| A. Nothing should be done in a hurry. + Nothing can be done slowly. B. Nothing should be done in a hurry. + The thing can be done slowly. C. It is impossible to divide this sentence into two sentences. Which is a correct understanding (or a better understanding), A, B, or C? Thanks for your kind help. |

(in order to understand it. The sentence itself is fine). Nothing that can be done slowly should be done in a hurry. If you can do something slowly, you shouldn't do it in a hurry. If there is something you have to do, and you have the choice of doing it in a hurry or slowly; you should do it slowly. |

| (not a professional teacher) I really like this one, I think it does an excellent job of making very clear the meaning of the original sentence. |
