Read this passage. First of all, if someone says your dream is impossible, they’re wrong. You can’t prove that something is impo

ssible—all you know is that [it] hasn’t been done yet. People said no one could scale Mount Everest, but in 1953, Sir Edmund Hilary and Tenzing Norgay gazed down upon the world from its summit. People said that man could not fly, but in 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first sustained powered flight in a heavier-than-air machine.

The author states that men have walked on the moon.

The author shares historical information about the Wright brothers.

100 POINTS PLEASE ANSWER
Andrej [43]

The proposal that the committee should choose is proposal 2.
