Read the following excerpt from H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds, and answer the question that follows: Yet so vain is man, and

so blinded by his vanity, that no writer, up to the very end of the nineteenth century, expressed any idea that intelligent life might have developed there far, or indeed at all, beyond its earthly level. Nor was it generally understood that since Mars is older than our earth, with scarcely a quarter of the superficial area and remoter from the sun, it necessarily follows that it is not only more distant from time's beginning but nearer its end. Which of the following details comes from supporting evidence? (5 points) Man is blinded by his own vanity. No one has traveled to Mars. The writer lived in the 19th century. Mars is farther from the sun than Earth.

So it this case, it might be said that the supporting evidence is the first option "man is blinded by his own vanity". It provides a "shocking idea" to prove a point and then an example is given to support this evidence.
