I think it is D) By the end of the story - no one could believe it - the main character was dead
The right answer is alternative four.
In the excerpt from "A Relay Race to Remember," the expression "he was gliding through the water like a dolphin" injects surprise into the story by making a comparison between that conveys how well Sean performs in he race. The phrase describes that Sean swims as well as a dolphin, meaning that he executes brilliantly at the race.

Answer:
secondary source
Explanation:
An encyclopedia entry about the Battle of Gettysburg is considered a secondary source of information.
The Battle of Gettysburg was fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. The battle involved the largest number of casualties of the entire war and is often described as the war's turning point.
An encyclopedia is considered a secondary and even tertiary source. It is secondary because it does not include first-hand account of the (historical) events, and it is considered tertiary because it mostly quotes/cites other secondary sources such as journals, newspaper articles, books etc.
A primary source consists of only first-hand accounts of the experiences and events.
A secondary source consists of analyses, critical essays about first-hand accounts (primary sources).
