Step-by-step explanation of the answer:
To answer this question, we need to read the second sentence of the extract carefully. 📜
- It says that the instructor insisted that the author try out the technique in the deep end, but he refused. He assured him that he would be right there to save him if anything went wrong. But he was not persuaded. 😐
- This means that the instructor tried to convince the author to try out the technique in the deep end, but he failed. Why? 🤔
- The reason why the instructor failed to convince the author was that the author was not persuaded by his assurance that he would be right there to save him . The author did not trust or believe the instructor’s promise. He was still scared and reluctant to try out the technique in the deep end. 😟
Therefore, the statement is FALSE . The author was not persuaded by the instructor’s assurance that he would be right there to save him. This is how he shows his stubbornness and distrust towards the instructor. 🎉
