Which excerpt from A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole is meant to help readers understand what a black hole looks like?

“If you could somehow take a close-up picture of a black hole, it wouldn't be one for the scrapbook. It would just be blank . . . and black.”
“Just outside the event horizon of a black hole, light's energy keeps it zipping along, like that fish swimming along the outer edge of a whirlpool.”
“As the light continues traveling in its new direction, it gets even closer to the center of the black hole, where gravity is even stronger.”
“Just as you rely on the rise and fall of a melody's tune and volume to recognize a particular song, scientists look for a unique pattern in the rise and fall of the X-rays to identify a black hole.”

Returning from vietnam, we were given a parade. crowds of screaming people waving signs — not just on one road, one day. no, they were everywhere. every day. on the streets, on the television, on the radio. a hot, angry tangle of shaking fists and ugly words that threatened us like a monster with a hundred heads. our country had chewed us up and spit us out, and now we were being treated as if it were our fault. which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's tone? a. our feet were frozen in place as the street itself strained to hold us back. b. i felt unappreciated and condemned for actions i had thought were heroic. c. i hadn't expected to find myself in a rags-to-riches situation such as this. d. we had come home to a feeding frenzy and were being treated as bait.

Read the excerpt from hemingway’s a farewell to arms. we parked the cars beyond the brickyard. the ovens and some deep holes had been equipped as dressing stations. there were three doctors that i knew. i talked with the major and learned that when it should start and our cars should be loaded we would drive them back along the screened road and up to the main road along the ridge where there would be a post and other cars to clear them. which best describes hemingway’s style of writing in the excerpt? straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader long-winded and offering far too much information to the reader overly complicated, making it difficult to interpret and understand the text effortless and uncomplicated, with little meaning for the reader to interpret
