A Correct answer
Explanation

Shanti demonstrates responsibility and concern for others' health by following medical advice to use contraceptives, thereby preventing the spread of syphilis to her partner. This shows she understands her role in protecting public health and takes ethical behavior seriously. The other options miss the core value - being friendly, wanting to impress, or blindly following advice don't capture the ethical dimension of disease prevention.
