The correct answer is C - sentence 3.

Sentences 1, 2, and 4 are all factual statements that appear to be experienced by multiple people. Sentence 3 states that "Some of the debris and damage is almost comical." This is an example of an opinion because it is a belief of the narrator, not a proven fact.
