Albie is old, with a slow, heavy walk. He wears his hair short and his trousers low. He works for some people who own small country houses.
The other day, he was in a little dustbin shelter (遮蔽物) for the neighbors up the road. He painted the shed (棚) green and let it dry. I went to look at it, putting my finger to the smooth paint. But the next day Albie came back with a machine and roughed up (粗磨, 使不 平) the paint. He was adding another coating. He said "That is not the way Albie works. What I make by hand does not look unprofessional (外 行的)."
Nothing in Albie's world holds secrets from him so far as houses are concerned, because at some time he either builds it, repairs it or decorates it. The fuse (保险丝) box, the stone patio (用石块砌的院子), the shed, the small house, these are all Albie's work.
The people Albie works for do big businesses. Albie does not know how to buy and sell securities (证券). But when these men want to have sheds built or patios laid, they come to Albie.

A scientist once said that studying the stars from the earth is something like looking up at the sky from the bottom of a swimming pool. Even on the clearest night the earth’s dense atmosphere will dim stars in the sky as it screens out (遮挡) 30 percent of their light. Air turbulence (湍流) causes stars to winkle. Through a telescope, the stars seem to jump around dizzily.
Because the moon has no atmosphere, astronomers are looking forward to setting up an observatory there. On the moon, there will be no clouds to obscure the view. The sky will appear dark at all times, so astronomers can work twenty-four hours a day. Because there is not air turbulence, the stars will steady through a telescope.
Because the moon is relatively near the earth, moon-based astronomers will see the stars in familiar patterns known on earth. They will not need new star maps of the sky. Stars seen from the moon will appear to move very slowly. Because the earth rotates (自转) on its axis once every twenty-four hours, earth-based astronomers see the stars hurry across the sky each night. The moon rotates on its axis only once a month. To astronomers on the moon, the stars will appear to stand almost still. Moon-based astronomers will have much more time to focus their telescopes and take time ---exposure photographs.
On the earth, man-made radio noises jam the airwaves and interfere with the reception of radio signals from certain stars. A radio telescope located on the far side of the moon will be permanently protected from such interference.
It won’t be easy to put telescopes on the moon. However, astronomers are certain the job can be done. They are convinced that the moon is an ideal place to set up an observatory.
Title : The Reasons for establishing an observatory on the moon
| Main Comparison | Context |
| Different 71 | There is very 72 atmosphere on the moon. |
| On the earth, air turbulence causes stars to twinkle like 73 . | |
| Different 74 | On the moon, the sky will seem to be in 75 . |
| Because of clouds, there is a 76 view from the earth. | |
| Different 77 | Earth-based astronomers see stars move very 78 |
| Stars are seen on the moon to move at a very low 79 | |
| In contrast | The moon is 80 to be an ideal place to set up an observatory. |
