Read the passage below.

those who argue for the continuation of space exploration say that the benefits outweigh the great financial costs. one such argument is that many scientific advancements, such as the artificial heart, were partially a result of space exploration. another benefit mentioned by those in favor is that the insulation used to keep homes warm is now more efficient because of what was learned from insulating space shuttles that were sent into space. many advancements in technology have been linked to space travel.

based on the phrase "another benefit mentioned,” how is home insulation connected to space exploration?

a innovations in space exploration showed that it was necessary to insulate homes.

b innovations in space exploration contributed to the efficiency of insulating people's homes.

c space shuttle technology was funded at the expense of developing insulation for homes.

d space shuttles required completely different insulation than what is used in many homes.

This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts? thus truth was multiplied on truth, [the world like one great garden show'd,] and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd, rare sunrise flow'd. [and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise] her beautiful bold brow, when rites and forms before his burning eyes melted like snow. [there was no blood upon her maiden robes] sunn'd by those orient skies; but round about the circles of the globes of her keen eyes and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame wisdom, a name to shake [all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.] and when she spake, [her words did gather thunder as they ran,] and as the lightning to the thunder which follows it, riving the spirit of man, making earth wonder, so was their meaning to her words. no sword of wrath her right arm whirl'd, [ but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word] she shook the world.
