Opportunity landed on Mars in January. Scientists now believe that the planet could once have supported life. This discovery was chosen by Science , one of the world's leading magazines ,as the most important scientific achievement of 2004 last Friday. “This little ,wheeled,onearmed box goes around another planet and has done something no human has ever managed,” according to Science. “It has discovered another place in the universe where life could once have existed.” “Although we still can't say that life could have existed in the environment ,it is now certain that there was water on Mars ,” said Steve Squyres, one of the scientists working on the Mars mission. The evidence comes from pictures and chemical readings taken by Opportunity. It includes marks on rocks like those caused by flowing water on Earth and salty chemicals like those found in driedout seabed. Scientists said the new evidence proved beyond doubt that water had existed on Mars. But it is still unknown whether the water on Mars was like an ocean or just ice. While Opportunity has not found any signs of life, the presence of water means life is possible. “In everything we know about life on Earth, there is no example without liquid water ,” Squyres said. “So water is important for the search for life on Mars. ” Researchers agree that a future mission should bring back physical samples. But some scientists worry about the risk that this could introduce dangerous foreign creatures to Earth. “The problem here is how to get the samples back ,” Squyres replied. “ I think it is our responsibility to limit any risk. ” 21.The best title of the passage should be________.

B Head held high, hands firmly gripping her walker, Mary Arnott, 99, walks slowly with dignity through the women's changing room at the Etobicoke Olympium pool, past the teenage girls who have been blowdrying their hair for half an hour, into the mist of the showers, then out of the door and first one into the heated pool. She jumps over to the shallow end, stopping to talk to friends —everyone knows Mary here; she swims twice a week and treats it as a job — about their children, the viciousness( 谬误 )of bridge and their health. In fact, Arnott is an exception to the exception. Not only has she lived 20 years past the average lifespan for Canadians, she's healthy, her mind is sharp and she lives independently. Born in Brooklyn on May 28, 1909, Arnott was raised on Staten Island. She survived scarlet fever( 猩红热 ), helped bring up four siblings( 兄弟姐妹 )after her mother died in 1923 and worked as a secretary in New York City for 12 years, earning $35 a week and a $150 bonus at Christmas.查看更多
