Dr. Tyson's interview is not well-organized, while his preface is clearly organized so the reader can easily understand it.

The language  and the  accuracy of the information are different.

The language in the preface is more formal than the language in the interview. For example, "...that kind of makes sense.." in the interview is informal. What does "that" refer to? It is not specified. Then, " kind of.." is a colloquial expression. Then, " ..the international Astronomical...., they took a vote.." is too informal. Besides, the text does not explain why the IAU had to organise a vote. This is explained in the preface: "..when..... (IAU) prompted  by......, brought Pluto's planethood to a vote..".  This is another example of informal language and unclear information in the interview: "...and basically they said Pluto had to be reclassified..";  Who are <em>they</em>? the voters or the IAU?. Besides, the classification is not clear. This is clarified in the preface,' "..Plato was downgraded......... "dwarf planet",..'.  Besides, the preface uses formal language many  times: " prompted by pressure.."; "..brought Pluto's planethood to a vote.."; "..downgraded.."; "..thereby.." and " ..diffuse.."

Read the sentence below and use context clues to determine the meaning of the word enthralled: I thought I would be bored by the
ycow [4]
<span>"I thought I would be bored by the Shakespeare play, but I was enthralled the whole time"
 
this is the correct use of the word enthralled as enthralled means to excite and captive the attention of someone or thing, and as you can see in the sentence that he was originally expecting to hate the play, but he uses the word "but" which negates the previous statement and presumably anything followed by the but would be along the lines of him actually liking the play</span>
