which of the following best explains those are things we dont get back for in the passage? we—the players—had to fight for the union, and fight to make it better. this is critical to our success. we dont get paid for. a. cash is seeking sympathy for how difficult it has been to be a wnba player. b. cash is threatening that there may be an upcoming strike. c. cash is calling out the first generation of players for not making a sacrifice. d. cash is emphasizing efforts she made that were driven by her values.

Explanation:

The passage is about Cash (a WNBA player) talking about fighting for the union and issues players face (like not getting paid fairly). Option D says Cash is emphasizing efforts driven by her values, which aligns with fighting for what's right (union, better conditions) as a value - driven effort. Option A: seeking sympathy? The passage is about fighting, not seeking sympathy. Option B: threatening a strike? No mention of strike. Option C: calling out players? No, it's about what they (players) don't get, not calling out players for not sacrificing. So D is correct.

Answer:

D. Cash is emphasizing efforts she made that were driven by her values.
