【题目】【原创】There are no signs of little green men on Mars. But new discoveries offer a bit more hope that some form of life existed there in the past --- and perhaps is still there in the present. Methane gas(甲烷) and water have been found on the Red Plane. The presence of both suggests at least the possibility of life.

According to a new report in the journal, Science, the Mars rover, Curiosity, has detected spikes of methane in the Martian atmosphere. This gas is also found in the Earths atmosphere, and comes from animal and plant life, as well as from the environment itself. If theres methane in Mars atmosphere, where is it coming from? Scientists arent sure. But it marks a big change. In September 2013, Curiosity found almost no traces of methane in the Martian air. Just weeks later, however, the rover picked up a whiff of(一点点) the gas.

The scientists dont know whether the methane spikes are caused by some form of biological matter or by the geology of the planet. Christopher Chyba, a professor of astrophysics and international affairs at Princeton, says its best not to be too hopeful about biology on the Red Planet. Hopes for biology on Mars have had a way of disappearing once Martian chemistry has been better understood, he says. But figuring out whats responsible for the methane is clearly a key astrobiological objective --- whatever the answer turns out to be.

The discovery of water on Mars is nothing new. For decades, scientists have had evidence that it flowed across the surface of the planet billions of years ago. But according to another new report in Science, while the surface water on Mars seems to be long gone, theres a lot more of it left than most of people realize.

This report is also based on findings from Curiosity. Paul Mahaffy, of NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, led the study. He says there is enough water on Mars to cover the surface to a depth of about 165 feet.

It is not easy to reach this water. Most of it is locked up in ice at the planets poles.

1Why do scientists think there might be life on Mars?

A. Because the Mars rover has detected water on the planet.

B. Because there is evidence that little green men exist on the planet.

C. Because the Mars rover has found some plants on the planet.

D. Because both methane and water have been found on the planet.

【2】What is the attitude of professor Christopher Chyba towards life on Mars?

A. Optimistic B. Negative

C. Neutral D. Indifferent

【3】The water on Mars _______________.

A. still flows on its surface

B. covers the whole planet

C. is locked up in ice at the planets poles

D. only existed on it billions of years ago

【4】In which column of a website can we read this text?

A. Culture B. Entertainment

【题目】Have you ever wondered how to work out who your true friends really are? Here are a few tips for you to exactly who your true friends are.

A true friend will also you for who you are and not try to make you into something else that’s different. For , if you have a bat habit, they are going to accept you with that bad habit, the rest of the habits, instead of just ridiculing you about it, at you about it, or putting you down. We all have our shortcomings, and a true friend is one who span> accepting of you, no matter what your are.

It is very hard to the true friends, especially from a large group of friends, as the personalities began to mesh(匹配) over time. So, its you to be very aware, watch your friends, and look back at who’s really been there for you in your difficult situations.

【题目】Woman Uses Daughter's Key to "Steal" Car

Charlie Vansant, a college student of Athens, Ohio, who reported that his car was stolen, got a surprise when he learned a woman had mistaken it for her daughter's car and taken it using her key.

Kate Anderson became an accidental car thief when picking up her daughter's car near an Ohio University building last week. Anderson spotted the Toyota Camry(丰田凯美瑞)and used her daughter's key to unlock the car, start the engine and drive home without realizing that the car wasn't her daughter's.

When Charlie Vansant left class a short time later, he found only an empty parking spot. He first assumed the car had been towed, but when the police couldn't find a record of it, they took a theft report.

The morning after Anderson took the car, her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway wasn't hers. Anderson said she was able to find Vansant's name on paperwork in the glove compartment and look up his phone number on the website for the university.

When Anderson told Charlie the car was in her driveway, "It sounded really suspicious at first, as she wanted to hold the thing for ransom (赎金) , said Vansant. He eventually went to the house with a police officer, where he was reunited with his car. According to the police report, the case was closed "because of mistaken car identity", and Anderson wasn't charged.

Vansant seemed to blame the car company more than the "thief". "Her key fit not only my lock, but my ignition(点火装置)as well so high-five for Toyota, I guess." he said.
