Which sentence could replace sentence 5 to make the paragraph more precise?
Read the paragraph from Liam's narrative.
1. I had never been more frightened in my entire life.
2. As I stepped onto the diving platform, I waited for instructions from my diving coach.
3. Only because his directions were so clear, and because he was so nice, I was able to do it.
4. It had all been worth it, I thought, as I changed from my bathing suit back into clothes.
5. I had achieved what I had set out to do. [REPLACE THIS SENTENCE WITH ONE OF THE OPTIONS BELOW]

A. I was able to accomplish the goal I had set for myself. (what he specifically set out to do is still NOT precisely stated)
B. I had finally managed to dive from the highest platform. ( Yes. precisely stated)
C. I had surprised myself by being able to do what I didn't think I could. (still not precisely stated)
D. I truly owed a lot o Coach Wilkerson for all the help he had given me. ( nope )

My question is.. if the correct answer is B. I had finally managed to dive from the highest platform, because IT IS A MORE PRECISE way of stating sentence 5, then why has this question been mostly answered incorrectly SO much, taking up valuable answer slots? Please answer to post this.

Answer:

the answer is in teh problem, this is the correct answer to this problem stated above

The sentence that can replace paragraph 5 to make is more precise is that "I was able to accomplish the goal I had set for myself". That is option A.

A precised statement is a statement that accurately defines another statement without additional of extra information.

From the Liam's narrative statements, number five statement didn't say anything about diving or swimming. He just stated that he had achieved what he had set out to do.

Therefore, the statement that can replace it is that "I was able to accomplish the goal I had set for myself".

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

Then Gandhi invited each person in the theater to join him in an exceptional oath, a pledge not to register, not to accept the government's rules, even if that resulted in severe punishment. Gandhi insisted that every person weigh the commitment and make a personal choice. "Every individual," he explained, must make the oath him- or herself,

facing not to his neighbor, but his God. Nor should it be taken in order to gain power over anybody but oneself, for the power of an oath is defined by what one man can promise to do, and what he is willing to suffer: insult, incarceration, hard labor, flogging, fine, deportation, and even death.

Everyone in the audience raised his or her hand.

Gandhi bound the crowd together to follow a new path, which he called Satyagraha—which means "truth with force," or "firmness." It is also called "love-force." While the goal of violence is to defeat and vanquish the enemy, the goal of Satyagraha is to convince or convert the opponent. "He must be weaned from error by patience and sympathy." A person who believes in Satyagraha will not fight physically, but instead resists through his or her own inner courage, knowing he might be jailed or beaten.

A lot of sources are used in this article. The American Educational Research Association gives us data on teacher turnover rate and how it is much higher for young teachers and is higher than other professions. It was surprising to ready that “45% of young teachers leave their jobs within the first 5 years,” because that’s almost half of all young teachers. Hearing this makes the reader wonder about what’s so bad that the teachers aren’t staying at their jobs when they are young and full of energy. Dave Eggers opinion piece says that the cost of teacher turnover in the U.S. is $7.34 billion per year. That is a lot of money! That means we are paying a price for this high rate of attrition. Dewey continues Eggers’ point by saying that putting back this lost money into teacher salaries “would likely lower turnover and budgetary shortfalls in the first place.” It seems like a no brainer to do this, but instead, initial teacher salaries continue to be low and many college graduates would not even consider getting into the teaching profession at this rate.
