9、rs ago，scientists developed the tools to detect these “exoplanets”Since then，theyve spotted about 450.Most of the findings include one，two or three enormous gas­filled planets orbiting a star.But on August 24，2010，a group of European scientists announced an unusual discovery.They say theyve ide

10、ntified a solar system thats similar to ours.It consists of as many as seven planets orbiting a sun­like star.The star is over 100 light years away from us.The five planets that the scientists are most certain about are largeup to 25 times the size of Earth.According to Christophe Lovis，one of

11、the scientists behind the finding，these five planets are similar to Neptune (海王星)“Theyre made mainly of rocks and ice，” he said.“Theyre probably not suitable for people to live in.”There are also signs of two more planets.One is thought to be similar to Saturn (土星)The other may be the smallest exopl

12、anet ever spotted.Its only slightly larger than Earth.Because its so close to its star，the small planet takes just over a day to orbit it.Spotting faraway planets is challenging.The blazing light given off by the star they orbit makes the planets hard to see.That is why we cannot yet be 100% sure ab

13、out these seven planets.The scientists havent actually seen them.Instead，they used a powerful telescope to study the star for six years.The star gave the scientists clues about the planets that orbit it.According to Alan Boss，a scientist who wasnt involved with the study，“this method is best for fin

14、ding the big guys.” But，he said，the discovery shows spotting smaller planets is also possible.“The really nice thing about finding systems like this is that it shows therere many more out there，” says Boss.“Mother Nature really had fun making planets.”1.In another solar system discovered by the Euro

15、pean scientists，_Athe star orbited by seven planets is over 100 light years away from the sunBall the seven planets are much larger than our earthCnone of the seven planets is suitable for people to live inDfive planets are made mainly of rocks and ice解析：选D。细节理解题。第四段介绍了科学家们比较确定的五颗行星的情况，根据该段的“Theyre

16、made mainly of rocks and ice”可以判断选D。2.According to the passage，what makes it difficult to find those exoplanets?AThe tools which are used to detect them.BThe long distance between them and our earth.CThe light given off by the star they orbit.DThe too long time needed to detect them.解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第六

17、段“Spotting faraway planets is challenging.The blazing light given off by the star they orbit makes the planets hard to see.That is why we cannot yet be 100% sure about these seven planets.”可判断选C。3.It is inferred from the passage that Alan Boss_Ahas always been supporting the European scientistsBbeli

18、eves using a telescope to study small stars is also possibleCthinks the European scientistsdiscovery is a little unbelievableDbelieves there must be another planet with humans living in it解析：选B。推理判断题。从文中倒数第三段最后可知，它们所围绕的行星发出的光芒使它们难以被看到，而欧洲科学家花费了六年时间，用一种功能强大的望远镜观测这颗被环绕的行星，进而通过这颗行星得到其他围绕它的行星的线索，再根据倒数第二

19、段Boss的话可知Boss认为这种方法是最好的，同时他认为用望远镜观察小行星也是有可能的，故选B项。4.The best title for the passage should be_AResearch on the Solar SystemBDifficulty in Studying Mother NatureCScientists Contributions to the UniverseDA Lot like Our Solar System解析：选D。主旨大意题。文章首先介绍欧洲科学家的发现一个与太阳系相似的星系，结尾借Alan Boss之口道出了“像这样的太阳系之外的类似星系还有

20、很多”，由此判断选D。BIn science，a theory is a reasonable explanation of observed events that are related.A theory often involves an imaginary way that helps scientists picture the way an observed event could be produced.A good example of this is found in the kinetic molecular theory(分子运动论)，in which gases are

21、 pictured as being made up of many small particles that are in constant motion.A useful theory，in addition to explaining past observations，helps to predict events that have not as yet been observed.After a theory has been publicized，scientists design experiments to test the theory.If observations co

22、nfirm(证实) the scientists predictions，the theory is supported.If observations do not confirm the predictions，the scientists must search further.There may be a fault in the experiment，or the theory may have to be revised or rejected.Science involves imagination and creative thinking as well as collect

23、ing information and performing experiments.Facts by themselves are not science.As the mathematician Jules Henri Poincare said，“Science is built with facts just as a house is built with bricks，but a collection of facts cannot be called science any more than a pile of bricks can be called a house.” Mo

24、st scientists start an investigation by finding out what other scientists have learned about a particular problem.After known facts have been gathered，the scientist comes to the part of the investigation that requires considerable imagination.Possible solutions to the problem are formulated.These po

25、ssible solutions are called hypotheses(假定)In a way，any hypothesis is a leap into the unknown.It extends the scientists thinking beyond the known facts.The scientist plans experiments，performs calculations，and makes observations to test hypotheses.Without hypothesis，further investigation lacks purpos

26、e and direction.When hypotheses are confirmed，they are incorporated into theories.5.The underlined word in the first paragraph refer to_？Athe way an observed event is produced BKinetic molecular theorys existenceCan imaginary way describing the procession of an observed eventDa visual way to describ

27、e a theory解析：选C。词义猜测题。由this所处语境可知此处是举例说明本段第二句“A theory often involves an imaginary way that helps scientists picture the way an observed event could be produced.”的解释。 6.Which one is TRUE about a theory?AIt can be applied to all kinds of situations once it is announced.BIt can be used to explain the

28、past observations as well as the future ones.CIt still needs more experiments to be carried out to be tested after it is publicized.DIt can be confirmed by the later observations all the way.解析：选C。细节理解题。由第二段的第2句话可知，C项正确。7.How do you understand the mathematician Jules Henri Poincares words?AA collect

29、ion of facts isnt equal to science so a pile of bricks isnt equal to a house.BFacts by themselves are not science just as only a piles of bricks cant be called a house.CA pile of bricks cant be thought of as a house，which is not true in terms of theory.DScience includes the process of thinking and t

30、he process of collecting information.解析：选B。推理判断题。由文中第三段所述可知，此句话意义是指“正如一堆砖块不能够称为一所房子一样，仅仅事实是不能被视作理论的”。8.Which is the right order in which theory is formed?Collecting some known facts.Investigating what other scientists have found out.Starting the research needing much imagination.Testing hypotheses.Formulating hypotheses.Incorporating hypotheses into a theory.A BCD解析：选D。推理判断题。由末段可知，D项是理论产生的正确顺序。.短文改错Mrs.Smith w
