Answer:
D.
Explanation:
An aphorism is a short statement that reflects wit and delivers a message or moral principle. An aphorism is identified by its length or use of number of words in the statement and the true value it consists.
For example, 'Action speaks louder than words' is an aphorism which conveys the meaning that even if there is lack of words, the action of a person says it all about the person.
<em>'No gains without pains'</em> is an aphorism which conveys the meaning that good fruits are produced in burying; there is no result without working hard for it.
The evidence that challenges this aphorism is in option D. The option clearly exemplifies that the team practiced extra two hours daily (hard-work) which produced the result of the team winning.
So, the correct answer is option D.
