Answer

Brief Explanations:

The passage starts by talking about the stolen World Cup trophy. Then it focuses on how the dog Pickles found it. After that, it mentions Pickles' fame (appearing on TV, signing a film contract, being shown to fans with the trophy). The other options are either just parts of the story (the theft is a starting point but not the main idea; becoming a national hero is part of the result of finding the trophy which is tied to the trophy - related fame). The main idea ties the missing trophy and Pickles' fame together.

Answer:

In 1966, a missing trophy made a dog named Pickles famous.
