Explanation / Answer

ANSWER: b. Alison sees herself as a girl who had to endure great hardship growing up with divorced parents but has overcome this obstacle and is now happily married.

This is because a redemptive person would try to correct what has gone wrong. Therefore to negate the ill effects of her parent's divorce, Alison would try to lead a happy married life.
