Question 8 (5 points) (MC)
Read the passage and then answer the question that follows.
When Mike adjusted his bicycle, I thought I was watching a chess game. He would stare at a part for a while before he acted. Then we would
wait for his opponent's response. For example, he stared for ten minutes before tightening the rear sprockets. Then he rode the bike for a
minute, analyzing the change in the bike's performance. At first, I thought he was too careful. Now, I realize he didn't want the bicycle to
become his Waterloo
