Answer: B. By showing characters who were unaware of or unconcerned about the danger the Martians posed

As part of Well's social criticism, the characters in The War of the Worlds are unaware and unprepared when the Martians attack. The book tells us that people were unaware of the danger because they did not take the time to think about other worlds besides the Earth. Moreover, those who did think about other planets believe them to be incapable of hosting life. Wells thinks that the characters were victims of human vanity, and tries to warn England not to do the same.
