Answer:
D
Explanation:
Choice A would make sense for the first sentence, but not the rest. Choice B is supported by the part of the passage that says, "...I am weightless again, flying past the other runners". The choice C isn't supported whatsoever because the passage does not say whether or not Squeaky wins, nor does it talk about working hard to prepare for the race. The choice D is supported by the positive self-talk and the resulting physical response (running faster) that the passage describes. This is why I believe D is the best answer.

Explanation:
The Statement that Benjamin Franklin was fascinated by electricity and gave a lot of his time after he retired study its properties is true because he started studying the properties of electricity in 1746 and devoted more time to it after retiring in 1788. He conducted his famous kite experiment in June 1752. Also, the statement that he never patented any of his inventions is also true and is supported by authors arguments. Franklin's influence in the early history of the United States has led people to call him "the only President of the United States who was never President of the United States". He is largely self educated because though he attended the school he did not graduate, but continued his education through voracious reading.
