【题目】阅读下面短文，根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

In the universe, there is the Sun. The Moon, the Earth and so on. We know the Earth goes around the Sun, and the Moon goes around the Earth. We have day and night because the

Earth keeps turning all the time. When our part of the Earth turns to the Sun, it is day, When our part of the Earth turns away from the Sun, it is night.

Just because the Moon is closer to the Earth than the Sun, it looks much bigger than the Sun. Big things will look smaller when they are further, and small ones look bigger when they are nearer.

The Sun is big enough to give out very strong light. The Moon can't give out any light, but it looks quite bright too. Why? In fact, the light from the Moon comes from the Sun. The Moon looks much bigger and brighter than the stars. But actually (事实上) the stars are much bigger and brighter than the Moon. Also, they look smaller than the Moon because they are further away from the Earth。

There are many other planets (行星) in the universe. But of all the planets, people can only live on the Earth.

【解析】

此篇文章介绍的是太空中，宇宙意味着地球，太阳，月亮和星星及其它们之间的空间以及之间的关联。

【1】细节理解题。根据第三段Just because the Moon is closer to the Earth than the Sun, it looks much bigger than the Sun. 可知因为月亮离地球比太阳更近一些，因此月亮看起来比太阳更大一些。所以相对的地球看起来比月球小。故选D。

【2】细节理解题。根据When our part of the earth turns to the sun，it is day. When our part of the earth turns away from the sun，it is night.可知当地球的一部分转向太阳时，就是白天。当地球的一部分远离太阳时，就是夜晚。另一面就是白天。故选B。

【3】词义猜测题。根据原文Big things will look smaller when they are further, and small ones look bigger when they are nearer.可知句中的smaller和bigger是反义词，相应的further与nearer是反义词。nearer意为“较近的，更近的”,那么further的意思就是：较远的，更远的。故选A。

【4】细节判断题。根据第一段the Moon goes around the Earth 和 第四段The Moon can't give out any light, but it looks quite bright too.可知A正确。根据第一段the Moon goes around the Earth.可知月亮是绕着地球的，所以B错误；根据第一段We know the Earth goes around the Sun可知地球是绕着太阳转的，而不是月亮。所以C错误；根据地理知识可知，行星都是绕着太阳转的，所以D错误。故选A.

【5】推理判断题。本文是科普文，由此可推知它会出现在科学报纸上。故选A。
