The correct option is A. To put his face under water and exhale, and to raise his nose and inhale .

Step-by-step explanation of the answer:

To answer this question, we need to read the first sentence of the extract carefully. 📜

It says that the instructor taught the author to put his face under water and exhale, and to raise his nose and inhale. 🏊‍♂️

This means that the instructor taught the author a technique to do in the water. What is it? 🤔

We can look at the four options given and see which one matches what the instructor taught. 🕵️‍♂️

• • Option A says that the instructor taught the author to put his face under water and exhale, and to raise his nose and inhale. This is true, because this is exactly what the first sentence of the extract says. ✅
  • Option B says that the instructor taught the author to kick his legs and move his arms in a rhythmic motion. This is not true, because this is not mentioned in the first sentence of the extract. This is a technique for swimming, not for breathing in the water. ❌
  • Option C says that the instructor taught the author to float on his back and relax his muscles. This is not true, because this is also not mentioned in the first sentence of the extract. This is a technique for relaxing, not for breathing in the water. ❌
  • Option D says that the instructor taught the author to dive into the water and swim to the other end. This is not true, because this is also not mentioned in the first sentence of the extract. This is a technique for diving, not for breathing in the water. ❌

Therefore, the correct option is A. To put his face under water and exhale, and to raise his nose and inhale . This is what the instructor taught the author to do in the water. 🎉
