Explanation:

The sentence selected above would be ideal only to be placed in the introduction of Carmen's personal narrative, because it determines an appropriate thesis statement to show her position in relation to volunteer work, as well as supporting her justification for engaging in this type of activity.

Furthermore, among the response options presented, this is the only one that can be added to the introduction in a coherent and cohesive way, with the other options being more appropriate for the body of the narrative.

We must not forget that the thesis statement is usually part of the end of the introduction and presents the author's opinion and position in relation to something.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
