The speaker thinks (feels) that her daughter is growing up very fast and uncontrollably, so the speaker feels a wistful feeling towards past years in which her daughter was young and just learning to ride a bike, and the speaker wishes her daughter to remain forever in her chidlike state and never grow up.

The poet  illustrates the speaker's feelings towards her daughter by drawing a comparison between different moments of their  life. Both the moment when the speaker taught her daughter how to ride a bike and the moment when the daughter is leaving home are being compared. During her daughter's childhood, the speaker was by her daughter's side , yet she could not tell if she would have been able to prevent her daughter from falling off the bike . The poet says that the speaker waited for a thud while teaching her daughter to ride. The daughter finally  got to learn how to ride and disappeared in the distance saying goodbye through her handkerchief. The daughter being a grown up now will leave home. Although the speaker must have done her best to take care of her daughter, she will never be able to prevent her daughter from suffering.

Answer:

Ok I got you.

Prediction-

Predicting earthquakes helps reduce the impact of earthquakes because it gives people time to prepare for them.

I'm not really sure what they are trying to ask, but I would say on a developing country the impact would differ because predicting the earthquake would give people time to plan.

Protection-

People have died during earthquakes, so having the proper protection would mean being able to take refuge in a stable building that would not implode or disintegrate. This would help lessen the amount of casualties, because most people who die in earthquakes are killed from fallen rubble.

Protection from earthquakes would also help developing countries find better ways to build their homes and buildings. This gives them the opportunity to perfect the construction of buildings that can adapt to the volatility of earthquakes

Preparation-

Preparation helps reduce the impact of an earthquake by ensuring that people have the correct and multiple resources needed to survive.

Giving people in developing countries time to prepare for an earthquake betters their chances for survival. Seeing as though they may not have as many resources as citizens in developed countries do, they must rely on other things. For example earthquakes in and underdeveloped country might the people living there to move out of their homes and into a more stable environment.

Sorry this took so long :/Hope it helps
