Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. B

oth are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources. What is one clue word or phrase in the passage that indicates a contrast?
A. However B. Both C. In any case D. Because

several characters criticized Romeo for falling in love too quickly . do you believe this is true ? does his tendency towards in
valina [46]
For me, personally, Romeo's love never seemed real, especially if you take into consideration that Romeo and Juliet knew each other for about a month, or so. You cannot start loving someone in such a short period of time, especially given that Romeo is like 18, and Juliet 14. 
Compared to modern ideas of love, their love is much more romanticized, it no longer exists (if it ever did), and it seems quite unreal.
