<span>move the decimal 2 spaces to the right. 2.16-->216 You need 21 ten rods and 6 cubes...... I wouldn't do 2 hundred flats because 2 isn't divisible by 3. Put the ten rods into 3 equal group, then do the same with the cubes. You should end up with 7 in each group since 21 divided by 3 is 7. You should also end up with 2 cubes in each group. So in one group you have 72. Now move the decimal back to where it came from, 2 spaces to the left. Now you have 0.72.

Strain means to make a great effort
Here you go The War of the Worlds was written long before our present time. So what they pictured to be a "futuristic" alien was different than what we perceive as extra terrestrial life. Although not that much.
To answer your question, one of the things that are similar would probably be the reaction that the civilians had to seeing a space shuttle falling out of the sky.
Another thing would be the civilians running away from the creature, because we usually run away from things we do not understand.
