How ferociously the sun glares these days! It was scorching hot today. Is it the effect of global warming? I am certain; this heat wave is unbearable because of the global warming. If at the onset of summer the mercury is so high, what will people and animal do in the month of June? The sun was biting the skin on my arms and neck! I felt it might wear holes in my skin! Thank God there are still some trees left in the city along roads. If I had not taken refuge under one of them I would surely have burnt myself of the intense heat of the sun. I know it is all because of man’s recklessness towards the environment. If man had not cut forests on such large scale the world would not heat up so much! If man had controlled the emission of green house gases, global warming could have been checked. But alas! Man learns from tragedies only. What can I do?
A metaphor compares two unlike things without using 'like' or 'as'. Example: Happiness is a warm puppy. Happiness (an abstract concept) is being compared to a puppy (a physical object).
Answer:
Hello there! I can see where this passage may have caused confusion. It stumped me for a little bit, but I have reached a conclusion.
Explanation:
The answer is C. 1. Newton developed his laws of gravity, 2. Einstein developed his explanation of gravity, 3. Scientists predicted black holes.
If you're wondering why, it's simple. In the second paragraph, it states "Glitches like this one were the reason Einstein worked so hard at coming up with a new explanation." Meaning, Einstein tried to come up with a more acceptable explanation for gravity because Newton's law had a few flaws. Therefore, the answer is C. Hope this provides you with the help you needed!
Have a great rest of your day!
