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.."

Izanami and izanagi created japan when they stirred the ocean with :_________
Elan Coil [88]

Izanami and Izanagi created japan when they stirred the ocean with a jeweled spear.

Izanagi and Izanami are considered the creators of the Japanese archipelago and the ancestors of many deities, including the sun goddess Amaterasu, the moon deity Tsukuyomi, and the storm god Susanoo.

They were the eighth pair of brother and sister gods that appeared after heaven and earth separated from chaos. By standing on the floating bridge of the heavens and stirring the primordial ocean with the bejeweled sky spear, they created the first landmass.

Hence, the correct answer is Option D, A jeweled spear.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP MEEEE?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

D. Jonas raises an army to violently overthrow the industry leaders.

Explanation:

A contrived ending to the story is one created in a way that seems artificial and unrealistic. The most contrived ending would be the one where Jonas raises an army to violently overthrow the industry leaders.

The rest of the options seem more or less possible. Jonas' supporters could turn their back on him, the industry leaders' plan could backfire, or they could ruin Jonas' reputation. These endings would seem believable. However, it would be impossible for Jonas to raise an army. An individual wouldn't be able to do that in real life, which is why this type of ending wouldn't make sense.
