Answer: (D)

The key idea here is locating the temple point, Taiyang, by its precise position in the temple hollow. Taiyang sits in a tender hollow in the temporal region, about 1 cun behind the midpoint of the line from the outer end of the eyebrow to the outer canthus. That spot is the classic site used for temple headaches and eye-related issues. So the described location matches Taiyang, which is why this is the best choice. The other options lie in different areas (midline or other facial regions) and do not correspond to the temple hollow described.
