The correct answer is the last option.

In constructing their trenches, the Allies and Germans had different systems of thought. The former thought that the war would be over soon and that the soldiers would not spend much time in the trenches, resulting in poorly constructed ones that weren't comfortable by any means. The Germans, on the other hand, took into account the construction of their trenches, resulting in sturdy defensive lines.
