Answer

Brief Explanations:

The passage states that after performing Twyla Tharp's "Sinatra Suite" before being promoted to soloist in 2007, American Ballet Theater's artistic director Kevin McKenzie brought her acting talent to her attention. She said "You're changing character from song to song" and it was the first - time she realized she could be good at acting. This indicates that performing in a production where she had to dance as multiple characters prompted her realization.
