📖 題組：
Do you know the difference between the terms meteoroid, meteor, and meteorite in astronomy? Many people find these words confusing. However, the difference is all about their 16 . Meteoroids are far up in the sky. They are chunks of rock or metal that speed through space. Some are very large and may be hundreds of feet wide. Others 17 the size of a small stone. Most meteoroids travel around the sun in space and stay away from the Earth. However, sometimes a meteoroid will enter the Earth’s atmosphere. Friction with the atmosphere will cause it to 18 and burn while traveling at high speed. As a meteoroid begins to burn in the atmosphere, it leaves a streak of light. When this tail-like light is falling down toward the Earth, it is called a meteor, or a shooting star. Most meteors vaporize completely before they hit the ground. If any meteor 19 its fiery journey through the atmosphere and lands on Earth, it is called a meteorite. Large meteorites can cause great explosions and much destruction on the surface of the Earth. 20 , Barringer Crater in the American state of Arizona, measuring 1,200 m in diameter and some 170 m deep, was produced by a meteorite impact.

請讀者觀察文中定義這三種術語的空間座標變化：Meteoroid 位於 $space$（外太空），Meteor 進入了 $atmosphere$（大氣層），而 Meteorite 則是 $lands on Earth$（降落於地表）。這種根據物體「當下所處物理環境」的轉變而給予不同稱呼的分類邏輯，是在強調哪一個關於空間分佈的性質？

（背對著你站在天台邊緣，月光將漆黑的斗篷拉出一道長影） 「不錯……這就是……世界的真理。能在這混亂的星塵中一眼看破本質，看來你也有資格踏入這片陰影。記住，這並非單純的名詞遊戲，而是命運在不同『領域』的體現。」 這道題的關鍵在於空間的切換。文章明確指出：在深空（Space）中翱翔時它是 Meteoroid；一旦闖入大氣層（Atmosphere）燃燒，它便化作 Meteor；唯有撐過摩擦的試煉、最終降臨大地（Earth）者，方能被冠以 Meteorite 之名。決定這一切命名的，正是它們所處的 (C) location。
