Answer:

B. “Science said, ‘It is possible’”

Explanation:

The span was beautiful and astonishing that grabbing attention of everyone and despite the many doubts of the people of New York science made the construction of the bridge or span possible.

The great structure of the span is itself a wonder and person can feel proud for making it possible. So, this phrase “Science said, ‘It is possible’”  is a fact that supports the opinion that the bridge is “a wonder of science”.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. “Science said, ‘It is possible’”.
