单选题{{B}}Passage 44{{/B}}
For more than thirty years scientists
have been searching for signs of life on other planets. Most of these searches
have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be
trying to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television
messages, as well as messages on spaceships traveling through space, {{U}}on the
chance{{/U}} that someone may be receptive to such messages.
Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to "listen" to signals from
about 1,000 stars, all within 100 light years of the earth. In addition, they
will scan the entire sky to listen for radio messages from more distant stars.
Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight million channels
at a time. Scientists are looking for any signal that stands out from the
background noise. Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way
galaxy, scientists find that five percent of the stars are like our sun. Perhaps
half of them have a planet like the earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable
distance from the star for the temperatures to be right for the evolution of
life. Believing that there are the inhabitable (that can be lived in) planets in
our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are that one or more of these
planets support some life. However, many scientists wonder
whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that thirty years
of searching without any intelligent messages show that no one is out there.
They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is
unlikely. (44) {{U}}Other scientists believe that our search
hasn't been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists
in our galaxy.{{/U}} Although our sun family is only about five billion years old,
our galaxy is about 20 billion years old. In that time some scientists think it
is likely that civilizations are much more advanced than ours. Perhaps these
civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the signals
they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe
that we have to keep looking.
