Focus in on paragraphs 8 and 9 to answer this question. Cassie and her father see the planet very differently. Select the two choices within this excerpt that use figurative language to show that difference in tone. Captain Telemach turned to Cassie. “You know, it may be wise to send down a probe first,” he said. Cassie gripped the ship deck’s railing tightly to stay upright. “Dad, I think I can see some wreckage down there,” she replied, a tremor in her voice. Telemach smiled patiently. “Those are just shadows from that crater, Cassie.” Then he turned to his lieutenant and said, “I think we’ve found the right place to send down a probe. Let’s find out what we’re dealing with here. But I am hopeful that we may have a veritable ocean of possibilities, if I am right about that dark spot.” The probe, once released, seemed to take a lifetime, as it sank down toward the bottomless, inky pool near the pole of the gray planet. Cassie trembled with the effort it took to wish against what she knew in her heart was true. Her father moved restlessly from chair to chair with impatience. His crew members were all silent as they waited for the probe to land.
