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

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".

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>.

Answer:
Interpersonal
Explanation:
By dictionary definition, interpersonal means: <em>"relating to relationships or communication between people"</em>. This definition is very close to <em>"Can relate well to others"</em>.
Some word options make no sense at all, such as <u>MusicBody,</u> Kinesthetic (which is related to positional awareness), <u>Spatial</u> (which is similar to the anterior), Mathematical, and Logical.
Linguistic relates to tongues, but it doesn't mean you're social because you express yourself well. And Intrapersonal is the opposite of Interpersonal.
