Which sentence could replace sentence 5 to make the paragraph more precise? Read the paragraph from Liam's narrative.
1. I had never been more frightened in my entire life.
2. As I stepped onto the diving platform, I waited for instructions from my diving coach.
3. Only because his directions were so clear, and because he was so nice, I was able to do it.
4. It had all been worth it, I thought, as I changed from my bathing suit back into clothes.
5. I had achieved what I had set out to do. [REPLACE THIS SENTENCE WITH ONE OF THE OPTIONS BELOW]

A. I was able to accomplish the goal I had set for myself. (what he specifically set out to do is still NOT precisely stated)
B. I had finally managed to dive from the highest platform. ( Yes. precisely stated)
C. I had surprised myself by being able to do what I didn't think I could. (still not precisely stated)
D. I truly owed a lot o Coach Wilkerson for all the help he had given me. ( nope )

My question is.. if the correct answer is B. I had finally managed to dive from the highest platform, because IT IS A MORE PRECISE way of stating sentence 5, then why has this question been mostly answered incorrectly SO much, taking up valuable answer slots? Please answer to post this.
