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

However, in day-to-day experience, the strangeness of Einstein's ideas doesn't help us, and Newton's notions do just fine. In everyday life, when gravity isn't especially intense, Newton's and Einstein's ways of thinking lead to similar results. The two explanations work like different languages that express the same thing. Is an apple red (English) or rojo (Spanish)? It's okay to use either description.

So we still use Newton's laws—even scientists do, much of the time. Sure, it's more exact to be Einsteinian and think of gravity as matter's effect on space. But it's all right to take a Newtonian shortcut and imagine gravity as a pull.

The details in the excerpt best support which conclusion?

Sometimes scientific questions are left unanswered.
Some things can have more than one explanation.
Knowing two languages helps to understand science.
Choosing between two different ideas can be difficult
