    It looks like Dave is the weak sister of the team. He failed his first kick! - ProProfs

    It looks like Dave is the weak sister of the team. He failed his first kick!

    • Not being confident

    • Being a great player

    Correct Answer
    A. Not being confident
    Explanation
    Dave's failure to make his first kick suggests that he lacks confidence. Confidence is an important attribute for success in any team, especially in sports. Without confidence, players may doubt their abilities and make mistakes. In this case, Dave's lack of confidence led to his failure. Being a great player is not mentioned in the given statement, so it cannot be considered as the reason for Dave's failure.
