Which statement best expresses the central idea of “ him up! ”: a witness’s account of panic on a subway platform

B). Some people will selflessly take extraordinary action to save people who are in danger because they feel responsible.

Explanation:

The central idea is described as the key unifying element of the written work(essay, text, article, etc.) that primarily functions to bind the several elements of the text in a single thread.

In the given article 'HELP HIM UP!': A WITNESS’S ACCOUNT OF PANIC ON A SUBWAY PLATFORM', option B i.e. 'Some people will selflessly take extraordinary action to save people who are in danger because they feel responsible' exemplifies the statement that most appropriately expresses the central idea of the article as it unifies the incidents displayed in the article together. The extraordinary efforts displayed by David Capuzzo to save the homeless man who fell on the platform(by jumping off the tracks and having a cut on his hand'). This reflects that some people like Capuzzo take such courageous action for the sense of care and responsibility they feel towards other humans which is contrary to the fear other people at the station felt. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
