Answer 1

Hint: Diary entry is an important writing skill. For many people, it is a part of their everyday life. The feelings, emotions, events are recorded in a diary entry in the original format as they happened. Therefore, true feelings are associated with a diary entry.

Complete answer:
Let us analyze each option one by one.
Option A is “And soon, he realized he had been looking upon a ghost-like figure..”The statement represents feelings and emotions as mentioned in the hint. Therefore, option A can be the correct answer.
Option B is “I will see a ghost-like shape..” This statement does not match the conditions mentioned in the hint. Also, it presents the probability or future event that has not happened yet. Therefore, option B is an incorrect answer.
Option C is “I thought I was seeing a ghost!”. This statement does not match the conditions mentioned in the hint. Therefore, option C is incorrect.
Option D is “Ghost! Ghost!” he shouted as he ran..” This statement does not match the conditions mentioned in the hint. Therefore, option D is also incorrect.

Note:
The statement in which it seems that the writer is talking to his or her best friend is the statement that is most suitable for recording in a diary. Diary writing involves lots of emotions, feelings, and facts. This will help us in identifying the right answer.
