* Drag the correct answer into all target fields

Since people began speaking, we've narrated stories to each other - stories about why the sun the sky and why it at night. In fact, you'll find that whatever you're studying, storytelling is an valuable tool for communication because our brains are biologically constructed to receive information contained in a story. When information is in the form of a story, people pay much closer attention to it.

A.I. Explanation:

Correct answer: traverses
Explanation: The verb 'traverses' is in the present tense, which matches the context of the sentence discussing the sun's ongoing action in the sky. It fits grammatically as it describes what the sun does continuously.
Meaning: 'Traverses' means to move across or through something, in this case, the sky.
Wrong options:
rises: 'Rises' is also a present tense verb but does not accurately describe the sun's movement across the sky as 'traverses' does.
vanishes: 'Vanishes' is a present tense verb that describes the sun's disappearance at night, which does not fit this blank.

discipline: 'Discipline' is a noun and does not fit as a verb in this context.

Correct answer: vanishes
Explanation: The verb 'vanishes' is in the present tense and describes the action of the sun disappearing at night, fitting the context of the sentence perfectly.
