Papessa [141]

Answer:

The author's use of simile:

B. It helps the reader visualize the increased number of exoplanets discovered.

Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech used with the intention of making a comparison - stating a similarity - between two different things. A simile needs help of words such as "as" or "like".

In the text, the discovery of planets and exoplanets was compared to billiard balls in a pool game. First, discovering planets was similar to a regular game, in which it is easy to see and count the balls. But, <u>as more and more exoplanets were discovered, scientists could no longer run tally.</u> That is why it was like a pool player making a big, smashing break: planets, like the billiard balls, were everywhere. The text moves on the describe it as an <u>"inordinate number"</u>. Therefore, <u>we can say safely say the simile is being used to help the reader visualize the increased number of exoplanets discovered.</u>

Most students have difficulty in deciding what to study after high
dedylja [7]

Answer:

I did not experience trouble deciding what fields to study in after high school.

Explanation:

Having known that I have always been a very kinesthetic learner, and since it was apparent that I enjoyed a fluctuation in my day-to-day activities, I have known that I wanted to study gastroenterology. This profession not only allows me to provide a helping hand to the world around me, but I may also experience new things every single day. The paycheck also persuaded me...just a little.
