  Life today has brought new problems.

  One of the biggest is pollution.Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty.It killed our fish and polluted our drinking water.Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily.Air pollution is the most serious(嚴(yán)重的)kind of pollution.It's bad to all living things in the world.

  Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day.Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that itis like a quilt(被子)over a city.This kind of quilt is called smog(煙霧).

  Many countries are making rulers to fight pollution.Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, they mustn't blow dirty smoke into the air.

  We need to do many other things.We can put waste things in the dustbin(垃圾箱)and not throw it on the ground.We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car, if there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.

  Rules are not enough.Every person must help to fight pollution.

  After spending years searching for a planet with life, scientists may have found one.In September 2010, a team of US scientists discovered an Earth-sized planet called Gliese 581 g.It has a surface temperature neither too hot nor too cold for liquid(液態(tài))water.Scientists think there is a chance that the planet could have life.

  The planet Gliese 581 g goes around a star called Gliese 581, which is about 20 light-years from Earth.That is about 194 trillion(萬(wàn)億)kilometres-500 million times farther away from us than the moon.

  A spacecraft traveling at a one-tenth of the speed of light would reach Gliese 581g within about 220 years.A human can’t live that long, but robotic explorers could make the job easier.However, our fastest spacecraft don’t come anywhere near that one-tenth light-speed mark.

  At present, scientists don’t know what the surface might be like on Gliese 581 g.What they know is that the planet is at the sight distance from its star to have liquid water.It’s also at the right distance to have an atmosphere that could protect the water if it is on the surface.

  Although spacecraft won’t be getting there anytime soon, one way to look for life on Gliese 581g is to turn our radio telescopes(望遠(yuǎn)鏡)towards the planet and search for radiation(放射).By studying the radiation, scientists would find out about the chemicals(化學(xué)物質(zhì))around the planet and discover it Gliese 581 g has an atmosphere.If it has one, studying the atmosphere would give us a good idea if the planet has life or not.But it’ll probably be many years before we can do this properly.

  People have been arguing about whether there is alien life on Gliese 581 g.Any discussion about alien life is just guessing at this point, according to its discoverers.

(1)

What did scientists find in September 2010?

[  ]

A.

A planet with water.

B.

A planet similar to the earth.

C.

A planet without life.

D.

A planet near the earth.

(2)

According to the article, Gliese 581 g _________.

[  ]

A.

is at the right distance from its star

B.

moves around the earth

C.

is as far away from us as the moon

D.

can be reached in about 220 years

(3)

Paragraph 5 is mainly about _________.

[  ]

A.

the possibility of living on Gliese 581 g

B.

the kinds of chemicals around Gliese 581 g

C.

the way of looking for life on Gliese 581 g

D.

the aim of studying the radiation on Gliese 581 g

(4)

Which of the following is the best title for the passage above?

[  ]

A.

Gliese 581 g, a Likely Living Planet

B.

Gliese 581 g, a Likely Living Planet

C.

    Over thirty thousand years ago people from Northern Asia went to   America. Today we call these people Indians.

    The Indians went to America because the weather in Northern Asia   began to change. Northern Asia became very cold. Everything froze. They had to move or die. How did the first Indians go to America?   They walked!

    Later Columbus found the New World in 1642. At first, only a few   Europeans followed. They travelled to America in boats. For the next three hundred years, about 5,000,000 people went there. Then the   number grew very quickly. From 1815 to 1915, over thirty-two million Europeans left their countries and went to the United States. The   biggest groups were from Germany and Italy.
