I was never a great athlete but I managed to win a prize once. My house-master reckoned I might have a chance to win. We were each given three jumps. I thought I jumped very well the first time but it was a foul jump. So I waited for my next jump.

I saw the other competitors leap like gazelles into the sand-pit. When one particular tall boy, the eventual winner, made his jump, I knew that no one else would be able to beat him.

No one did. I was delighted to collect my little plastic Consolation Prize from the Headmaster.

'No one did'. What does the sentence mean?

A)  No one was delighted.

B)  No one won a prize.

C)  No one participated.

D)  No one could beat the boy.
