Select the correct text in the passage. only one. which bolded and numbered sentence in this excerpt from the time machine suggests that the time traveller will later realize that his assumptions about the future society are incorrect? 1. this adjustment, i say, must have been done, and done well; done indeed for all time, in the space of time across which my machine had leaped. the air was free from gnats, the earth from weeds or fungi; everywhere were fruits and sweet and delightful flowers; brilliant butterflies flew hither and thither. the ideal of preventive medicine was attained. diseases had been stamped out. i saw no evidence of any contagious diseases during all my stay. 2. and i shall have to tell you later that even the processes of putrefaction and decay had been profoundly affected by these changes. social triumphs, too, had been effected. 3. i saw mankind housed in splendid shelters, gloriously clothed, and as yet i had found them engaged in no toil. there were no signs of struggle, neither social nor economical struggle. the shop, the advertisement, traffic, all that commerce which constitutes the body of our world, was gone. 4. it was natural on that golden evening that i should jump at the idea of a social paradise. the difficulty of increasing population had been met, i guessed, and population had ceased to increase.
