D. Without humanity's presence, New York City would quickly deteriorate.
Explanation:
This excerpt taken from Alan Weisman's "The City Without Us" discusses how the human presence keep New York from becoming a disastrous chaos. As the author explains, without power and people to pump the water out, the subway systems of New York would be completely flooded. If it rains, it would only take some hours for it to be underwater; if it doesn't, just a couple of days. The author is showing readers that the city only functions because of the people who work to ensure it. If humans were to disappear, it wouldn't be long before the world became wild and nature claimed everything man has ever built.

The Victorian Era was known as the period where Queen Victoria ruled England. It lasted 68 years, as Queen Victoria assumed the role in 1837 until 1901. It is the longest reign that a British monarch has had.
This period was known for having a hierarchy based social order. As Queen Victoria wanted to regain some of the lost respect the public had towards the Kingdom, society started to benefit those with "noble titles", which were granted by the Queen to a selected number of individuals. This produced a pronounced form of classism an among British society, as middle-class citizens often lost their jobs to people with a certain relation to those who had honorific titles. It was an era of high expectations, as people often were prejudices towards others due to their background.
