Answer

The answer is d. understanding that the divorce of one's parents is part of a larger societal trend toward marriage dissolution

Explanation
Option a: being comfortable in unfamiliar surroundings, such as visiting a new friend's house

This option describes personal adaptability and comfort in new environments, which is more about individual social skills rather than sociological imagination.

Option b: creating different hypotheses to explain an individual's behavior when you see that person acting strangely in public

This option involves forming hypotheses about individual behavior, which is more related to psychology or behavioral analysis rather than connecting personal experiences to larger social patterns.

Option c: creating a story to explain unfamiliar social customs when you are traveling in a new country

This option involves understanding and interpreting social customs, which is related to cultural awareness but not necessarily sociological imagination, which involves linking personal experiences to broader societal contexts.

Option d: understanding that the divorce of one's parents is part of a larger societal trend toward marriage dissolution

This option exemplifies the use of sociological imagination, as it involves connecting a personal experience (parents' divorce) to a larger societal trend (increasing rates of marriage dissolution). This perspective helps individuals understand their personal experiences in the context of broader social forces.
