A is the answer I’m thinking :)
Answer:
The story describes a young middle-class English woman who "had no luck." Although outwardly successful, she is haunted by a sense of failure; her husband is not good and her job as a commercial artist does not earn as much as she would like. Family life exceeds their income and unspoken anxiety about money permeates the home. Her children, a son Paul and her two sisters, feel this anxiety; children even say they can hear the house whispering, "There must be more money."
Paul tells his uncle Oscar Cresswell about gambling on horse races with Bassett, the outfielder. He has been making bets using his pocket money and has won and saved three hundred and twenty pounds. Sometimes he says he is "sure" of a winner for an upcoming race and that the horses he names win, sometimes with remarkable odds. Uncle Oscar and Bassett make big bets on the horses that Paul names.
After more profit, Paul and Oscar arrange to give the mother a gift of £ 5,000, but the gift only allows her to spend more. Disappointed, Paul tries harder than ever to be "lucky". As the Derby approaches, Paul is determined to learn the winner. Concerned about his health, his mother returns home from a party and discovers his secret. He has spent hours riding his rocking horse, sometimes overnight, until he "gets there," to a clairvoyant state where he can be sure of the winner's name.
On the other hand, the pyramid explanation always starts from an important or more pathognomonic point of the analysis, and then it is explained in different aspects. Ideally, the topic of the pyramid peak should be the most relevant and, as it develops, it should cover other less relevant topics, thus considering the less important topics as those of the "base".
Explanation:
Think of a pyramid structure that starts at the top as a single point and expands more as we go to different lower levels.

Verb phrases comprise one verb and its dependants but not the subject. It consists of a combination of main verb and an axillary verb. There are two types of verb phrase, finite and infinite verb phrase. Finite verb phrase begins with a finite verb and an infinite verb phrase begins with an infinite verb.
B is the correct answer. Between is used for 2 items. Among is used for 3+ items. In this case, a soccer team, has far more than 2 players.
