     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 581g. It has a surface temperature
neither too hot nor too cold for liquid (液态) water. Scientists think there is a chance that the planet could
have life.
     The planet Gliese 581g goes around a star called Gliese 581, which is about 20 light-years from Earth.
That is about 194 trillion (万亿) 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 581g. 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 (望远镜) towards the planet and search for radiation (放射). By studying the
radiation, scientists would find out about the chemicals (化学物质) around the planet and discover it Gliese
581g 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 581g. 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 581g ________.
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 581g
B. the kinds of chemicals around Gliese 581g
C. the way of looking for life on Gliese 581g
D. the aim of studying the radiation on Gliese 581g
4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage above?
A. Gliese 581g, a Likely Living Planet.
B. Gliese 581g, a Likely Living Planet.
C. Gliese 581g and Its Star.
D. Gliese 581g and Radiation.

After the Tiger Mom comes the "Wolf Father"


       Tan Xiaoyan, 15:
       My dream is to go to Tsinghua University. There are top educational resources (资源), world famous teachers and excellent students in this university. If  we spend years studying there, we surely will get a
good job and live a better life in the future. However, there must be a lot of challenges and difficulties on
the way. So I will accept (接受) the wolf father's strict educational style if it can really make my dream
come true.
       Liu Boyu, 15:
       I would accept a wolf father because I really need a strict person to help me control (控制) myself.
Now I am interested in playing computer games all day. And I don't want to study. A wolf father can help me focus on my studies. I believe under his strict control I can study better and go to one of the key
universities.
       Shi Yunting, 16:
       I will not accept a wolf father. I don't think I can get used to his educational style. It would make me
too tired to enjoy the golden moments of my childhood. Besides, entering Peking or Tsinghua University
doesn't mean that I will certainly have a bright future. I think studies should be a pleasant thing. We should study in the way that we like.
       Liu Jiahui, 16:
       I don't believe life is only made for studying. There are many meaningful things to do in life. Studying
is one of them. So I will say no to the wolf father's educational style. Even if I don't enter a university as
good as Peking or Tsinghua University, I would still be very happy because I would be going to a
university as a person, not a learning machine.
1. How many students accepted the wolf father's way?
A. 2.        
B. 3
C. 4      
D. 5
2. Why did the wolf father beat his children?
A. Because he didn't love his children
B. Because he wanted his children get high education.
C. Because his children are too naughty.              
D. Because his children didn't behave well at school.
3. According to the passage, we know that Shi Yunting likes __________.
A. to study all the time
B. to go to Peking or Tsinghua University
C. to say no to the wolf father's educational style
D. to play computer games
4. I want to say _____ to the wolf father's educational style, because
