Answer:
The <u>athlete's</u> goal is to win <u>medals</u> at all of her <u>competitions</u> this season.
Explanation:
The given sentence has been rewritten by converting each bold word as per its use in the sentence. The word 'athlete' will employ an apostrophe followed by s('s) to show possession of the goal. While the word 'medal' will be converted to the plural 'medals' as there is no indefinite article given to clarify that the athlete is willing to win only one medal. Similary, 'competition' will be converted to plural 'competitions' as signaled by the use of 'all' which signifies plurality. Thus, the <u>first shows possession, and the other two reflect 'more than one.</u>'
