All three answers are not wrong. It's like defining mad as crazy or angry. Both are correct, right?
Anyway, if you take the rest of the picture into context, then the second answer would be ideal. Incidentally, 志 is also a Japanese word with the same meaning.
By the way, that is one awful depiction of 志 in the picture. Most teachers would mark it as wrong if you were to write it like that. Definitely not a Japanese or Chinese who designed that.
