3 . Scientists have long been looking for life in outer space. They recently found something exciting
British scientists
In fact, Venus has long been ignored(忽视) in the search for life because of its
However, it’s possible that life could exist in the planet’s atmosphere. Temperatures there are about -1℃ to 93℃，which is far more suitable
Phosphine is known as an indirect sign of life. So are gases like methane and ozone(臭氧). Scientists focus on such signs when they look for

Scientists think that there has been life on Earth for millions of years. However, we haven’t found life on other planets yet. What not?
The Earth is a planet and it goes around the Sun. Seven other planets also go round the Sun. None of them has an environment with air, so people and things cannot grow. The Sun and its planets are called the solar system. The solar system（太阳系）is a small part of our galaxy.
The stars we see at night are the suns in other solar systems. There are more than 200 billion stars in our galaxy, called the Milky Way and our Sun is only one of them.
But scientists have discovered many other galaxies in universe. They are a long way away and their light has travelled for many years to reach us. It is hard to understand how large the universe is.
Scientists have sent lots of spacecraft to look at other planets in our solar system, and some spacecraft have gone beyond the solar system. However, no one has discovered any life in space yet.
But why has no one from other planets sent us a message? Have they tried to send information to us? With so many stars in the universe, are we alone, or is there life out there in space? We don’t know…yet.

The sunlight comes from the Sun too. The Sun gives us light and warmth (温暖). It makes plants grow and turns leaves green. It makes life possible on the Earth. It is a life-giving star.

But now we know the earth goes around the sun. Today men know how far it is for the earth to go around the sun. They tell us that the earth travels over 1000 miles（英里）a minute on its way around the sun.
The sun is really a star. It is much bigger than the earth and it is very hot. Some people have been to the moon, but we know that no one can ever get to the sun. It is too hot for people to live anywhere near it. The sun is 300, 000 times（倍）heavier than the earth and more than a million（百万）times larger.
