Long long ago, farmers watched some stars to know when to plant their crops. Travellers did so to find their way in the dark. Today stars are still important to some people.Scientists find that most stars are very big. In fact, some stars are so far away that it would take millions of years to get to them even by spacecraft.
25.
C
The gases are so hot that they send out light. If you watch a star carefully, you may notice that it twinkles(闪烁) sometimes. As you may understand, light from a star must shine through the air before you can see the star.26.
B
Stars also have different colours. The colour of a star depends on how hot it is. 27. A

解析
【分析】
这道题分为选句补全短文和开放性问答两部分。解题时首先通读全文，明确文章围绕“星星的相关知识和人类对星星的利用探索”展开。做补全题时逐空分析前后文的逻辑关联：1. 先看24空的前文是提问晴朗夜晚抬头看天会看到什么，直接找能回应这个问题的选项；2. 25空后文出现了特指的“The gases”，说明空格内容必须首次引出“热气体”的相关表述；3. 26空前文提到星光需要穿过空气才能被看见，后文讲星星会闪烁，找能解释闪烁原因、和空气相关的选项；4. 27空前文点明星星颜色由温度决定，找承接温度和颜色对应关系的选项，排除多余选项即可。最后开放性问答结合文章最后一段的探索宇宙的主题，写出符合要求的通顺表述即可。
【解析】
24. 前文设问“晴朗的夜晚你抬头看天空时看到什么”，E选项“你可能会看到很多星星”直接回应问题，自然引出后文古人利用星星的相关内容，逻辑匹配。
25. 后文出现特指的“The gases”，要求空格处必须首次提及星星和热气体的关联，C选项“如今我们了解到的关于星星的另一个知识点是，部分星星由热气体构成”刚好引出气体话题，和后文内容完美衔接。
26. 前文说明星光需要穿过空气才能被人观测到，后文提到星星有时会闪烁，B选项“空气一直在流动，这也会让星光发生偏移”刚好解释了星星闪烁的原理，上下文逻辑连贯。
27. 前文点明星星的颜色由自身温度决定，A选项“令我们惊讶的是，温度低的星星是红色，温度高的星星是白色”直接承接温度和颜色的对应关系，符合段落逻辑。
28. 该题为开放性试题，围绕星星对人类的意义作答，表述通顺、字数符合要求即可，给出的示例符合题意。
【答案】
