For me, I would say yes. Large part of it is because I have no classes tomorrow because of a major snow storm that just hit and roads are too messy for driving, So I'm free to do what i want.. Here's my plan, I live in Seattle and a huge snow storm just hit here and most of the streets that on steep hills are now transformed into ski slopes. I'm going to wake up, eat darth Vader shaped chocolate waffles while watching the ending off Inception (You have no soul if you don't find some the ending some what sentimental).Then I plan on skiing/sledding down streets with my friends, drinking some hot coco.. Go sledding down more streets., drink more hot coco, ski down more streets, drink coffee plus hot coco, ski/sled down more streets. Play basketball and tackle football in the snow with friends. Spend time with family, watch the video of Steve jobs talking about death , watch the new episodes of the Daily Show/Colbert Report that air that night... then go lie down in the snow while staring at the stars in space. Close my eyes and die peacefully

Answer:
d. tried
Explanation:
The underlined word here is <em><u>vied</u></em>.
It is the past tense of the word <em>vie</em>, with means to compete with great enthusiasm and eagerness for the reward or achievement. Here it is used to express that the <u>daughter is competing for the spot on the squad with high spirit. </u>
<u>Because of that, it can be changed with the word </u><em><u>tried </u></em>– <u>she is trying for the spot on the team, trying to compete against other candidates</u>. While it takes out the idea of great enthusiasm, changing <em>vied </em>to <em>tried </em>still carries to message that the daughter is attempting to get into the team.
