[PLEASE ANSWER] Which best represents an opinion?

. . . we will gain the . . . triumph.

Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an attack against Malaya.

The United States was at peace with that Nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with its Government and its Emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific.

'We will gain the triumph' best represents an opinion.

Option A

Explanation:

Opinion is a person’s view about something which is not really based on any factual knowledge or data. Opinion is simply a belief or a person’s way of thinking. The sentence ‘we will gain triumph’ represents an opinion.

It is not a fact or an information, the line simply states that we will achieve success. It’s the belief that the speaker is holding. The rest two statements aren’t opinions, they are the factual information being provided to the readers. As in, ‘Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an attack against Malaya’ this sentence expresses the fact and not an opinion.

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.
