Adding more specifics about the sailors’ beliefs about the island.

Explanation:

In the essay, the student tells us that both Whitney and Rainsford are acquainted with the beliefs of the sailors. While Rainsford believes these to be silly superstitions, Whitney admits to being nervous about them. However, it is difficult for the reader to reach a conclusion because he knows so little as to what the beliefs of the sailors are. Therefore, in order to create a better essay, the student should include more details about the sailors' beliefs.

A) adding more specifics about the sailors’ beliefs about the island.

Explanation: in the given excerpt from a student's essay about "The Most Dangerous Game" we can see the description of a conversation between Rainsford and Whitney about the Ship-Trap Island, in this conversation Whitney relates how the sailors feel about the island, but in the essay the student didn't explain what were exactly the sailors' feelings, so to expand the ideas in the excerpt the student should add more specifics about the sailors' beliefs about the island.
