The correct answer is the third option "It has a positive connotation, suggesting the astrophysicist’s long-lasting and innocent fascination with the universe."

The use of words like "sense of wonder" and " looking at the night sky" are adding meaning, specifically an explanation to the word "childlike", have a positive meaning. Thus, the author wants to emphasize that the asthrophysicist never lost his original curiosity and fascination for the study of the stars, so the word "childlike" refers to his passion being quite similar to that of a child.

Claire and Elena are going on a road trip with their families. They plan to meet at Elena's house and then follow each other. Cl

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

C). The distance covered by Claire prior to 10 a.m. was 120 miles more than the distance covered by Elena prior to 10 a.m. After leaving Elena's house, Elena was on the road two hours more than Claire.

Explanation:

The third option correctly compares the distances covered by Claire and Elena. It aptly states that Claire covered a distance of 120 miles more than Elena before 10 a.m. as Claire begins her journey after 10 a.m. from 120 miles while Elena begins from 0(displayed in the paragraph). The next comparison is that Claire after 'leaving Elena's house', immediately begins her journey and covers 120 miles distance(total becomes 240) in the next two hours while Elena remains two hours on the road and begins her journey after that. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
