Question

1 Ironically, it is from my much younger—and, I used to think, less wise—brother that I learned the value of being honest even when a lie may seem far more tempting at the time. 2 I knew that what he did that day must have been extremely difficult for him. 3 Yet there he stood, taking responsibility for his actions with not a glimmer of hesitation. 4 It is this determination and resolve to do what is right—even when what is right is not what is easy—that I remembered many years later in college when faced with a similar predicament of my own.

Which best revises sentence 2 to make it more precise?

A- Watching him bravely tell the truth about what had really happened that day and how he had been the one responsible for the destruction of our neighbor’s award-winning flower garden, I realized that he knew he would likely face unpleasant consequences.
B- I tried to imagine how difficult it must have been for someone so young to do something so courageous and what must have been going through his mind, but all I could think about was the punishment he would probably receive for doing the right thing.
C- Although my brother appeared to be acting bravely, I was certain he was tempted to do the wrong thing that day to avoid some sort of unpleasant punishment, and I thought for a second that he would change his mind at the last moment.
D- My brother’s actions that day were very admirable, and I remember wondering how someone so young could do something like that, and then I wondered if I would do the same thing or something different just to avoid getting into unwanted trouble.
