A student's essay repeatedly states, 'I am a very resilient person.' To help the student *demonstrate* this quality more effectively, what specific advice should the advisor provide?
✓ Correct Answer: Option B
The principle of 'show, don't tell' is crucial. Instead of simply stating a quality, an effective essay demonstrates it through narrative, allowing the reader to infer the trait based on actions and reflections.
