Read the passage.

From John F. Kennedy’s Inaugural Address We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this Nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world. In this passage, what does Kennedy say that Americans dare not forget?

that they are a new generation of Americans

that they are witnessing the loss of human rights

that they are descendants of freedom fighters

that they are loyal to their nation and the world
