Since early times, people have been fascinated with the idea of life existing somewhere else besides earth. Until recently, scientists believed that life on other planet was just a hopeful dream. But now they are beginning to locate places where life could form. In 1997, they saw evidence of planets near other stars like the sun. But scientists now think that life could be even nearer in our own solar system. One place scientists are studying very closely is Europa, a moon of Jupiter. Space probes have provided evidence that Europa has a large ocean under its surface. The probes have also made the scientists think that under its surface Europa has a rocky core giving off volcanic heat. Water and heat from volcanic activity are two basic conditions needed for life to form. A third is certain basic chemicals such as carbon, oxygen and nitrogen. Scientists believe there might be such chemicals lying at the bottom of Europa’s ocean. They may have already created life, or maybe about to. You may wonder if light is also needed for life to form. Until recently, scientists thought that light was essential. But now, places have been found on earth that are in total blackness, such as caves several miles beneath the ocean. And bacteria, primitive forms of life have been seen there. So the lack of light in Europa’s subsurface ocean doesn’t automatically rule out life forming.
16. What did scientists once believe according to the passage?
17. What have scientists found about Europa, a moon of Jupiter?
18. What have scientists come to know recently about formation of life?

为什么古希腊会产生城邦制,东方国家却长期存在君主专制?亚里士多德认为,君主专制在野蛮人中间常常可以见到,同僭主或暴君制很接近。因为野蛮民族的性情天生就比希腊各民族更具奴性,其中亚细亚蛮族的奴性更甚于欧罗巴蛮族,所以他们甘受独裁统治而不起来叛乱。如果以下各项
