Select the correctly spelled sentence.

Correct — B. All four options say the same thing, so the item is settled letter by letter, on three words.

achievements keeps the -ie- of achieve, the possessive is athlete's with the apostrophe before the s, and impressive has a single r.

Option (b) is the only line on which all three survive.

Why the others are wrong

• (a)
  The athlete's acheivements are impressive. — acheivements swaps the i and the e. The stem is achieve, spelled a-c-h-i-e-v-e, and the noun keeps that order.
• (c)
  The athletees achievements are impressive. — athletees is not a word, and the sentence needs a possessive, not a plural. It should read athlete's, apostrophe before the s.
• (d)
  The athlete’s achievements are imprressive. — imprressive doubles the r. Impressive has one r after the p and a double s in the middle.

Select-the-correctly-spelled-sentence items are proofreading, not comprehension. Every option carries the same meaning, so reading for sense wastes the time.

The faults SSC plants are a small set: a swapped ie/ei pair, a doubled or undoubled consonant, and a misplaced or missing apostrophe.

Scan the same word across all four options and compare only the letters that differ — that is faster than reading four whole sentences.

Key facts

• achieve and achievement keep the letter order -ie-, not -ei-.
• The singular possessive of athlete is athlete's, with the apostrophe before the s.
• impressive has one r and a double s.

Common traps

• Reading each option for meaning when only the spelling differs.
• Accepting athletes without an apostrophe as a possessive form.
• Stopping at the first correct word instead of checking every option for a second planted error.
