Response:
Resalta la naturaleza cíclica del año.
Justificación:
Lo que el autor intenta comunicar en el texto no es que cada año sea exactamente igual, sino que, aunque las estaciones hacen que el año sea ligeramente diferente según el periodo, los eventos que suceden son muy similares.
Para ilustrar este punto, el autor equipara lo que ocurre cada estación con las personas, la vegetación y el ciclo día/noche. A pesar de los cambios, en realidad no son tan diferentes y su naturaleza es cíclica.
The correct choice is B. The others make no sense.
In the reading titled “How the Internet and Other Technologies Came About,” it is explained that advancements in technology are often unintended consequences of military initiatives aimed at achieving victory in wars. A communication network, which fragmented across regions, was established to ensure that communication persisted despite the devastation of a nuclear event. Flight simulators emerged to train pilots to operate under nuclear-related conditions. Additionally, guidance satellites were created to ensure missiles reached their targets. Thus, all of these innovations were byproducts of wartime efforts, transforming into what we now know as the internet, virtual reality, and GPS.
