In the huge universe, there is the Galaxy and many other galaxies. In the Galaxy, there is the Solar System and lots of other stars. In the Solar System, there is the sun, the earth and seven other planets. As we know, the eight planets go around their star the sun. In our Earthmoon System, the moon goes around the earth. And because our earth keeps turning around the sun all the time, we have day and night. 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. The sun is big enough to give out very strong light. The moon itself cant give any light at all, but it looks quite bright, too. In fact, the light from the moon comes from the sun. Although, the moon looks much bigger and brighter than the sun and other stars, in fact, all the stars are much bigger and brighter than the moon. They look smaller than the moon also because they are farther away from us. Its clear that big things will look smaller when they are farther, and small things look bigger when they are nearer.So far, we have traveled to many other planets in the universe. But scientists havent discovered any living things on any other planets. Scientists havent discovered any other planets with a good environment. They arent sure if there is any water and air for living things to live on other planets. People always ask the question: Is there anyone out space? Our scientists havent got a clear answer either. Some people think it will be a secret for a long time. But we believe we can solve the problem some day.Exploring our Solar System and the universe is a great national project to some countries. Our Chinese scientists are also trying to send spaceships with astronauts to those planets and even the universe. At 9:00 a.m. on October 15th, 2003, a Chinese astronaut called Yang Liwei was sent up to space. He stayed there for hours and got back to the earth at 6:00 a.m. the next day. It was the first time for Chinese to have a space travel.（1）When our part of the earth turns to , its day.

Because the moon is father from the earth than the stars.C . Because the stars is nearer our earth than the moon.D . Because we are closer to the moon than the stars.（3）In Para.4, what does the underlined word it refer* to ?

Then, one by one, the teacher called our names.As each paper was given back to the correct student, the front of the answer paper would always be turned to face the ground and the paper itself would be slightly folded (折叠) to prevent anyone from seeing.In fact, folding each test paper is a way to make sure that each student sees only his or her own scores. The scores are seen as private information not to be announced or shown to others. As a way to keep the students score records secret, each student is given an online account (帐号) with which to check his or her grades posted on the official school website.Protecting students private information always comes first in US schools that want to free students from unnecessary pressure. Academic (学业上的) reports are guarded closely to prevent poor academic grades from damaging a students dignity and reputation (有损学生的尊严和声誉), which are for himself or herself only.However, some insist that although students feelings and self-dignity are easily hurt, they cannot be forever protected. They say that school also teach their students to make themselves stronger in mind, and the classroom should show the reality of competition in society. Scores that everyone can see might better encourage students to work harder to be better than others.Protecting of students privacy (隐私) in US schoolsThe writers _After the bell rang, its _of students to sit and wait for theirscores for a test in Biology.The teacher called students names and handed out the papers.He received test papers facing down and folded several times.Other way takenEach student is even _with an online account with which to check his or her grades
