Are you …… that tigers can climb the trees?
The "Old Man of the Mountain" was not really an old man, but a rock formation that resembled the face of an old man in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The natural formation was at least 40 feet high and 25 feet wide. It became such a symbol of the state of New Hampshire, that "he" was featured on the back of the state`s quarter in the year 2000. Old Man of the Mountain was also honored on a United States Postage Stamp in 1955. The Old Man, however, did not last forever. On May 3, 2003, he crumbled to the ground, despite efforts made by the state of New Hampshire to keep him atop the mountain for the last 75 years! People were so sad that some placed flowers at the base of his mountain.
What does the underlined word "resembled" mean in the passage?
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second smallest planet in the Solar System, after Mercury. It is often referred to as the “Red Planet” because the iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a reddish appearance. Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features that look like the craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of the Earth.
The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of the Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second highest known mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest valleys in the Solar System. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature. Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos, which are small and irregularly shaped. These may be captured asteroids, similar to 5261 Eureka, a Mars trojan.
