Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Question

The question asks about the shape of Earth's orbit around the Sun. It provides four options to choose from.

Step 2: Analyzing the Options
  1. An ellipse that is almost circular
  2. A circle
  3. An ellipse that is elongated
  4. A spiral
Step 3: Applying Knowledge of Earth's Orbit

The Earth's orbit around the Sun is not a perfect circle but an ellipse. However, this ellipse is very close to being circular, meaning it is not significantly elongated.

Final Answer

The shape of the Earth's orbit around the Sun is \(\boxed{\text{an ellipse that is almost circular}}\).
