Answer:
A. Athletes who overcame incredible obstacles to excel in sports.
Explanation:
As seen in the given passages, both passages talk about the way both Jackie Robinson and Wilma Rudolph came to be sports greats. The passages contain details about how both of them overcame the many and hard obstacles to get to where they are now.
Passage 1 provides details of the great baseball legend Jackie Robinson and his way to becoming one of the greats in the game and also the very first black man to play in the Major Leagues in the 20th century. His journey was filled with <em>"malicious catcalls and racial slurs shouted from the stands and even anonymous death threats"</em>, even at times enduring <em>"rival players [who] threw pitches at Robinson’s head, spat on him when he slid into a base and attempted to injure him with the spikes on their shoes"</em>.
Passage 2 reveals the journey of Wilma Rudolph who had to overcome <em>"pneumonia, polio, and scarlet fever"</em> that left her unable to walk properly. But despite all odds, she came to be<em> "one of America’s first great track and field athletes"</em>.
Thus, <u>both passages provide information about these two athletes who overcame incredible obstacles to be what they are now, excelling in their own fields.</u>

Scott Fitzgerald, it is possible to see how Nick has a real interest to present himself to the famous, mysterious and millionaire Gatsby, however he notices there is something really personal happening through his mind at that moment. Nick can see from the distance how Gatsby is in a deep thinking moment as he stretches his arms towards the water with his trembling body, which looks like an intimate moment, a moment after Gatsby simply disappears and Nick finds himself alone again.
