Pitanje 1
1.

The moon is less brighter than the sun.

Pitanje 2
2.

The sun is the most brightest object in our solar system.

Pitanje 3
3.

It even reflects off Pluto, which is farther away than any planet.

Pitanje 4
4.

Pluto is also smaller than any planet.

Pitanje 5
5.

Jupiter is the most largest planet.

Pitanje 6
6.

Earth is the most largest of all the rocky inner planets.

Pitanje 7
7.

The inner planets are less gassier than the outer planets, which are mostly gas.

Pitanje 8
8.

Since all the planets were formed at about the same time, it is hard to say which ones are more older than the others.

Pitanje 9
9.

Venus has a thick atmosphere that is more poisonous than Earth.

Pitanje 10
10.

On the other hand, Mars has a more thinner atmosphere than Earth’s atmosphere.

Pitanje 11
11.

The most loveliest sights in the solar system are the ring systems around some of the planets.

Pitanje 12
12.

Of all the planets, Saturn has the most extensivest system of rings.

Pitanje 13
13.

Because they are so large, Saturn’s rings reflect more sunlight and are more shinier than the rings of Jupiter.

Pitanje 14
14.

Our moon looks bright to us because it is much more closer to Earth than the stars.

Pitanje 15
15.

Saturn has the most moons of any planet.

PART 2 of 2

DIRECTIONS:

1. TEN of the sentences are incorrect. Write the correct form of each double or incomplete

comparison in the box. (10 points)

*The comparison has been underlined for you.

2. FIVE of the sentences are correct. Write none in the box for those sentences. (5 points)

*The comparison has been underlined for you.

Pitanje 16
16.

The sun is smaller and less hotter than many other stars.

Pitanje 17
17.

The sun is, of course, the most closest to Earth of all stars.

Pitanje 18
18.

Even though the star Proxima Centauri is 4.3 light years away from our sun, it is still closer than any star.

Pitanje 19
19.

Astronomers have learned how to tell which stars are more farther away than other stars.

Pitanje 20
20.

If several stars have the same magnitude, or true brightness, the star that is the most faintest is the farthest away.

Pitanje 21
21.

The most brightest of all stars are supernovas.

Pitanje 22
22.

These are huge stars that explode at the end of their lives, and shine brighter than anything else around them for many months.

Pitanje 23
23.

After a supernova explodes, the remaining matter falls inward to become the most densest of all stars, a neutron star.

Pitanje 24
24.

Even though a neutron star is small, its dense makeup makes it heavier than any other star.

Pitanje 25
25.

Some supernovas collapse inward to form a black hole, where the gravity is stronger than that of other stars.

Pitanje 26
26.

The sun can never be a supernova, because such a star must be much more massive than the mass of our sun.

Pitanje 27
27.

The sun will expand and become a red giant eventually, and its surface temperature will become more lower than its temperature at present.

Pitanje 28
28.

As the sun expands, in several billion years, the surface of Earth will become the most hottest it has ever been.

Pitanje 29
29.

Star color is one way astronomers can tell which stars are the hottest and the most coolest.

Pitanje 30
30.

Yellow stars, like our sun, are cooler than stars that are white or blue-white.
