Question

It is reasonable to infer that the author of the passage

• A. worries that he or she does not have the full support of Australia's citizens
• B. believes that Sydney is better than London
• C. supports urban planning
• D. believes that sandstone is a healthy environment
• E. finds Sydney quaint

Answer 1

The correct option is C supports urban planning

Option C, supporting urban planning, is the correct answer. The author, from the beginning of the text, has been vocal about the infrastructure of the Australian colony, and how the development of the same will aid the empire. The ports and building attract him and convey his liking of the Australian urban culture. The statements of options A,B,D and E do not convey the same sentiments as the other, and therefore, are incorrect in this context.
