Long after people were no longer frightened of planets, they still thought the comets (彗星) were bad beasts (野兽) that wandered in the sky. They were afraid that the comets would suddenly land on the earth and hurt them.But, in fact, even if a comet did hit the earth, nothing much happened. A comet is really a harmless thing.Comets have round heads and long tails, and they are very bright. Sometimes they look like heads with long hair flying with them. Thats why theyre called comets. Comet means long-haired.Like the stars and planets, comets are far away. But we can know its size. The head of a small comet is as wide as the Pacific Ocean. And a big comets head is ten times as big as the earth. Its tail is millions of kilometers long. Then why wouldnt the great big thing hurt us if it hit the earth? Because it isnt solid. Its thin like cloud. Its tail is nothing but bright gas. And its head is made of small pieces that could not hurt the earth.Some comets can be seen for a few months. Then they go away. Some of them come back in a certain number of years. Some are never seen again.Perhaps these comets that never return have broken into pieces. For some astronomers (天文学家) think that shooting stars (流星) are pieces of broken comets.( ) 1. People were afraid _.A. comets are different from planets B. comets wander in the skyC. comets are much bigger than the earth D. comets could hit the earth( ) 2.

From the passage we know the tails of comets are made of _.A. water B. solid C. gas D. small stones( ) 5. Which of the following is TRUE?A. A comet is a kind of planets. B. Comets are about ten times as big as the earth.C. People can hardly see comets. D. Shooting stars may be pieces of broken comets.BThe search for life outside the earth may have moved to a new and exciting level. A team of astronomer said they have found a new planet that has many important parts similar to those of the earth.The planet, which travels around a red dwarf star（红矮星）called Gliese 581C, has the right size and temperature. Most importantly, the planet lies in the suitable living area of the star, which makes the planet not too hot or too cold.Scientists say the new world, Gliese 581C is five times larger than the earth. It may have water since it is in the right place for the red dwarf star to survive in space.Swiss scientist Michael Mayor said it is an important step on the way to find possible life in the space and there are still lots of questions.For more than ten years, astronomers and scientists have been keeping their eyes on the space in search for another earth, another world that can support life or already has it.According to records, the first discovery of extra solar planet going around a normal star was made in 1995. Since then, the number of newly discovered worlds has increased to about 200. But they are just lifeless bodies.Gliese 581C came into our eyes and mankind has reasons to celebrate. After all, we may have living neighbors. The discovery doesnt promise much, but it offers hope that there could be other people or living things out the earth.( ) 6.
