Read this lighthearted essay about riding a bike.
nlexa [21]

I have looked this question up and found it is about a couple of paragraphs from the essay "Taming a Bicycle" by Mark Twain. Since the essay is long, I will not post it here. But it can easily be found online.

Answer:

The three descriptions which reflect the purpose of the essay are:

1. to entertains the reader with humorous ideas related to bike riding.

3. to inform the reader about the process of learning to ride a bike

5. to instruct the reader about how to get on a bike

Explanation:

In his humorous essay "Taming a Bicycle," Mark Twain describes the process of learning how to ride a bicycle in a most interesting way. At the same time he assures readers they will fall, he also assures them that they will keep on trying. After all, that is the beauty of riding a bike: it is dangerous, it can hurt you, and that is exactly why you want to do it.

Twain compares riding a bike to learning German, making the latter seem uninteresting and complicated. He also tells readers what is involved in riding (balance, propel, steer, etc.) and how to get on the bike, which he describes in a most funny way, as if it were a matter that demands great attention and a step-by-step explanation.
