八、Read and finish. 欢迎进入“星际轨道观测站”。请读一读，完成下列任务。
Look at the night sky. What can you see? The Moon and many stars. But do you know how special (特殊的) Earth and the Moon are?
From space, Earth looks like a beautiful blue marble. This blue comes from the oceans. Earth is a planet. It travels around the Sun. Earth is not alone. The Moon is Earth’s neighbour. The Moon travels around Earth. Satellites travel around Earth too. Some satellites are made by people. They help us talk, watch TV, and know the weather. Earth and the Moon are good friends. They work and travel together. We live on Earth, and we can watch the Moon at night. Sometimes the Moon looks big and bright. Sometimes it looks like a small banana. How wonderful that is!
任务一：根据短文内容，判断下列句子的正（T）误（F）。
() 1. Earth looks like a beautiful blue marble because of the clouds.
() 2. The Moon is Earth’s neighbour.
() 3. The Moon and the satellites travel around Earth.
() 4. All the satellites are made by people.
() 5. Sometimes the Moon looks like a small apple.
任务二：请根据太阳、地球和月球的天体运行规律，将下方对应的天体选项填入横线处。
A. Moon B. Earth C. Sun

任务一：1. F 2. T 3. T 4. F 5. F
任务二：1. C 2. B 3. A

【分析】：首先完成任务一需仔细阅读短文，将每个句子与原文内容对比判断正误；任务二需依据天体运行规律：太阳是太阳系中心，地球绕太阳公转，月球绕地球公转，据此对应图中天体。
【解析】：任务一：1. 原文指出地球呈蓝色是因为海洋，而非云，故该句错误；2. 原文明确说明月球是地球的邻居，故该句正确；3. 原文提到月球和卫星都绕地球转，故该句正确；4. 原文表示只有部分卫星是人造的，并非所有，故该句错误；5. 原文提到月球有时像小香蕉，而非小苹果，故该句错误。任务二：根据天体运行规律，图中1是中心天体太阳，2是绕太阳转的地球，3是绕地球转的月球。
【答案】：任务一：1.F 2.T 3.T 4.F 5.F；任务二：1.C 2.B 3.A
【知识点】：英语阅读理解、天体运行规律、判断正误
【点评】：本题结合英语阅读与基础天文知识，考查学生信息提取能力和天体运行认知，题目贴近基础，难度适中。
