Ⅲ.阅读理解(20分)
Our nearest neighbour is the moon. In the sky, the moon and the sun seem to be of the same size because the moon is much nearer.
The moon makes the tides—the changes in the level of the sea. The moon and the sun together pull the sea. In some parts of the world, the difference between “high tide”(when the sea is very near to the land) and “low tide”(when the sea is far away from the land) is very big. This is very important for ships.
The moon is very different from the earth. Gravity on the moon is six times weaker than that on the earth. There isn't any air. During the day, it is very, very hot but at night it is very, very cold. Nothing can live on the moon.
If the moon goes between the earth and the sun, we have an eclipse of the sun(日食). The moon stops the light from the sun and we have night in the day.
If the earth goes between the moon and the sun, we have an eclipse of the moon(月食). The moon goes into the shadow(影子) of the earth and it disappears for a few minutes.
21．When the sea is far away from the land, we call it “________”．
A．high tide B．low tide C．shadow D．gravity
22．Gravity on the earth is ________ times stronger than that on the moon.
A．five B．six C．seven D．eight
23．When the moon goes between the earth and the sun, we have night in the day, and we call it the eclipse of ________．
A．the moon B．the sun C．the stars D．the earth
24．Which of the following happens when we have an eclipse of the moon?
A．The earth goes between the moon and the sun.
B．The moon goes into the shadow of the sun.
C．The moon goes into the shadow of its own.
D．The sun disappears for a few minutes.
25．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
a. The moon and the sun are of the same size.
b. Gravity on the earth is 6 times stronger than that on the moon.
c. The changes in the level of the sea are called tides.
d. The moon itself pulls the sea and makes the tides.
e. When the sea is near to the land, a high tide may happen.
f. It is much hotter in the day but much colder at night on the moon.

Ⅳ.任务型阅读(10分)
The sun is always shining. But it can only shine on one side of the earth at one time. When the sun is shining on one side of the earth, it is night on the other side. At night, you can see the stars. The stars are in the sky all day. But the light from the sun is so bright that you can't see them. When night comes, there is no light, and the stars are bright enough to see. The stars look very small. But some of them are even bigger than the sun. They look small because they are so far away from you. Big things look much smaller when they are far away. The sun is closer to the earth than other stars, so it looks bigger.

About Comets
When you look up at the sky at night, and see something moving and shining, it might be a comet. A comet sometimes looks like a star. Like a planet, a comet has no light of its own. It receives sunlight and shines. Like the earth, a comet goes around the sun. If a comet isn't a star, what is it then? Some scientists think it is perhaps a big piece of rock. Many people perhaps have seen a comet. However, no one knows how many comets there are. There may be millions of comets, but only a few are close enough for us to see.
