Which statement best shows a problem in the memoir Travels with Charley? For many years I have traveled in many parts of the world. But New York is no more America than Paris is France or London is England. I, an American writer, writing about America, was working from memory, and the memory is at best a faulty, warpy reservoir. So it was that I determined to look again, to try to rediscover this monster land.

The answer is:

I, an American writer, writing about America, was working from memory, and the memory is at best a faulty, warpy reservoir.

In the excerpt from "Travels with Charley," by John Steinbeck, the narrator suggests that a writer's memory is imperfect and gives a misleading or false impression. As a consequence, he organizes or makes future plans to begin his trip.
