Read the excerpt from A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole by Carolyn Cinami DeCristofano.

Einstein's idea of gravity had big consequences. It helped explain some observations that Newton's idea didn't account for. It also opened our minds to amazing new possibilities. For example, taking his cue from Einstein's idea that space bends, scientist Karl Schwarzschild began to think about what would happen if a place in space were extremely distorted. His light would follow the hyper-bent space, never to turn away from it. This was the first prediction of a black hole. At first, some scientists (including Einstein!) rejected Schwarzschild's ideas. Others were intrigued and began searching the skies for real black holes. Just decades later, they found the first of them. It just goes to show: sometimes, as Einstein himself once said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Which sentence is the best summary of the excerpt?

Einstein opened our minds to amazing new possibilities and showed us that imagination is more important than knowledge.

Scientists searched the skies for decades before they found the first real black holes.

Karl Schwarzschild used his imagination when he thought about light and extremely distorted parts of space.

Einstein’s idea that space bends inspired scientists to predict and later discover black holes.

i think its the last one

Explanation:

cuz it says Einstein's idea of gravity had big consequences. It helped explain some observations that Newton's idea didn't account for. It also opened our minds to amazing new possibilities. For example, taking his cue from Einstein's idea that space bends, scientist Karl Schwarzschild began to think about what would happen if a place in space were extremely distorted.

Well, Your best answer will be is D. Einstein’s idea that space bends inspired scientists to predict and later discover black holes. Because, This whole excerpt tells us of an impressive hypothesis that was later confirmed - the existence of black holes. What this paragraph makes very clear is that it was Einstein's interpretation of gravity that cleared the way for the idea about black holes to emerge. Einstein's ideas had other scientists thinking differently than they had done so far. They had been taking Newton's discoveries as the sole possibility to work with. Einstein opened a new door, one that allowed scientists such as Schwarzschild to come up with amazing new ideas. Good Luck!

yup its an addiction

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?
