I selected option E. The official answer is option A. I am not sure of E but A has an error. It says "Sun with the unprotected eye". How can sun be with an unprotected eye.
You look at the Sun and your eye is unprotected. Your eye in this context is the tool with which you observe the transition. :)

Your observation is correct.

Option E is wordy and passive: staring, to make sense, must comes immediatly after comma.

This question is NOT a 700 level and I am not tired to point out: 800 score is not a good resource for verbal

Thanks a lot. Had a similar experience multiple times with 800score. Will switch to some other source now.
