Help me plss "This can't be happening," thought Jim as he barrelled down the field, the ball tucked under his arm and the endzone a mere five yards away. "Just a month ago I was the waterboy, dreaming of a chance to play and now this?!?!" Jim's thoughts raced through his head silently, almost unconsciously, as he dove over the line to the sound of roaring applause. As his teammates mobbed him, slapping his helmet and yelling congratulations, he thought once more, "This just can't be happening..."

Which line of dialogue, if added to the end of the passage, would be MOST like the other lines of dialogue in the passage?

A) "I'm just not sure I deserve to be here."
B) "I knew it all along: I was born to win!"
C) "Those jokers on the other side can eat the mud on my cleats!"
D) None of these lines of dialogue match the other lines of dialogue in the passage.

Answer:

I would say A) "I'm just not sure I belong here" because it matches the tone of the other dialogue. The rest of the dialogue in the story is a little self deprecating and suggesting that Jim feels like an imposter or like he's not good enough for the team. A) is the only dialogue that matches this tone of self-conciousness
