Select the correct text in the passage. which lines in this excerpt from war of the worlds by h.g. wells suggest a future in which humans will inhabit distant planets? it seems to me that they have lost a vast advantage in the failure of their first surprise. possibly they see it in the same light. lessing has advanced excellent reasons for supposing that the martians have actually succeeded in effecting a landing on the planet venus. seven months ago now, venus and mars were in alignment with the sun; that is to say, mars was in opposition from the point of view of an observer on venus. subsequently a peculiar luminous and sinuous marking appeared on the unillumined half of the inner planet, and almost simultaneously a faint dark mark of a similar sinuous character was detected upon a photograph of the martian disk. one needs to see the drawings of these appearances in order to appreciate fully their remarkable resemblance in character. it may be that across the immensity of space the martians have watched the fate of these pioneers of theirs and learned their lesson, and that on the planet venus they have found a securer settlement. be that as it may, for many years yet there will certainly be no relaxation of the eager scrutiny of the martian disk, and those fiery darts of the sky, the shooting stars, will bring with them as they fall an unavoidable apprehension to all the sons of men. the broadening of men's views that has resulted can scarcely be exaggerated. before the cylinder fell there was a general persuasion that through all the deep of space no life existed beyond the petty surface of our minute sphere. now we see further. if the martians can reach venus, there is no reason to suppose that the thing is impossible for men, and when the slow cooling of the sun makes this earth uninhabitable, as at last it must do, it may be that the thread of life that has begun here will have streamed out and caught our sister planet within its toils.
