Read the following excerpt and pay close attention to the words the author uses: Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the
industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of
nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of
the coming age of space. We mean to be a part of it--we mean to lead it. For the
eyes of the world now look into space, to the moon and to the planets beyond. We
have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag of conquest, but by a
banner of freedom and peace. We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with
weapons of mass destruction, but with instruments of knowledge and understanding.

Which is the best paraphrase of the text? the capability of a bicycle makes some people want to go very fast and others to go very slow. as long as you are careful, feel free to ride like the wind. when feeling brave on a bicycle you should ride fast, but when feeling afraid riding slow is wise. if you are unable to coast, it is pointless to even ride. if you’re going to ride a bicycle, you should throw caution to the wind and take over the road, swerving where you like and taking full advantage of your ride. it’s a real joy to be able to ride a bicycle, where you have the choice of going as fast or as slow as you like, using as much courage as you feel like using.
