An example will (hopefully) involve things you’re more familiar with, which therefore gives you a reference point from which to build knowledge.

The phrase “objects with mass bend space-time” is so abstract that it’s impossible to understand without context. A rubber sheet with a bowling ball on it “simulating” this phenomenon gives you a step up towards understanding (although in this particular example you’re still far from it..).
