أسفل النموذج
Explanation
It makes sense to say that someone who is typically “genial,” or friendly, would turn “surly,” or irritable, when provoked.

Explanation
Choice (C) is correct. It avoids the lack of parallelism of the original by replacing the present participle "alternating" with the past tense verb "alternated," which is logically consistent with the past tense verb "incorporated."

    Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was a believer of Copernicus's heliocentric theory. His discovery of the telescope (1609) allowed him to confirm the theory and his own beliefs. Galileo was first criticized by Friar Lorini. The Friar said that Copernicus's theory violated the scripture. Galileo responded with the Letter to Castelli, hoping it will give back some hope and trust in science. However, it did the opposite, and Lorini, sent a copy of the letter to the Inquisition (1615). On February 1616, Galileo was warned by Cardinal Bellarmine to keep quiet of his ideas or else stronger measures would be taken.…

    Anti-Catholics often cite the Galileo case as an example of the Church refusing to abandon outdated or incorrect teachings. People believe that Galileo proved that the Copernican belief was true, unfortunately this was not the case. He could not answer the strongest argument against it, which was made by Aristotle. The question that he could not answer was if the Copernican belief were true, then there would be observable shifts in the star’s positions as the Earth moved in its orbit around the Sun. Unfortunately in Galileo’s time the technology was not advanced enough at the time. The evidence at the time shows that the stars were fixed in their positions relative to the Earth. Despite Galileo not being able to prove the Copernican, he had…

    In life most people conform to the status quo. They go to high school, wear normal things, get jobs, and have a family. They travel through life without making a huge impact. The cycle of conforming to the status quo continues until someone doesn't like the way they are being treated and they make a change by rebelling against the status quo. Ruby Bridges, even though she didn’t realize it at first, is an example of someone who rebelled against the status quo to get the rights she deserved.…

    Galileo Paper

    Galileo would come to invent a thermoscope, which was the predecessor to the thermometer. He also published The Little Balance, which is what brought him to the attention of the scholarly world. Galileo furthered mankind's understanding of astronomy, applied science, as well as making significant improvements to the telescope. He pointed his telescope toward the night sky and discovered 4 moons around Jupiter that are now called the Galilean Moons. He would also use his understanding of ocean tides to make an argument for the fact that the earth moves around the sun, not the opposite, which was what was commonly accepted. The Catholic Church ordered that publishing's of Galileo could not contain references to ocean tides. Galileo was a large supporter of heliocentrism, which caused large amounts of controversy in the Catholic Church because the belief at the time was that the earth was the center of the universe. Galileo went to Rome to defend the scientific position on the issue, but "In 1616, an Inquisitional commission unanimously declared heliocentrism to be "foolish and absurd in philosophy, and formally heretical since it explicitly contradicts in many places the sense of Holy Scripture."(Wiki). As a result of Galileo's trial in 1633, he was ordered to spend…

    Galileo, Italian physicist, mathematician and astronomer, showed his humanity by rejecting Church teaching on the centrality of the Earth in the universe. Instead he championed Heliocentrism, the notion that placed the sun, and not the earth, at the center of the orbital paths of many observable bodies in outer space, a truth since validated by astronomers and mathematicians of his and later times. Galileo, by his disobedience, suffered ignominy for his beliefs; found guilty of heresy by the Roman Inquisition, he was sentenced to serve a prison term and placed under house arrest for the rest of his life. But if not for Galileo and others like him, Neil Armstrong would not have been able to land on the moon, nor mechanical human proxies named Sojourner, Opportunity and Curiosity to survey the surface of Mars.…
