Operating on money and equipment scrounge from the public and 1. ______
from Silicon Valley millionaires, and on the stubborn strength of their own
dreams, a gang of astronomers recently restarted one of the iconic quests 2.______
of modern science, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence which had
been interrupted last year by a lack of financing money. 3.______
Early in December, a brace of 42 radio telescopes, known as the Allen
Telescope Array, nestled in the shadow of Lassen Peak, came to life and
assumed hopping from star to star in the constellation Cygnus, listening for radio 4.______
broadcasts from alien civilizations. The lines are now open, but with lingering
financial problems, how long they will remain that way is everybody’s guess. 5.______
These should be boom times for those seeking out aliens, or at most 6.______
their radio proxy.
Astronomers now know that the galaxy is teeming with at least as many
planets — the presumed sites of life — as stars. Advanced life and technology
might be rare in the cosmos, said Geoffrey W. Marcy, the Watson and Marilyn
Alberts in Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence professor at the University of 7.______
California, Berkeley, "but surely they were out there, because the number of 8. ______
Earthlike planets in the Milky Way galaxy is simply too great."
A simple "howdy," a squeal or squawk, or an incomprehensive stream 9.______
of numbers captured by one of the antennas at the University of California’s
Hat Creek Radio Observatory would be enough to end our cosmic loneliness
and change history, to mention science. It would answer one of the most 10.______
profound questions humans ask: Are we alone in the universe?
选项
答案
gang—band/group/team
解析
本题为名词误用。四个词都可以表示一组、一队人。但是gang是贬义词,常与流氓、恶棍搭配使用。文中指一组天文学家,适合用中性词band,group或team。
