The imagery used in the first paragraph of Chapter XII constantly reiterates the order and cleanliness of France.

He says the entire thing is a garden that must be brushed, watered and trimmed daily, indicating it is very neat and clean. The hedges are "shaped" and symmetrical. The trees are in long, straight rows. The landscape is so orderly Twain compares it to a checkerboard. 

The effect of this imagery is to show the reader the beauty and cleanliness of France, which is astounding to Twain.

Colt1911 [192]
I believe that is correct. For example, we would write "President Obama" or "Governor Bob". 

Time of year is referring to seasons. We would write that lower case - "It is summer now."

The last word in a narrative sentence... makes no sense.

Every work in a book title - we do not capitalize "of" in a book title.

Read the excerpt from Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, An African. That subject, handled in your striking manner, would ease
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Well known in London social and literary circles during his lifetime, Sancho achieved lasting fame with the posthumous publication of his Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, an African. The 158 letters collected in this volume cover a wide range of subjects—including literature, politics, and race—and offer Sancho's unique perspective as a former slave and one of the only middle-class Black men living in eighteenth-century London. Sancho's letters also reveal him to be a man of generosity, warmth, and humor who enjoyed the company of friends from many different stations in life. In his own day, Sancho was thought of as “the extraordinary Negro,” and to eighteenth-century British opponents of the slave trade he became a symbol of the humanity of Africans, something that at the time was disputed by many.
