  We have always been interested in the moon.2000 years ago people already knew it moved around the earth and where it would be in the sky at different times of the year.At that time, everything about the moon was learned by watching it carefully in the sky.

  When scientists could use telescopes to study the moon more closely, their ideas began to change.They could see the moon was made of rocks.Most scientists thought moon rocks would be different from those on Earth.This was because they believed the moon had once been a planet that had been caught in the earth’s gravity(引力)millions of years earlier.

  In 1969 moon rocks were finally brought to the earth and studied.Much to their surprise, scientists found that, except for water, the moon and the earth were made of the same things.Once again new ideas were needed for this new information.

  After years of study, most scientists now think that the moon was once part of Earth.They believe very early in its history, maybe 4 million years ago, something about the size of Mars hit Earth.This sent billions of rocks into space around our planet.These rocks slowly joined together and after many years became the moon.

  In the future, even though our ideas about the moon may change again, we will still be interested in it.

阅读下列短文,然后根据短支内容回答问题。

    Once my teacher asked me, "What do you think of computer games?" I thought for a while and answered, "They are good and all right". However, more and more young people spend too much time on them. So most of the parents and teachers don't like them. But I think there is nothing wrong with computer games themselves.

First of all, we must admit (承认) that computer games make our life more interesting and colorful. They add excitement to our life. Secondly, they have some advantages such as enriching(使丰富) our imagination, improving our concentration and extending our mind.

Everything has its limit(界限). If you go beyond the limit, it'll be another situation. Believe it or not, computer games can be your enemy if you lose control(控制) of yourself. That's why some people are deeply influenced while others are not. As we can see, to play or not to play, that is the question.

1. What did the writer think of computer games before?

_____________________________________________________________

2. Why don't most of the parents and teachers like computer games?

_____________________________________________________________

3. According to the text, what can be your enemy if you lose control of yourself?

_____________________________________________________________
