Mercury.
It is a strange planet, because the same side always faces the Sun, so one half of the planet is very hot and the other is extremely cold.
Venus.
It’s called cloudy. The thick gases in its atmosphere have created a greenhouse effect with temperature of up to 600o C during the day.

Конкурс 6. Arrange mixed parts of the text in logical order.
(Разрезанные части текста построить логически.)
Text : On the Moon.
In 1969 the first astronauts from the Earth landed on the Moon. They had prepared for the trip for a long time and knew that their mission involved doing things that had never been done before.

The astronauts wore special heavy boots to prevent them from floating off into the space.
On the moon they had time to collect Moon rocks before returning to the Earth. It was a challenge.

Those brave people and others after them are responsible for much of the knowledge we now have, about how the Moon was formed.

It is likely, that scientists will continue to learn more about how the Galaxy was formed by studying the data back from the Moon.

Подведение итогов мероприятия, подсчет баллов, рефлексивно-оценочный этап.
- For thousands of years people have been dreaming of space traveling, of reaching and touching the stars, they wrote tales, poems. Today we’ve learnt more about space and listened to you. And one more question for you – If you had an opportunity to travel into space, what planet would you choose and why?
