Solution
The correct option is B ourselves When the subject and the object of the verb is the same person or thing, we use a reflexive pronoun.
In the given sentence the subject and the object of the verb is 'we'.
'Ourselves' is the reflexive pronoun for the plural first person. Thus option B is the correct answer.
The reflexive pronoun for singular third person is 'himself','herself' or 'itself' according to the gender of the noun. Thus option C and D are incorrect.
'Themselves' is the reflexive pronoun for third person plural. Thus option A is also incorrect.
