In 1957, the Soviet Sputnik was the first to be (2) ________into space. There are currently a number of artificial satellites launched into space by various nations. These satellites make it possible for us to talk on the phone, watch television, predict the weather, map the various surfaces of the earth and learn more about the world in which we live. How does a satellite get started? It is typically launched into space by means of a rocket. After ascending into the thinner air layers above the earth, the satellite is released from the rocket. For a successful satellite launch, a rocket's speed is carefully calculated and controlled. Every object in space is pushed toward the earth's centre by gravity. The inertia of motion will propel the object into space if it has its own velocity of motion. When the orbital velocity is exactly right, these two opposing forces are balanced, causing the satellite to (3) ________ toward the earth while still hovering over its surface. A satellite is said to be in geo-stationary orbit when it completes one revolution around the earth in a 24-hour period; It doesn't change when compared to a point on the surface of the earth. These orbits are typically used by satellites for communication and weather. The camera on the weather satellites takes pictures and sends them back to Earth. These are helping aid in weather forecasting. Radio receivers and amplifiers on communication satellites can (4) ________ waves back at a frequency that is different from the one the satellite received. The beaming frequencies of satellites that are ‘parked’ too close to one another must not interfere with one another. Television signals can be transmitted from one location to other using broadcast satellites, and scientists can (5)________ scientific data from numerous satellites.

The solar system is made up of the sun, planets, moons, asteroids, and comets that 1._____________ around it. Its mysteries and wonders have captured the imagination of people from all walks of life, and it continues to be an area of active research and exploration. The sun is at the centre of the solar system and is the largest object in it. The eight planets in the solar system, 2.___________ Earth, orbit around the sun in nearly circular paths. While the sun is at the centre of the solar system and dominates its gravitational pull, each planet has its own unique set of characteristics that makes it a fascinating object to study. Each planet in the solar system has unique characteristics and features. 3._____________ planets, such as Mercury and Venus, are small and rocky, while others, like Jupiter and Saturn, are much larger and made up mostly of gas. The outer planets, Uranus and Neptune, are 4._________ as ‘ice giants’ because they contain more water, ammonia, and methane than the gas giants. In addition to the planets, the solar system also has numerous moons, asteroids, and comets. These objects provide important 5._______ about the formation and evolution of the solar system.

In the following passage, some words have been deleted. Read the passage carefully and select the most appropriate option to fill in each blank. Any (1) ________that revolves around a planet is a satellite. Mother Earth has a natural satellite in the moon. The earth is circled by a lot of man-made or artificial satellites. In 1957, the Soviet Sputnik was the first to be (2) ________into space. There are currently a number of artificial satellites launched into space by various nations. These satellites make it possible for us to talk on the phone, watch television, predict the weather, map the various surfaces of the earth and learn more about the world in which we live. How does a satellite get started? It is typically launched into space by means of a rocket. After ascending into the thinner air layers above the earth, the satellite is released from the rocket. For a successful satellite launch, a rocket's speed is carefully calculated and controlled. Every object in space is pushed toward the earth's centre by gravity. The inertia of motion will propel the object into space if it has its own velocity of motion. When the orbital velocity is exactly right, these two opposing forces are balanced, causing the satellite to (3) ________ toward the earth while still hovering over its surface. A satellite is said to be in geo-stationary orbit when it completes one revolution around the earth in a 24-hour period; It doesn't change when compared to a point on the surface of the earth. These orbits are typically used by satellites for communication and weather. The camera on the weather satellites takes pictures and sends them back to Earth. These are helping aid in weather forecasting. Radio receivers and amplifiers on communication satellites can (4) ________ waves back at a frequency that is different from the one the satellite received. The beaming frequencies of satellites that are ‘parked’ too close to one another must not interfere with one another. Television signals can be transmitted from one location to other using broadcast satellites, and scientists can (5)________ scientific data from numerous satellites. Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank no. 4.
