Dark Forces Dominate Universe
The Earth, moon, sun and all visible stars in the sky make up less than one percent of the universe. Almost all the rest is dark matter and dark energy, unknown(1)that puzzle astronomers. Observations in recent years have changed the basic understanding of how the universe evolved and have emphasized for astronomers how little is known(2)the major forces and substances that shaped our world. Astronomers now know that luminous matter-stars, planets and hot gas —(3)only about 0.4 percent of the universe. Non. luminous components, such as black holes and intergalactic gas, make up 3.6 percent. The rest is either dark matter, about 23 percent, or dark energy, about 73 percent. Dark matter, sometimes called "cold dark matter" has been known for some(4). Only recently have researchers come to understand the pivotal role it(5)in the formation of stars, planets and even people. "We owe our very existence to dark matter," said physicist Paul Steinhardt and a co-author of a review on dark matter which appeared not long(6)in the journal Science. Steinhardt said it is believed that following the Big Bang, the theoretical(7)of the universe, dark matter caused particles to clump together. That set up the gravitation processes that led to the formation of stars and galaxies. Those stars, in turn, created the basic chemicals, such as carbon and iron, that were(8)to the evolution of life. "Dark matter dominated the formation of structure in the early universe." Steinhardt said. "For the first few billion years dark matter contained(9)of the mass of the universe. You can think of ordinary matter as a froth of an Ocean of dark matter. The dark matter clumps and the ordinary matter falls into it. That led to the(10)of the stars and galaxies." Without dark matter, "there(11)be virtually no structures in the universe." The nature of dark matter is(12). It cannot be seen or detected(13). Astronomers know it is there because of its effect on celestial objects than can be seen and measured. But the most dominating force of(14)in the universe is called dark energy, a i:ecently proven power that astronomers say is causing the galaxies in the universe to separate at a faster and faster speed.

选项
A、many
B、most
C、little
D、few
答案
B
解析
若能理解下文的You can think of ordinary matter as afroth of anocean of dark matter,就知道选little或few是不对。matter是不可数名词,不能用many修饰。选most在用法上、意思上都是正确的。
