Answer:
Hi! It seems like <u>your question is incomplete</u>; I did a little research but I wasn't able to find the complete question to give you a precise answer, so I'll try to guide you for you to realize which is the correct answer.
Explanation:
First of all, read the complete text, as I understand this is only a section from it called <em>The Deciding Pitch</em>, after reading it, see which are the answer choices you have. I think one of them is Ready as it is an isolated word that appears after the question. I would believe that there are a couple more options, so <em>first read the section carefully and feel the tone in the announcer's voice:</em> <em>What does he think of the hitter? How does the announcer thinks the hitter feels when he is about to play? Does the announcer perceive fear in the hitter, does he perceive peacefulness in the hitter? Does he perceive uncomfort? Nervousness? What does the announcer thinks the hitter is feeling right before his turn to hit the ball?</em>
Once you figure it out, read carefully the options given by the task and <u>choose the one that best fits your perception.</u> There you will have your answer, and don't worry, you'll do just fine. Trust yourself! Good luck!
