The correct answer is A. cocky
The fantasy pilot character Captain Mitty is cocky, which can easily be observed through his behavior and by the way the writer characterizes him both directly and indirectly.
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
Believe the best answer for this question would be D, "archetype." A femme fatale is a character who appears in many works of literature, although she takes on different forms. She possesses many of the same qualities and performs largely the same actions, making her an archetype. She may or may not be symbolic, solitary, or heroic, which means you can rule these options out as your answer because they are not definitive. Other examples of archetypes are the hero, the wicked witch, the wise old man, etc. Hope this helps.
