托福聽力天文學(xué)知識(shí)

 在托福聽力考試中,會(huì)涉及到各種各樣的分類場(chǎng)景,如學(xué)校,圖書館,商店等,當(dāng)然,醫(yī)院也是必不可少的,本文為大家整理了托福聽力天文學(xué)場(chǎng)景知識(shí)普及，希望對(duì)托�？忌�有所幫助。

金星是離太陽第二近，太陽系中第六大行星。在所有行星中，金星的軌道最接近圓，偏差不到1%。中國古人稱金星為“太白”或“太白金星”，也稱“啟明”或“長(zhǎng)庚”。古希臘人稱之為Aphrodite(阿芙羅狄蒂)，是希臘神話中愛與美的女神。而在羅馬神話中愛與美的女神是維納斯—Venus ，因此金星也稱做“維納斯”。也許是對(duì)古代人來說，它是已知行星中最亮的一顆。(也有一些異議，認(rèn)為金星的命名是因?yàn)榻鹦堑谋砻嫒缤�女性的外貌�?金星的天文符號(hào)用維納斯的梳妝鏡來表示。金星的位相變化金星同月球一樣，也具有周期性的圓缺變化(位相變化)，但是由于金星距離地球太遠(yuǎn)，用肉眼是無法看出來的。關(guān)于金星的位相變化，曾經(jīng)被伽利略作為證明哥白尼的日心說的有力證據(jù)。

Venus is the second planet from the Sun, orbiting it every 224.7 Earth days.[11] It has no moon. The planet is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. After the Earth's Moon, it is the brightest natural object in the night sky, reaching an apparent magnitude of 4.6, bright enough to cast shadows.[12] Because Venus is an inferior planet from Earth, it never appears to venture far from the Sun: its elongation reaches a maximum of 47.8°. Venus reaches its maximum brightness shortly before sunrise or shortly after sunset, for which reason it has been referred to by ancient cultures as the Morning Star or Evening Star.

Venus is a terrestrial planet and is sometimes called Earth's "sister planet" because of their similar size, gravity, and bulk composition (Venus is both the closest planet to Earth and the planet closest in size to Earth). However, it has also been shown to be very different from Earth in other respects. It has the densest atmosphere of the four terrestrial planets, consisting of more than 96% carbon dioxide. The atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 92 times that of Earth's. With a mean surface temperature of 735 K (462 °C; 863 °F), Venus is by far the hottest planet in the Solar System. It has no carbon cycle to lock carbon back into rocks and surface features, nor does it seem to have any organic life to absorb it in biomass. Venus is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light. Venus may have possessed oceans in the past,[13][14] but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.[15] The water has most probably photodissociated, and, because of the lack of a planetary magnetic field, the free hydrogen has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind.[16] Venus's surface is a dry desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and periodically refreshed by volcanism

地球是距太陽第三顆，它是太陽系類地行星中最大的一顆，也是太陽系第五大行星，行星年齡估計(jì)大約有45億年(4.5×109)。地球是唯一一個(gè)不是從希臘或羅馬神中得到的名字。Earth一詞來自于古英語及日耳曼語。這里當(dāng)然有許多其他語言的命名。在羅馬神話中，地球女神叫Tellus-肥沃的土地(希臘語：Gaia, 該亞， 大地母親)。直到16世紀(jì)哥白尼時(shí)代人們才明白地球只是一顆行星。

火星為距太陽第四遠(yuǎn)，也是太陽系中第七大行星。因?yàn)榛鹦窃谝箍罩锌雌饋硎茄�紅色的，所以在西方，以羅馬神話中的戰(zhàn)神瑪爾斯Mars(或希臘神話對(duì)應(yīng)的阿瑞斯—Ares)命名它。火星在史前時(shí)代就已經(jīng)為人類所知。由于它被認(rèn)為是太陽系中人類最好的住所(除地球外)，它受到科幻小說家們的喜愛。但可惜的是那條著名的被Lowell“看見”的“運(yùn)河”以及其他一些什么的，都只是如Barsoomian公主們一樣是虛構(gòu)的。在古代中國，因?yàn)榛鹦菬蔁扇缁�，故稱“熒惑”�；鹦怯袃深w小型天然衛(wèi)星：火衛(wèi)一Phobos和火衛(wèi)二 Deimos(阿瑞斯兒子們的名字)。兩顆衛(wèi)星都很小而且形狀奇特，可能是被引力捕獲的小行星。英文里前綴areo-指的就是火星。
