what can you conclude from these two excerpts about evert and navratilova?
a they preferred playing matches indoors rather than in outdoor stadiums.
b they had absolutely nothing in common when it came to tennis.
c they used the same proven strategies to outplay each other.
d they had different personalities and strengths on the court.
excerpt 1
excerpt 2
a comparison of personalities shows similar contrasts. evert showed little emotion during matches. navratilova was known for her explosive nature. she argued with the judges over calls, chatted with the courtside fans, and scolded herself over errors. their differences even extended to the hands they favored. evert was right handed and navratilova was a lefty. what they had in common was a drive to be the very best in the game.

Explanation:

• Option A: The excerpt doesn't mention indoor/outdoor preferences, so A is incorrect.
• Option B: The excerpt states they had a common drive to be best, so B (nothing in common) is wrong.
• Option C: The excerpt highlights differences (personality, handedness) and a common drive, not same strategies, so C is incorrect.
• Option D: The excerpt shows Evert was unemotional, Navratilova was explosive (different personalities), and they had different handedness (different strengths/attributes on court), so D matches the conclusion.

Answer:

D. They had different personalities and strengths on the court.
