Question
hana’s coach held up a rubber band and stretched it. then she let go of the ends, and the band snapped back to its original length. she said to the team, \this rubber band has resilience. i can stretch it, but it doesn’t break or remain stretched out. it regains its shape after a bit of stress. team, you also have resilience. this season will require a lot of you, but i know you will stay strong and get through it.\
that is similar in meaning to resilience.
they have
the ability to stretch before practice
the ability to work as a team
the ability to play a sport
the ability to recover from stress well
To determine the meaning of "resilience" from the context, the coach explains the rubber band's resilience as being stretched but not breaking or remaining stretched, and regaining its shape. Then she relates it to the team, saying the season will have stress but they'll stay strong. So we analyze each option:
- "the ability to stretch before practice" is about physical stretching before practice, not related to bouncing back from stress. Eliminate.
- "the ability to work as a team" is about teamwork, not about recovering from stress. Eliminate.
- "the ability to play a sport" is about sport - playing skills, not related to recovery from stress. Eliminate.
- "the ability to recover from stress well" matches the idea of the rubber band regaining its shape (recovering) and the team staying strong through stress (recovering from stress).
