The sentence that best paraphrases the meaning of the excerpt is the first option: "We’re afraid because our leader looks scared".

In the sentence, 'helmsman' refers to the person who directs a ship or boat. This idea can be paraphrased by means of the word 'leader', just like it happens in the sentence.<u> This is the correct option because the original sentence states that both the helmsman and his subordinates are scared as well as in the first option</u>. The second and fourth option do not imply that the subordinates are afraid; therefore, they are incorrect. Moreover, the third option is also incorrect because it states that the captain is not terrified.
