    You can use variables to track which achievements a player has earned.

    1. Initialise the variables within your story's startup tagged passage.
    You can name the variables whatever you like. 
    (set: $achievementA to false)
(set: $achievementB to false)
(set: $achievementC to false)

    2. Change the related variable's value to true when the player achieve the achievement. 
    (set: $achievementB to true)

    3. Use an (if:) macro to check which achievements the player has obtained. 
    (if: $achievementA)[You have Achievement A]
(if: $achievementB)[You have Achievement B]
(if: $achievementC)[You have Achievement C]

    Had you visited the link, you'd know that the tag is called... "startup", and all passages with that tag will be run at... "startup".

    Now its appearing with:


    (if:)'s 1st value is the number 0, but should be a boolean.►
    If you gave a number, you may instead want to check that the number is not 0. If you gave a string, you may instead want to check that the string is not "".

    If you look at the Reference section of the Twine 2 Guide you will see a link to the Editing Passages page which explains about Changing a passage's tags.

    If you look at my previous examples you will see that the variables used Boolean values of true and false, and that I initialised the variables to false before the story/game started. Any variable that is not initialised by you will be automatically assign a value of zero.

    rather than a startup tag which produces a bit of lag you could do this as well
    status:(if: $achievementA is 1)[Achieved] (else:)[Locked]
    status:(if: $achievementB is 1)[Achieved] (else:)[Locked]
    status:(if: $achievementC is 1)[Achieved] (else:)[Locked]
    and then like greyelf said, in a certain passage
    (set: $achievementA to 1)
    basically removing booleans
