A.whicharesuitableforhumanstoliveonB.someofwhicharepossibleforlifetoexistonC.someofwhichhavethesamesituationsasEarthD.whicharenottoohotortoocoldforwatertoexiston【解析】選B。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段第二句可知,科學(xué)家已經(jīng)確定了八個(gè)太陽系以外的行星,其中三個(gè)或四個(gè)軌道恒星的“適居帶”——水,我們所知的生命存在的必要成分,在這個(gè)地區(qū),水的溫度既不太熱也不太冷,能夠以液體的形式存在。故可推理得知,八顆行星中的其中一些可能存在生命。6.WhichstatementaboutthediscoveryofTorresandhisteamisTRUE?A.Kepler438bistoohotforanylifetoexiston.B.Kepler438band442barethefarthesttoEarth.C.TheyhavemadethediscoveriesthroughKepler.D.Theyhavediscoveredover1000planetsin7years.【解析】選C。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Thescientists,ledbyDr.GuilermoTorresoftheHarvardSmithsonianCenterforAstrophysics,madethediscoveriesusingdatacollectedbytheplanetseekingKeplertelescope.”可知,Torres和他的團(tuán)隊(duì)是利用開普勒望遠(yuǎn)鏡收集的數(shù)據(jù)發(fā)現(xiàn)了這些行星。7.WhatisthepossiblethingthatKepler442blacksforlifetoexiston?A.Thewater. B.Thesunlight.C.Thesoil. D.Theatmosphere.【解析】選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句“Torressaysitispossibleforlifetoexistandsurviveineitherofthosetemperatures,butforthattohappen,theseplanetswouldneedtohaveanotherkeyingredientforlife:aheattrappingatmospherelikeEarth’s.”可知,開普勒442b缺少能夠讓生命存在的另一個(gè)關(guān)鍵組成部分:大氣層。8.Abouttheirexploration,Torreswantstoindicatethat_________.

A.thereisalotlefttolearnB.theyhavehaddecisivegainsC.itisthefirstinhumanhistoryD.itiscertainforlifeontheplanets【解析】選A。推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第三句“Infact,theseplanetsaresofarawaythatthescientistscannotobservethemdirectly,whichcanbeexplanationforwhyfornowitremainsunknownwhethertheseplanetscontainlife.”可知,Torres認(rèn)為這些行星如此遙遠(yuǎn)以至于科學(xué)家們無法直接觀測到它們,這就可以解釋為什么目前還不清楚這些行星上是否存在生命。Torres想要暗示我們還有很多很多東西需要了解?！局R拓展】長難句分析Infact,theseplanetsaresofarawaythatthescientistscannotobservethemdirectly,whichcanbeexplanationforwhyfornowitremainsunknownwhethertheseplanetscontainlife.分析:so...that結(jié)果狀語從句;which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句,指代前面一整句話的內(nèi)容;why引導(dǎo)賓語從句,其中it作形式主語,真正主語是whether從句。翻譯:事實(shí)上,這些行星非常遙遠(yuǎn),科學(xué)家無法直接進(jìn)行觀測,這就解釋了為什么這些行星上是否存在生命還是個(gè)未知數(shù)。Ⅱ.閱讀填句Livingtotheripeoldageof90maydependonyourbodysize—bothheightandweight—aswellasyourlevelofphysicalactivity,andgeeingtoinfluenceawoman’slifespanmorethanitdoesaman’s.Thestudyfoundwomenwholivedto90were,onaverage,tallerandhadputonlessweightsincetheageof20asparedtowomenwhowereshorterandheavier.1However,mensawmorebenefitfromphysicalactivitythanwomen.
