An opinion from 'The girl who silenced the world for five minuets' would be;

I wonder if they will even exist for my children to see

The other stated options are verifiable facts, whilst her wondering if "they will even exist for my children to see" is her viewpoint on the stumbling block.

The excerpt from "The Girl Who Silenced the World for Five Minutes" which expresses an opinion is - I wonder if they will even exist for my children. Assuming the other options are starving children around the world, countless animals dying across this planet, and holes in the ozone, then the only correct answer is the one above. The remaining options are facts, whereas the correct option is her personal opinion about the subject she is talking about.
