Answer:

Based on this excerpt, writing a blog about her experiences allowed Malala to keep her identity a secret if she wanted.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Pakistan's Malala" by Ashley Fantz is an article based on Malala who was shot at and almost killed by the Taliban for her activist work. She became the youngest to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

As seen in the given excerpt, the article states how Malala wants to write a blog under a different name. In this very act of using a different name, a disguised name, she is ensuring that her identity is safe and that she can also safely address whatever she wants to say or put out to the world. This will enable her to keep her secret if she wanted to.

Thus, the correct answer is the last option.
