V. Read the passage and the questions or unfinished sentences, then choose the best answer for each.

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves in front of the Sun and hides at least some part of the Sun

from the earth. In a partial eclipse, the Moon covers part of the Sun; in an annual eclipse, the Moon covers

the center of the Sun, leaving a bright ring of light around the Moon; in a total eclipse, the Sun is

completely covered by the Moon.

It seems rather improbable that a celestial body size of the Moon could completely block out the

tremendously immense Sun, as happens during a total eclipse, but this is exactly what happens. Although

the Moon is considerably smaller in size than the Sun, the Moon is able to cover the Sun because of their

relative distances from Earth. A total eclipse can last up to 7 minutes, during which time the Moon’s shadow

moves across Earth at a rate of about 6 kilometers per second.
