Explanation:

American Realist writing emphasizes accurate, unbiased depictions of everyday life. Twain's Life on the Mississippi is known for its detailed, unbiased descriptions of life along the Mississippi River, including people, places, and events. Irony (A) is more associated with satire or other literary devices, proper English (B) is not a hallmark of Realism (Twain often used dialect), and objective commentary (D) is less about commentary and more about descriptive realism. Unbiased descriptions (C) align with Realist focus on authentic representation.

Answer:

C. Twain's unbiased descriptions
