The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋轉(zhuǎn)) of the earth. At the equator(赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted(傾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.

Answer 1

小題1:It has two meanings.
小題2:Yes, they are.
小題3:By the spinning.

試題分析：這篇文章講述了“day”這個單詞兩個意思：有一天，也就是24個小時的意思；也有白天的意思。并向我們介紹了為什么會產(chǎn)生白天和黑夜。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)題，根據(jù)文章The word “day” has two meanings.可知“day”這個單詞有兩個意思。故回答It has two meanings.
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)題，根據(jù)文章At the equator day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long.可知，在赤道，白天和黑夜的時間是一樣的，都是12個小時。故回答Yes, they are.
小題3:A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning of the earth.隨著地球的旋轉(zhuǎn)，一個地方總是從白天進(jìn)入黑夜，再從黑夜進(jìn)入白天，如此循環(huán)。故回答B(yǎng)y the spinning.
點(diǎn)評：本文不難，對于此類文體，把握好作者所說明事物的特征，理解文章的大致意思。對于題目，可以在通過關(guān)鍵字的定位，迅速在文章中找到相對應(yīng)的出處，一般答案就在那里。
