Answer:

King Leopold, by the world "civilization", means European civilization, that is to say, all the economic, social, and political characteristics of the European world at his time.

Things like industry, monarchies, christianity, gunpowder based warfare, are the main characteristics of the European world at the time, and these are the things that King Leopold is referring to by the world "civilization".

What structural decision does a translator make when translating an original text?
Anit [1.1K]
B makes sense, because when you are translating from another language there are often many different words that mean the same thing. Therefore, the translator would get to choose which one to use.
This is not really a structural decision, but it is the only answer which would stay true to the original story. The translator’s job is the change the language. not the whole story. Therefore, A, C, or D can not be correct.
