Read the following passage and underline the words that can convey the meanings of the four phrases the given below:
What is certain about time is that it can’t be separated from space. Time and space are tightly woven together, not only in the extreme realms where the effects of relativity become important but also in the familiar landscape of everyday life. A year, for example, is a distance: the distance that the earth moves in its orbit ar ound the sun. If the distance were longer or shorter, the time would be longer or shorter, too. A day, of course, corresponds to the distance more or less around the earth’s circumference — and an hour is just a fraction (1/24) of that distance. The swing of a pendulum, the vibration of a quartz crystal or atom, anything that ‘tells time’ inevitably also move s through space. As Lincoln Barnett points out, "All measurements of time are really measurements in space, and conversely measurements in space depend o n measurements of time." 1. 2. 3.
