There is probably nothing more mysterious and wonderful-looking in the sky than the Milky Way, stretching like a band of jewels from one end of the sky to the other. Long, long ago, when people gazed at this sight, they were filled with wonder just as you are today. But since they didn’t know what it was, they made up all sorts of strange and beautiful conjectures of the Milky Way.
    For example, in early Christian times, people thought it was a way along which the servants of God went up to heaven. Some imagined it was an opening in the heaven, so that we here on earth could have a glance of the magnificent inside.
    Knowing the facts about the Milky Way, as we do today, doesn’t take away any of the wonder of it. The facts are just as amazing as any "made-up" idea!
    Our galaxy is roughly like a watch, round and flat. If you could get above it and look down on it, it would look like a very large watch. But we are inside the galaxy, and when we look up we are looking towards the edge from inside the "watch". So we’ see that edge around us. And since there are millions of stars in it, they appear to us as the Milky Way.
    Do you know that there are at least 3,000,000,000 stars in the galaxy? And here is an idea of its size. It takes eight minutes for light from the sun to reach the earth. For light from the middle point of the galaxy to reach the sun, it takes about 27,000 years! The galaxy turns about its center like a wheel. From our position in it, it takes about 200,000,000 years just to make one round.

选项 A、If you were above it and look down on it, it would look like a flat and round watch.
B、If you looked at it from its edge, it would look like the Milky Way.
C、If you looked at it from its inside, it would look like a large watch.
D、If you looked up, it would look like a night sky.

答案 A

解析 事实细节的找寻和判断。根据原文Our galaxy is roughly like a watch,round and flat.If you could get above it and look down on it,it would look like a very large watch可知我们的星系大致像块表,又圆又平。如果你从星系上方向下看,它就像一只巨大的表。由此可见A项内容与原文相符,该项为正确答案。
