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.

Answer:

Explanation:

Writing and presenting Poster Topic: In the short story, "Village People', the villagers suffer greatly because of the ongoing drought. Recently, many parts of South Africa have received insufficient rain, bringing dam levels right down. A poster can be a valuable tool to inform the public how to conserve water. This type of poster is known as a social issue poster. You will design a social issue poster to inform people how to conserve water. Copies of the poster will be put up in public places around your town/area. (NOTE: Illustrations or drawings are not necessary as you will be assessed only on the written text of the poster. If you wish, you may indicate what illustration/images you will use by means of a block or circle; write down what it is within the block/circle, e.g. photo of leaking drums of toxic waste.)
