19、 shell drive was part of a government initiative to “regain the balance of nature”. “I have instructed all national parks to do whatever it takes，” says Varawut Silpa-archa，the minister for natural resources.

25、the popular kid in school，Venus （金星）would be the unwelcome one sitting in the corner，largely ignored. Venus has nearly the same mass and size as Earth，but being closer to the sun，it gets nearly twice as much heat from the sun.However，instead of having a climate that is just a warmer version of Earth

27、nuss atmosphere，with one potential explanation that it is the by-product of biology.

28、e so far failed.Our best way of confirming or rejecting the possibility of life on Venus is to go and have a proper look. While Mars has been the focus of interplanetary exploration efforts lately，the phosphine discovery lets people look at Venus in a new light. As NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine

By doing so，we would be able to take direct measurements of phosphine.The discovery of phosphine in Venuss atmosphere

32、C. It has a warmer Earth-like climate.D. It has the unbearable surface and atmosphere.13. What can the discovery of phosphine on Venus indicate?A. There might exist signs of life.B. This kind of gas is very common.C. Many products can be made with it.D. Experiments were once conducted there.14. What

33、 is paragraph 5 mainly about?A. The importance of observations.B. The power of computer simulations.C. The approaches to exploring phosphine.D. The necessity to analyse phosphine.15.
