解析试题分析:此题重点考查形容词的比较级。根据语境可知此句的含义是因引力的原因在火星上的东西比在地球上的要轻得多。在形容词的比较级的前面常用much，a little，a bit，far等词来修饰以加强语气，比较的事物things是复数，故后面要用those来代替故选B。
考点：形容词的比较级
点评：做此题首先要分析句子结构知道这是个比较结构，其次还要知道那些词可以用来修饰比较级。That和those可以替代前文的物，前者是单数或不可数名词，后者是可数名词的复数形式。

When I was ten, my mother worked all day so I had to take care of my younger brother. At that time my little brother was about four years old and he missed mum all the time.
One day, after I had given him his dinner, he started crying for mum.He was so young and really needed mum. So I dressed him, put on his shoes, carried him on my back and walked out. Soon he fell asleep. About half an hour later, I found that he had lost a shoe while sleeping. I took him off my back and put him down. I knew we needed to find that shoe, for our mother couldn’t afford new shoes. We had to go back to find it, so I told my brother to wait right there. A man heard it and stopped me just before I walked off. He asked me, “You are leaving your brother here to find the shoe? What would you do if he is not here when you return?” I did not know how to answer that question. He continued, “It’s OK if you can’t find the shoe, but it is not OK to lose your brother.” Then he sent us to mum’s workplace by taxi.
My whole life I have depended on the kindness of many strangers, I feel regretful that I cannot find them and say thank you. I do not even remember what the man’s face looked like, but he taught me a lesson—people are more important than things.
