Correct Answer: express


Solution : The right option is the first option .

The sentence continues with a colon (:), indicating that what comes after will explain or provide more detail about the preceding statement.

The phrase to express myself in some mode of life describes the action that the speaker (the subject "I") intends to undertake.

Overall, the sentence expresses the idea that the speaker wants to find a way to communicate or articulate his identity or feelings within various aspects of life, like home.

So the completed sentence would be: "It calls itself my home, my fatherland, or my church, and I will try to express myself in some mode of life."
