Question 1 of 30👑 VIP
Read the following passage and answer the question. "Maya stood at the edge of the diving board, staring down at the glittering blue water twelve feet below. Her teammates cheered her name, but their voices sounded distant, muffled by the thundering in her ears. She had practiced this dive a hundred times in her mind, visualizing every tuck, every rotation. Yet now, with the crowd watching, her feet refused to move. Then she remembered what Coach Reyes had told her: 'Courage isn't the absence of fear. It's deciding that something else matters more.' Maya took a single deep breath, rolled her shoulders back, and stepped off the edge." Which statement BEST describes what the phrase 'their voices sounded distant, muffled by the thundering in her ears' reveals about Maya?
