点一下不认识的单词。
In June 2024, you can see planets and the Moon in the morning sky. On June 2nd, Mars, which is red, is below the crescent Moon. Saturn is also near them. The next day, the Moon moves below Mars.
Jupiter returns as a morning planet by the last week of June. On June 24th, it is about ten degrees above the horizon just before sunrise. It climbs higher each day as July comes.
On June 27th, the Moon and Saturn rise around midnight. By dawn, they are high in the southern sky. They look very close and can be seen together through binoculars.
Sometimes it is hard to know if a bright object in the sky is a star, a planet, or a satellite. Planets shine steadily, but stars twinkle. Satellites move slowly in straight paths and do not have flashing lights like airplanes.
NASA shares more tips for skywatching and the phases of the Moon in June. You can learn more about space and planets at NASA’s website.

难句解析
- 1
Jupiter returns as a morning planet by the last week of June.
这里的“returns as a morning planet”不是“回来作为一颗行星”，而是“重新成为清晨可见的行星”。整句意思是：到六月最后一周，木星又能在清晨看到。
- 2
On June 24th, it is about ten degrees above the horizon just before sunrise.
“ten degrees above the horizon”不是温度，而是指木星在地平线上方大约10度的位置。整句：6月24日，太阳升起前，木星在地平线上方约10度。
- 3
Sometimes it is hard to know if a bright object in the sky is a star, a planet, or a satellite.
“it is hard to know if...” 结构，it 是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的从句。整句：有时很难分辨天上明亮的物体到底是恒星、行星还是卫星。
