A planet that suffers 475 C beneath a thick acid atmsphere may be the last place yu'd expect alien (外星的) life in ur slar system. But ne NASA
scientist claims that extraterrestrials (天外来客) are mst likely hiding n Venus amid cnditins that are unbearable fr humans. The new thery was put
frward by the research scientist Dr Michelle Thaller. She says that pssible signs f life have already been seen within the carbn-dixide filled
atmsphere, adding that she was abslutely certain that life exists smewhere.
Venus is ften described as Earth's twin due t its similar size and structure. But their cnditins culdn't be further apart, as astrnmers believe it
wuld be impssible fr humans t exist n Venus. Psitined 67 millin miles frm the Sun, Venus is the httest planet in ur slar system, suffering
temperatures that can even melt lead. Its atmsphere als adds t the uninhabitable situatin.
Despite this, scientists have lng debated whether Venus' cluds may hst micrbial (微生物的) life frms that can survive. Many scientists think that
phtsynthesis (光合作用) is pssible n the planet's surface as Venus receives enugh slar energy t pass thrugh its thick cluds.
Hwever, Prfessr Dminic Papineau, a bilgist at the University Cllege f Lndn, believes Dr Thaller's views are “difficult t realistically
assume”. He explained, “Fr life-related chemical reactins t take place, liquid water is necessary. Hence, t find extraterrestrial life, we need t find
liquid water, and t find extraterrestrial fssils requires lking fr special rcks that were assciated with liquid water in the past.”
This makes life n Venus tday difficult t realistically assume, because its surface is t ht, althugh Venus might have had liquid water in its past.
Even still, bth Prfessr Papineau and Dr Thaller agree that the icy mns f ur slar system culd als be sites f ptential micrbial life. NASA
suggests there are 290 “traditinal mns” in ur slar system-excluding 462 smaller minr planets.
【小题1】What can we knw abut Venus?
A.Its atmsphere is thin acidic.
B.It is much bigger than Earth.
C.It is 77 millin miles frm the Sun.
D.Venus and Earth are cnsidered as twins.
【小题2】Which statement wuld Papineau agree with?
A.Phtsynthesis can happen n Venus's surface.
B.Thick cluds make phtsynthesis in Venus hard.
C.Liquid water is imprtant fr the extraterrestrials.
D.Sme rcks can prve life exists n Venus.
【小题3】What can we knw frm the last paragraph?
A.The surface temperature f Venus is high.
B.It's very easy t cnfirm life n Venus.
C.Venus might have liquid water nw.
D.Many icy mns g arund Venus.
【小题4】In which sectin f a newspaper can yu find this text?
