franklin roosevelt’s new deal promised security and succor to those in need. but the new frontier of which i speak is not a set of promises. it is a set of challenges. it sums up not what i intend to offer to the american people, but what i intend to ask of them. it appeals to their pride, not to their pocketbook – it holds out the promise of more sacrifice instead of more security.

Explanation:

1. Compare Kennedy's text to the first option: Kennedy states the New Frontier asks people to act (not offers for them), matching the first option.
2. Compare to the second option: Kennedy frames the New Frontier as challenges, not protective promises, matching the second option.
3. Compare to the third option: Kennedy says it appeals to pride/patriotism, not security, so this option is incorrect.
4. Compare to the fourth option: Kennedy says it is challenges, not promises, so this option is incorrect.

Answer:

• It will call on people of the US to act instead of acting for them.
• It will challenge people of the US instead of protecting them.
