Clinton powerfully supports her arguments by citing her extensive experience with organizations that support women.

Answer
A
“However different we may appear, there is far more that unites us than divides us. We share a common future, and we are here to find common ground so that we may help bring new dignity and respect to women and girls all over the world.”
B
“If we take bold steps to better the lives of women, we will be taking bold steps to better the lives of children and families too.”
C
Clinton describes the 25 years she has spent helping women, children, and families, and her recent focus on struggles that primarily affect women.
D
Throughout her speech, Clinton tells anecdotes about women she has met in her work and ways they are both struggling and succeeding at making better lives for themselves.

Explanation

Choice C best supports the topic sentence because it describes Clinton’s 25 years of work helping women, children, and families, along with her focus on issues affecting women. This experience gives her credibility when she argues for women’s rights. Choice D mentions stories from her work, but it does not emphasize the extent of her experience as directly.
