Courage and determination $\overset{(1)}{\text{\underline{{have took}}}}$ Bill Pinkney to places he had only read about in his youth. In $1992$, Pinkney made his dream come true by sailing around the world alone. He $\overset{(2)}{\text{\underline{{had become}}}}$ the first African American to accomplish that feat. For a man who claims to be a terrible swimmer, the trip must have been especially challenging. Pinkney $\overset{(3)}{\text{\underline{{will have said}}}}$, however, that when a person is $5,000$ miles from shore, a safety harness $\overset{(4)}{\text{\underline{{was}}}}$ far more important than knowing the backstroke.
Pinkney $\overset{(5)}{\text{\underline{{gone}}}}$ on another adventure in $1999$. That voyage retraced the Middle Passage, a route across the Atlantic Ocean that slave ships $\overset{(6)}{\text{\underline{{have used}}}}$ for hundreds of years. He $\overset{(7)}{\text{\underline{{had saw}}}}$ this voyage as an opportunity to draw attention to a period of history that is too often ignored. If Pinkney $\overset{(8)}{\text{\underline{{were}}}}$ self-centered, he would have traveled alone, but he invited 16 educators to join him. He wanted to $\overset{(9)}{\text{\underline{{learn}}}}$ people about the slave route from Africa to the Americas. Who knows what other goals Pinkney $\overset{(10)}{\text{\underline{{sets}}}}$ for himself in the future?
