question is quite easy to pinpoint due to advanced knowledge of the English language.
The best sentence is the one which offers a syntactic inversion, because it is the one that produces a more emphatic result. And being that the main purpose of inversions, it seems quite an obvious pick.
So, the final answer for this question is:
B) ‘seldom does a sight more grand and more striking meet a person’s eyes, as when he sees the Overland train slowing…’
This sentence provides more emphasis as well as a better and clearer grammatical construction.
Maybe you could say because you were new to that car and do not really know how to control it. which is why you drove like a snake
It’s D because those can be two separate sentences
I wrote a short story that took up an entire summer day...
Still I'm not sure that is the answer you are looking for so please explain better if I'm not answering correctly.

I wish I wasn't so alone
Stuck at home
With music as my only friend
For when my little brother
Screams to no end, reasons unknown
And my headphones are dead
My eyelids become
as heavy as led
