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.
D. Success is possible if one truly believes in oneself
The above excerpt from Charles Dickens’ novel “Oliver Twist” point out the following two traits of British society during the industrial revolution.
1.a lack of regard for life among the working class
3. the employment of children for hazardous tasks
Dickens novels reflect the ills of Victorian society which emerged as the byproduct of the Industrial Revolution. The drawbacks of the modern society and Industrialization were great in number. The society got divided based on class and status. The rich became richer and the poor became poorer. Child labor was encouraged especially in the factories to overcome poverty. People became self-centered and uncaring. Urbanization gave birth to an increase in the slum in the cities. Individualism increased which favored self-increment and not on the betterment of the society. Children were not allowed to imagine and live in the world of fancy. They were taught to live with logic and reason. This period saw the downfall of humanity in the history of mankind.
