A few form groups which travel together, but most of them travel alone. And they travel through a universe which is so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most important part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbour. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere near it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to come near our sun just as the sun and the moon raised its tides(潮汐) on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; A large tidal(潮汐的) wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and thrown off small parts of itself into space.These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets.（1）Most stars are _.A . following a regular path in spaceB . moving about without a fixed courseC . seldom wandering about in the universeD . always travelling together（2）Some two thousand years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because _.A . the star moved away from the sunB . another star happened to come near the sunC . the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD . a large tidal of wave travelled over the surface of the sun（3）The article suggests that _.A . how space formedB . our earth exists before the sunC . no one knows where the earth comes fromD . our earth used to be a high mountain in the sun（4）The expression the cause of the disturbancerefers to _.A . the large tidal waveB . the powerful tidal pullC . the star coming near the sunD . one of suns planets（5）In the article, the writer mainly wants to tell us _.A . where the planets in the universe came fromB . how the high mountains were formed on the sunC . that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itD . why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerful6. （6分）根据材料内容，选择正确答案。Take a look at the following ads!
