We can select the correct answer among the multiple-choices. The author doesn't insult the readers because there is not any valid evidence to prove it. The same applies to the second option. We don't know that the narrator is knowledgeable or not - we need extra information to confirm that. The excerpt is just one sentence and it is clearly defined that there is nothing complicated. The only correct and suitable option is the last one since the answer is closer to understand. The correct answer is D.

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which may leave the answer inaccurate, but I will try to help you in the best possible way.

Infdividuals, events and ideas inspire people who are experiencing situations similar to what these elements present. This causes an identification to occur between the individual and what inspires him, allowing for a strong influence, which makes the individual want to act in the way his object of admiration acts or shows as correct.

Completely unrelated, but that is a great sentence, I want that painted as a quote on my wall.

Also, the punctiation seems right to me. But you might be able to use a ";" instead of a comma, im gonna check that real quick.
