The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are the examples that can be seen by their own light. But most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are just reflecting(反射) light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, doesnt give off any light of its own. It is not luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of the sunlight reflects on the earth. So moonlight is only secondhand sunlight. When you look at a book, it sends some of the light which fails on it to your eyes, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where youre so that there would be no light from the book to reflect. Then you couldnt see the book even with your eyes wide open. Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book youre reading to your eyes is as short as if there were no time at time. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380, 000 kilometres away, in only a little more than a second.（1）You can see the book because_.A . your eyes are close to itB . it reflects some of the lightC . it has light of its ownD . it is big enough to be seen（2）The Chinese meaning of the word“luminous”is close to_.A . 闪光的B . 看不见的C . 发光的D . 明亮的（3）_has light of its own.A . The moonB . The earthC . The sunD . The satellite of Dong Fong Hong（4）Light travels about_kilometers per second.A . 300，000B . 100，000C . 400，000D . 190，000（5）Which of the following is TRUE?A . All the things you can see give off light.B . Light from the book is much faster than that from the moon.C . The moment you open your eyes，the light from the book travels to your eyes.D . Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.16. （10分） An elephant wants to make some friends. He see a monkey in a tree and asks, “Can you be my friend?”“You are too big.
