試題分析：這篇短文主要介紹了彗星的組成部分，為什么叫做彗星。彗星有一部分會(huì)移出我們的視線再也不回來(lái)，但又有一部分會(huì)定期回來(lái)像哈雷彗星。

1.根據(jù)后文It shines from the sunlight it reflects (反射)可知彗星像行星一樣本身不發(fā)光。故選C。

.2.根據(jù)后文These clouds, together with the dust, form a long tail.可知這些云加上塵埃形成長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的尾巴�？芍�上文會(huì)提到云的形成故選D。

3.上文許多人可能見(jiàn)過(guò)彗星。根據(jù)句子的轉(zhuǎn)折詞.However，可知與上文發(fā)生轉(zhuǎn)折。故選B。

4.根據(jù)后文Others keep coming back at regular times. 其他的彗星會(huì)定期回歸可知前文再說(shuō)一些彗星。故選B。

5.是非判斷題。根據(jù)Others keep coming back at regular times.可知彗星會(huì)定期回歸。故B項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的。

考點(diǎn)：科普類短文閱讀。
