Answer:

The correct answer is A. It reminded them of the colonialist experience.

Explanation:

War of the Worlds was written in 1898 by scifi pioneer writer H.G. Wells.  The plots deals with a so called outer space invasion to Earth and the destruction of all mankind.

Wells wrote this novel as a parody to crtiticize British colonialism. The destructive aliens represented the British,  and the human beings are just that, human beings.

In the excerpt, we can analyze that there is a "natural process of destruction" that occurs among different groups of beings. Those "superior" vanquish "inferior" ones, so as to justify humankind being exterminated by  "more evolved" Martians.
