I usually am flying economy class, but last year I flied first-class on a trip from Vermont to Texas. This is how it happened. When I arriving at the airport, the attendant told me the airline had overbooked, which meant they were selling too many tickets for that flight. I were not in a hurry, so I offered to go on the next flight. Then I found out there were an extra seat after all—it was first class! As I sat in my first-class seat, I notice the ride was much quieter and smoother than in other parts of the plane. When I buzzed the flight attendants, they are arriving right away. Also, there was enough fleece blankets for everyone, so I was able to cover myself when the cabin got too cool. Because the seats were so large, I had lots of room to stretch my legs. Best of all, the first-class meal was really good. All of these pleasant surprises made the flight seem shorter than any other flight I have took before.

Read the excerpt from A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole by Carolyn Cinami DeCristofano.

Einstein's idea of gravity had big consequences. It helped explain some observations that Newton's idea didn't account for. It also opened our minds to amazing new possibilities. For example, taking his cue from Einstein's idea that space bends, scientist Karl Schwarzschild began to think about what would happen if a place in space were extremely distorted. His answer: light would follow the hyper-bent space, never to turn away from it. This was the first prediction of a black hole. At first, some scientists (including Einstein!) rejected Schwarzschild's ideas. Others were intrigued and began searching the skies for real black holes. Just decades later, they found the first of them. It just goes to show: sometimes, as Einstein himself once said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Which is an objective statement about the excerpt?

Einstein was a more enlightened thinker than Isaac Newton.
Einstein’s ideas about gravity affected the way scientists viewed space.
Karl Schwarzschild could never have succeeded without Einstein’s assistance.
Karl Schwarzschild’s predictions were the most impressive scientific thinking in history.
