Answer

Brief Explanations:

Rhodes believes the British are the "first - race" and it's good for humanity if they inhabit more of the world. Painting Africa "British red" implies spreading British influence, which can be seen as spreading European ways. He doesn't mention manufactured goods, and he thinks God would support his actions, not oppose them. He is not embarrassed by colonial dreams.

Answer:

It is Britain's duty to spread European ways and customs around the world.
