What is the first action you should take to repair a large hole in a load-bearing masonry wall?

If the hole is large, the wall will need propping to take some of the load from the portion of wall above the hole. This propping needs to be done with materials that can take the load. There are specialist props used in construction. Get a professional to look at it. A masonry wall, or the part of the building that it is supporting can be lethal if it fails.

Are poured concrete walls better than concrete block walls?

It depends on the application. For homes, masonry is fine as long as it is insulated well against the weather. Masonry rarely needs maintenance. Concrete walls are stronger and last longer than masonry but are more costly to construct. For basement walls, I suggest that you always use concrete walls. Above ground level, masonry is cheaper and strong enough for residential and commercial, multi-story applications. For retaining walls, 8" thick masonry works well up to about 8 feet of retained earth. Above that, the lower courses of block will get thicker to 12". You still need concrete footings for block walls.

Does mars orbit the sun in a circle shape?

No. A circle is an unstable shape for an object orbiting another. An orbit is between slightly and very elliptical (egg-shaped). If an object is placed in a circular orbit, the orbit will quickly deteriorate to an elliptical orbit. Added: Mar's elliptical eccentricity is rather above average for a planetary orbit. Not quite as large as Mercury, but large enough.
