Verified by Toppr

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.
