sky as „falling stars‟. However, most scientists (5) ) one large asteroid, about six to twelve kilometers across, hit the earth and killed all the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago. Apophis is also big. Scientists (6) it (7) 2004 and they say that it is about

300 meters across. That‟s about the size of a large sports stadium. An asteroid this size, according to scientists, is (8) ) large enough to destroy our world, but it is large enough to destroy several cities. It will probably miss the earth, they say, but not by very much – it will miss (9) ) by about only 35,000 kilometers – that‟s much closer than our moon which is about 240,000 kilometers away. Another way of thinking about it is that it will

(10) ) us by only a few minutes.

1. Read the text. Use the information in the story to answer the questions below by choosing the best answer A, B, C or D.

COMETS

Andy heard from his friends that a comet was coming. He knew that a comet was a space rock. Space rocks seemed exciting. He wanted to watch it at night. All he had to do was go outside and watch. That was easy enough.

That night, he put on a jacket and went outside. He looked around. He saw the moon, but he did not see anything else. There were only a couple clouds, so that was not the problem. He could see some stars, but nothing new or special. Where was the comet?

He called his friend on the phone. They talked about it. His friend told him where to look, but he still didn‟t see it. What was going on? Was he not special enough to see it? Were his eyes going bad? What was he doing wrong?

Andy went to get his dad. Together, they looked up in the sky where it was supposed to be. Finally, after several minutes of looking, he saw a fuzzy thing, brighter and bigger than a star, but nowhere near what he expected.

“I thought it‟d be like an extra moon or something.” Andy complained.

“It‟s not big enough for that, and it still might be very far away.” Dad explained. “I still wish I could see it better.”

Dad nodded and went inside. When he came back out, he had a telescope. Together, they focused in and saw the comet a little better. It wasn‟t much, but it helped.

“What else can we see?” Andy wondered.

Dad smiled and aimed the telescope over at the moon instead. That was cool. Seeing the craters and the details of the moon up closer was nice.

Astronomy was interesting. Andy made sure to read more about it at school!

1. What was Andy excited to see in the sky?
   1. rainbows B. clouds C. the moon D. a comet
2. What problem did Andy have when he tries to look at the comet?
   1. There were too many and he couldn‟t find the right one.
   2. He couldn‟t see it.
   3. It was too bright to see anything.
   4. The sky was very cloudy.
3. When he couldn‟t find the comet, what did Andy do first?
   1. Called a friend B. Asked dad for help

C. Got a telescope D. Checked the Internet

1. When he still couldn‟t find the comet, what did Andy do next?
   1. Called a friend B. Asked dad for help

C. Got a telescope D. Checked the Internet

1. When he was disappointed by the comet, what did Andy‟s father show Andy?
   1. constellations B. a planet C. the moon D. a comet
2. Read the text and do the task below.

SATURN

Saturn is the second-largest planet and is a gas giant like Jupiter. Under clouds of methane, hydrogen, and helium, the sky slowly turns into a giant ocean of liquid chemicals. Saturn is the least dense planet in our solar system; it is made mostly of hydrogen and helium. Because it is so lightweight and spins so quickly, Saturn is not perfectly round like the other planets. Saturn is surrounded by thousands of small rings made of rocks and ice. It also has 140 natural satellites, like moons and pieces of debris.

• • Answer the following questions:

1. How is Saturn similar to Jupiter?
2. What are the clouds made of?
3. Describe the surface of Saturn.
4. Why is Saturn not perfectly round?
5. Describe some of the things surrounding Saturn.
6. Read the text and answer the following questions.

The Earth was formed about 4.7 billion years ago. The Earth‟s shape is very close to that of a sphere, not perfectly spherical. The Earth‟s equatorial diameter is about 12,756 km, which is slightly larger than the polar diameter; about 12,714 km Surface Area of the Earth is 510,065,600 km² of which 148,939,100 km² (29.2%) is land and 361,126,400 km² (70.8 %) is water.

The Earth rotates on its axis, an imaginary straight line through its centre. The two points where the axis of rotation intersects the Earth‟s surface are called as the poles, one of them is called the North Pole and the other is known as the South Pole. One rotation with respect to Sun is completed in 24 hours, called a solar day.

1. When was the Earth created?
2. How is the Earth?
3. What main elements does the Earth include?

When the topic “SPACE EXPLORATION” is put (3) the table, a question has often been asked: “Why should we spend money on NASA while there are so (4)

• 1. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.

A MISSION TO MARS

Have you ever had a dream about traveling to another planet in our solar system? If you have, there is an actual programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Mars in 2023. Known as the Mars One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one-way mission to colonize Mars. Those chosen people will have to be ready to say good-bye to the earth forever, as there will not be a return trip.

For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be living the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that allow them to get along. Second, the living quarters that they will have won‟t be very spacious, so they will have to deal with that condition as well. If they feel homesick, they will only be able to communicate with people back on the earth via e-mail and videos and audio sent back and forth. However, there won‟t be any real-time communication. Even at the speed of light, communication between the earth and Mars takes about 20 minutes.

Whether the Mars One Mission will actually happen is the big question that a lot of people are asking. There is an enormous skepticism in the science community, and Wired magazine gave the mission a miserable score of two out of ten on its probability scale. However, for those who dream to go to Mars, at least they can say there is a possibility that it could happen.

• • 1. Who might like to go on this mission?
       1. People who get along with others
       2. People who get homesick easily
       3. People with angry personalities
       4. People who don't like to communicate
    2. What will NOT happen to the people who go on the Mars One Mission?
       1. They will communicate with people on the earth.
       2. They will have to live with other people.
       3. They will live in quarters that don‟t have a lot of space inside.
       4. They will return to do the earth.
    3. What will NOT be spacious?
       1. The spaceship B. The magazines

C. The mission D. The living quarters

• • 1. Which of the following is considered miserable?
       1. A crew on board of the Mars One Mission.
