Test 4 · Day and night, and the Moon's faces

You are on a plane flying very smoothly and your juice does not spill. How is this like the spinning Earth?

Mova's choice: option 2 · The right answer: option 2 · right ✓ · Who acts: You, plane, juice, this · What happens: be, fly, not spill, spin · To what, where: plane

This is test 4 of lesson 39 «Day and night, and the Moon's faces» of the physics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives the question's syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause, then the 4 options as the student saw them, each with its tree and pragmatics. Every text is parsed by Mova itself. How the student answered it, with the score of every option and why: the test at school.
