Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:

In the past, the military and the FBI have prevented a number of terrorist attacks.   I still remember how it felt on September 11 when our country was attacked by terrorists.   Social services cannot provide the sense of security that a strong national defense can.   Social services provide food, health care, and other forms of assistance to millions of citizens each year.
