In 1908, an object from outer space devastated2,000km2of forest in Siberia. The object was between10m and 100m in diameter and traveled at a maximumspeed of 15km/sec. It exploded at an altitude of 8km andreleased energy equivalent to 20million tons of TNT. Twoscientists discuss whether this object was a comet or anasteroid.
Scientist 1
The object was a comet, a body made of ices (such asfrozen water or methane) and dust. Most of this cometarymaterial is volatile(easily vaporized) and low in density.Friction in Earth’s atmosphere heated the comet to a tem-perature at which it exploded, high above the ground. Themajority of the ices and dust were vaporized in the explo-sion, which explains why no crater was formed at the siteand why no large, identifiable fragments of the object werefound. An asteroid would not have been completelydestroyed. Intact asteroid fragments that reached theground would have created one or more craters uponimpact and left behind recoverable pieces. Evidence showsthat the object decelerated rapidly before it exploded.Because of their low density, comets are capable of suchrapid deceleration, whereas high-density objects, such asasteroids, are not.
Scientist 2
The object was a stony asteroid. As it entered Earth’satmosphere, its high speed created a large air pressure dif-ference between the area just in front of the asteroid andthe area just behind the asteroid. The large pressure differ-ence eventually exceeded the structural strength of theasteroid. The asteroid flattened, decelerated rapidly due tothe dramatic increase in its surface area, and fragmentedbefore reaching the ground. This fragmentation would haveappeared like an explosion. Calculations show that a cometbetween 10m and 100m in diameter would explode at analtitude much higher than 8km, but a stony asteroid of thatsize would fragment at or near an altitude of 8km.Recovery of large asteroid fragments is difficult due to thearea’s boggy soil; however, small, glassy fragments wererecovered and are believed to be melted and resolidifiedpieces of the asteroid.
Which of the following phrases best describes the majorpoint of difference between the 2 scientists’ hypotheses？
A.The location of the event
B.The speed the object was traveling
C.The density of Earth’s atmosphere
D.The type of object that entered Earth’s atmosphere

A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. “Is this your car, Mister？” he asked.
Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was astounded. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing？ Boy, I wish….” He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.
“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile？”
“Oh yes, I’d love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes aglow, said, “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house？”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wante d. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are？” the boy asked.
He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.
“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m gonna give you one just like it…, then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he had said: “It is more blessed to give….”
