the gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes (微生物) living in the red planets soil.But scientists such as Dr Lisa Pratt,a biologist at Indiana University,say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.“Before we have even discovered if there is life on the Mars,we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms,all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil,” said Dr Pratt.Monica Grady,a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum,London,shares this view.“We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for,” she said.“This is just wrong.”1.What is the passage mainly about?A.A plan turning the Mars into a little earth.B.The necessity of changing the Mars.C.Finding water on the Mars.D.The Mars supporting life.2.Why is Dr Lisa Pratt against the plan?A.Water has been found on the Mars.B.It will cost too much money and work.C.The native life forms on the Mars would be destroyed.D.The earth is being destroyed at an unbelievable speed.3.What could prove the existence of microbes living in the Mars soil?A.Liquid water on the Mars.B.Some creatures on the Mars.C.A lot of good soil on the Mars.D.Signs of methane in the Mars atmosphere.4.What can we infer from the passage?A.Water is a key factor for life; without it,living on the Mars would be impossible.B.The project wont affect the native life forms supposed to live on the Mars.C.The idea turning the Mars into a little earth is nothing but science fiction.D.Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth project.BCan you imagine a cloud floating in the middle of your room?Do you want to know what it feels like to fly like a bird?Find your answers in Time Magazines 25 “Best Inventions”.Here,we have picked out the most interesting 4 to share with you.Talking GlovesEver felt confused by the sign language used by disabled people?Here is the “helping hand” you need.Four Ukrainian students have created a pair of gloves that helps people with hearing and speech problems communicate with others.The gloves are equipped with sensors that recognize sign language and translate it into text on a smartphone.Then the smartphone changes the text to spoken words.Google GlassesGoogle Glasses are like a computer built into the frame of a pair of glasses.With its 1.3-centimeter display,the glasses allow you to surf the Internet and make calls without even lifting a finger.The glasses also have a camera and GPS mapping system.Users can take and share photos,check maps and surf the Internet just by looking up,down,left and right.Indoor CloudsIts not virtual.Thats a real world.Dutch artist Smilde managed to create a small but perfect white cloud in the middle of a room using a fog machine.But it required careful planningthe temperature,humidity(湿度)and lighting all had to be just right.Once everything was ready,the cloud formed in the air with the machine.But it only lasted for a short while.WingsuitsThe suit fulfills your dreams of flying like a bird.Well,not exactly flying,but gliding(滑翔)through the air.It increases the surface area of the human body,which makes it easier for people to float in the air.Fliers wearing wingsuits can glide one kilometer in about 30 seconds.5.Who will probably be the users of “Talking Gloves”?A.Disabled people.B.Normal people.C.Trained people.D.Working people.6.How can users of Google Glasses surf the Internet?A.By moving the mouse.B.By tapping the keyboard.C.By pressing the button.D.By moving the eyeballs.7.Which of the following can help you fly?A.Talking Gloves.B.Google Glasses.C.Wingsuits.D.Indoor Clouds.8.What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A.To introduce some interesting inventions.B.To encourage people to buy these products.C.To draw peoples attention to technology.D.To bring some pleasure to young readers.参考答案：基础【单句语法填空】1.
