26、Scientists have long been looking for life in outer space. They recently found something exciting on Venus (金星), the planet closest to ours.
British scientists have discovered phosphine (磷化氢) in Venus’ atmosphere (大气层). Phosphine is a hopeful sign of life. On Earth, phosphine is produced when organic (有机的) matter breaks down. The same thing could be happening on Venus. Still, scientists need to send a probe to Venus to see whether life exists (存在) there.
In fact, Venus has long been ignored (忽视) in the search for life because of its high temperatures and atmospheric pressure. Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system—the surface temperature is 470℃. The pressure there is 92 times greater than that on Earth. Even if humans could bear the heat, they would be crushed (粉碎) by the pressure.
However, it’s possible that life could exist in the planet’s atmosphere. Temperatures there are about - 1℃ to 93℃, which is far more suitable for life. The pressure there is similar to that of the Earth as well. The phosphine was found in Venus’ cloudy atmosphere—around 60 kilometers above its surface.
Phosphine is known as an indirect sign of life. So are gases like methane (甲烷) and ozone. Scientists focus on such signs when they look for life outside of the Earth. These gases can exist in the atmospheres of planets for a long time, allowing scientists to find them with the help of probes. However, it is liquid (液体) water that is considered to be the most important sign of life.

【3】What does the underlined word “which” refer to?

【4】What’s the most important sign of life?

27、There are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment.
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did man tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.
The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官).
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.
【1】The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us ___________.
A. a red box is heavier than a white one
B. a color has weight in one’s mind
C. white paper is lighter than red paper
D. you can know the weight of a color by holding it
【2】Why did the scientist say colors have smell?
A. Because people can sense the light from colors.
B. Because we can smell colors with our nose.
C. Because every color has its own sweet smell.
D. Because every color can give off light of the same length.
【3】If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will _________.
A. rise B. fall
C. stay the same D. change now and then
【4】This passage is probably a ___________.
A. book review(评论) B. fiction novel
C. fairy tale D. science report
