Read the excerpt from "How to Ride".

You may commence with the saddle a little low, but do not use it this way long enough to allow yourself to become fixed in a bad habit. Raise the saddle until high enough to cause a complete straightening out of the knee and a little dropping of the toes when the pedals are at the lowest point. Place the saddle far enough forward to get the position . . . . The peak of the saddle should be a little forward of the crank shaft. However, as saddles vary in length, this rule is somewhat arbitrary. There should be no sensation of kicking backward. As you place the saddle forward raise it in front.

Read the excerpt from The Common Sense of Bicycling: Bicycling for Ladies.

When both feet are on the pedals, they oppose each other. The weight should be lifted from the ascending pedal, or else the descending foot must push the other foot up until that foot is in a position to exert a downward pressure. This instruction applies to forward pedaling only; for back pedaling or backing, the movement should be reversed. Practise pushing first with one foot and then with the other, taking the weight off the opposite pedal in each case. At each push of the pedal, a little pull on the handle-bars, pulling with the hand on the same side on which you are pushing with the foot, will keep the wheel from falling.

Answer: A. completeness, because the information is thorough.

Although all of the answers highlight a characteristic present on the excerpts, the most relevant one is A. The excerpts are particularly thorough, as they explain in detail each element that is necessary to understand in order to master the skill they are presenting.
