The earth is not the only body that travels around the sun. With it are eight other planets, fellow members of the sun' s family. Two of them are nearer while the other six are farther from the sun than the earth is. The farther they are, the longer trip they make around the sun. People noticed long ago that these traveling bodies moved around in the sky in certain paths.
We know that every little hit of matter in the universe pulls upon every other hit of matter. The pull between two bodies is proportional (成比例的) to the product (乘积) of their masses. Because the sun is so large, the pulls between the sun and planets are thus great. If it were not for these pulls, the planets would fly off into space. In the same way there is a pull between the earth and the moon, which keeps the moon traveling in its orbit (轨道) around our planet, the earth. The pull holds you to its surface, and pulls back the ball which you throw into the air. Of course the ball also pulls on the larger earth but the earth is so much larger that the pull is not noticed.
(1) The earth travels a larger circle around the sun than ________ .
[ ]
A. six of the other planets
B. two planets in the same family
C. most planets in the universe
D. the moon
(2) The planets move around the sun because of ________ .
[ ]
A. the gravity (引力) of the sun only
B. the pull of the planets on one another

D. the proportional gravity
(3)If objects (物体) didn't have gravity, ________ .
[ ]
A. the earth would not travel in the space
B. the moon would move away from the earth
C. the sun would not exist
D. the planets of the sun family form another family
(4) Which of the following pictures shows correctly the pull between the objects?
[ ]
(5) The sun's family has ________ members in this text.
A. two
C. nine
D. eight
B. six
[ ]
解析:
(1) B 本文中讲到的是行星距太阳的距离,第一段中有Two of them are nearer while the other six are farther from the sun than the earth is (2) C 从第二段的开头可以知道本题的答案 (3) B 因If it were not for these pulls,the planets would fly off into space (4) D 从文段可以知道,物体之间的引力是相互的,故D为正确答案 (5) C 因with it are eight other planets,加上the earth,共9个 |
