11．For people who are interested in space，nothing is more exciting than the idea of life on other planets．At first，when Mars showed signs of having life，everyone was excited．The idea has inspired many films and stories including The Martian（《火星救援》），which shows a man struggling to survive on Mars．But would it actually be possible to live there？
While the idea of living on Mars is great，the reality does not look as good．Mars does not have a friendly atmosphere（大气） for humans．There is very little oxygen（氧气）there，and because of the distance from the sun，It is also very cold．The temperature on Mars can be-62℃on average．This is much too cold for humans，
However，scientists say it might be possible to live there without an atmosphere．Mars has a similar amount of daytime to Earth，which means there's enough sunlight to grow plants inside safe buildings．However they would have to grow in soil from Earth．Mars does not have a strong enough atmosphere to stop the radiation（辐射） from space，which makes it dangerous to grow things in the soil．
Also，the radiation causes problems to our health．One way we could survive the radiation and cold temperature would be to build homes under the ground or within the rocks（岩石） on the planet．These would give humans the heat and protection the planet doesn't have．
Although it's a long time before we would be able to live on Mars，NASA is hoping to make some progress within the next 20years．

4．The faces of the elderly，happily-married people sometimes look like each other．Dr．Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years．Each couple provided four photographs-one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo to remove any clues．The photos were then displayed in groups：a random（随意的）grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later．Some judges were asked to pick out the partners．They failed totally with the first group．Their judgments were no better than chance．But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage，the judges were quite successful at deciding who was married to whom．They were particularly successful with the most happily-married couples．
Dr．Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike．One reason has something to do with imitation．One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it．He says human beings copy the expressions of the faces of their loved ones．Another possible reason，he says，is the common experience of the couples．There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways．For example，if a couple suffered a lot of sad experiences，their faces are likely to change in a similar way．
