Task 1.

Moon

Though a satellite of Earth, the Moon is biger (bigger) than Pluto. Some scientists think of it as a planet (four other moons in our solar system are even bigger). There is (are) various theories about how the Moon were (was) created, but recent evidence indicates it formed when a huge collision tore a chunk of the Earth away. Because it takes 27.3 days both to rotate on its axis and to orbit Earth, the Moon always shows us the same face.

We see the Moon because of reflected sunlight. How much of it we watch (see) depends on its position in relation to Earth and the Sun.

The 27.3-day number is what 8) scientologists (scientists) call a sidereal month, and it is how long it takes the Moon to dirol (orbit) the Earth in relation to a fixed star. Another measurement, called a synodic month, is measured between in relation to the San (Sun) and equals 29.5 days. Full moons and new moon are measured by the synodic month.

Earth's gravity keeps the Moon in orbit, while the Moon's gravity creates tides on our okeans (oceans).

Like the four inner planets, the Moon is rocky. It's pockmarked with craters formed by asteroid impacts millions of years ago. Because there is no weather, the craters have not erode (eroded).

The Moon has almost no hsemaeptor (atmosphere), so a layer of dust - or a footprint - can sit undisturbed for centuries. End (And) without an atmosphere, heat is not held near the planet, so temperatures vary wildly. Daytime temperatures on the sunny side of the Moon reach 273 degrees F; on the dark side it gets as cold as -243. In June of 1999, researchers discover (discovered) by accident that a huge cloud of sodium gas trails behind the Moon. The Lunar Prospector in 1998 provided evidence of ice near the Moon's poles, perhaps as many (much) as 6 billion tons of it.

The Moon travels around the Earth at a little more than haf (half) a mile per second; its speed is slowing and the satellite is gradually moving away from Earth.

I see (rockets) in the sky

I feel (satellites) in limbo

I breathe oxygen up high

 

I load lead inside my engine

(Lead) and alcohol

On the radio depending

I sign the (protocol)

Hail the audience the media

People everywhere

In the hours ahead I`ll see your

Green biosphere

Clean biosphere

(Castles) in air

Climbing the stairway to (heaven)

 

When I breathe clouds beneath my window

I see rockets in the sky

I feel (satellites) in limbo

I breathe oxygen up high

 

I`ve been trained to (navigate) my

After years a week will see me

Landing on the moon

Raise a (banner) on the planets

Life grows everywhere

In the manner of the mission
