This is a sentence of the lesson «Day and night, and the Moon's faces» of the physics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (shadow, sunlight, Earth), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
