3 0

Answer:

B. As a prepared athlete with an unusual life.

Explanation:

The literary piece "Fastest Woman in the World " by Pat Parker tells the story of how Wilma Rudolph came to be one of the most celebrated and famous sportswomen. The article details how Wilma encountered and overcame numerous obstacles to become an Olympic champion.

At the beginning of the article, the author reveals how Wilma was <em>"poised for the race"</em> just before the signal was given. But despite this<em> "poised" </em>appearance, things were not smooth sailing for the sportswoman. The author revealed <em>"Wilma wasn’t an ordinary athlete",</em> suggestive of something behind the façade of a poised woman ready to take on the race.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
