VIII. Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question.
The Moon revolves once on its axis each time it orbits the Earth, thus always
presenting the same face to earth bound observers. However, even to the unaided eye this
unchanging face shows two contrasting types of landscape dark, plain- like areas of lower
relief, and brighter, decidedly more rugged regions which cover about two- thirds of the
surface. Early astronomers mistakenly referred to the smooth dark areas as Maria (or sea)
giving the name terrace (or land) to the bright up land regions. The terms have persisted
since, even though the Moon’s surface has long been known to be completely waterless.

A. the way it orbits the sun
B. the way its own axis is referred

A. never changes B. change as we move out position

4. One mistake early astronomers made was…………………………… .
A. to confuse the words Maria and terrace
B. ignore the smooth dark area
