I would say that the best answer for the question: Which revision would make this paragraph suitable for presentation, would be, A: Inserting stronger verbs and a more active voice.

Explanation:

Although it seems that the intention of the writer of this paragraph is to call the attention of readers, and almost invite them to become curious, about other sports that are not necessarily the most popular in the U.S, but are much more popular around the world, the way that he phrases his paragraph feels almost flat. In fact, it feels more like a report of facts, that inform a reader about the existence of other types of sports, but it does not convey any sort of feeling, or any excitement that would interest a reader to feel connected, and actually want to know more about these other sports. To achieve this, the use of stronger verbs, and using elements of active voice that actually turn the narration even more active, will give life to this paragraph and actually engage people´s curiosity and desire for more information.
