VI Read the passage carefully Choose the correct answer and decide if the statements are true (T) or false (F)
How many planets are there in our galaxy? That’s a tricky question to answer Are there other planets that support life? That’s exactly what the Helper mission hopes to discover
NASA launched the Helper space telescope, designed to find habitable planets, in 2009
So far it has discovered five new Earth-sized planets beyond our solar system These planets are hotter than the Earth’s sun - much too hot for life as we know it The Helper team predict that they will need at least three years (and possibly longer) to find an Earth-like planet
The simplest requirement for a planet to have life (carbon-based life like on Earth) is for there to be liquid water (not frozen or gas) so the distance from the planet’s sun and therefore temperature are important There also needs to be the correct amount of air If a planet is as small as Mars (half the size of Earth) its weak gravity means that it can’t hold
on to air molecules If a planet is Neptune sized (four times bigger than Earth) it has very
Trang 6strong gravity and too much air So size matters too Will we be sad if we discover we are alone in our galaxy or happy if we find that we share it with other life forms?
29 What is the Helper space telescope looking for?
a planets in our solar system
b life on other planets
c new galaxies
c objects in space
30 A planet can support life if it has _
a carbon and oxygen
b gas and water
c heat and gravity
d water and air
31 How long will the Helper team need to find an Earth-like planet?
a three years b about three years
c more than three years b less than three years
32 Helper has found five new Earth-like planets
33 These planets are not in our solar system
34 A very small planet will have too much air
