Read the passage. excerpt from "a relay race to remember" sean positioned himself for the dive and then splashed in; in an instant, he was gliding through the water like a dolphin. he put plenty of distance between himself and the raiders’ swimmer as they turned into the final lap. as sean came down the stretch, it looked as though the water held out a hand and pulled him down the swim lane. he reached the wall first and immediately looked for his time on the screen. how does the simile "he was gliding through the water like a dolphin" affect the story? it offers malik's point of view on sean's swimming and further develops malik as a character. it provides a complete, if unsatisfying, ending to the story. it develops the theme of the story by making a comparison between how malik swam and how sean swam. it injects surprise into the story by making a comparison that conveys how well sean performs in the race.

The right answer is alternative four.
In the excerpt from "A Relay Race to Remember," the expression "he was gliding through the water like a dolphin" injects surprise into the story by making a comparison between that conveys how well Sean performs in he race. The phrase describes that Sean swims as well as a dolphin, meaning that he executes brilliantly at the race.
The rest of the options are not correct because the remark does not develop Malik's character or depicts how he swims, and it is not the end of the story.
