Most of these have been gas giant planets like Jupiter, which are unfit for life.But an international team has detected a cold planet about 5.5 times more massive than the earth — still small enough to be considered earth-like — moving around a star about 20,000 light years away, close to the center of the Milky Way.To find this new planet, the team used a technique called gravitational microlensing (引力微观透镜法). When a planet is circling the closest star, the planet’s gravity can add its own signature to the light. This kind of light signature was observed on July 11 by a group of telescopes in a project known as OGLE, short for Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment.“The main advantage of microlensing is the signals for low-mass planets: They’re not weak signals. They’re just rare,” Bennett of the University of Notre Dame in Indiana said by telephone. “If there happens to be a straight line between a foreground star with its planet and the background source star, then you’re able to detect that planet.”1.The underlined word “detected” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_________”.A. discovered B. destroyedC. created D. searched2.The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ____.A. prove that scientists have a lot of difficulties in doing scientific researchB. explain why this planet moves around a star like our sunC. teach the readers some basic knowledge about the universeD. tell people about a new technique that finds the most earth-like planet moving round another star3.From the news report we can infer that _________.A. the planet is like the earth because it is close to the center of the Milky WayB. it is quite possible that life may exist on other planets in the universeC. people have no interest in finding a planet that might support lifeD. the question “Are we alone” is too difficult for scientists to answer4.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. The signals coming from low-mass planets are too weak to be noticed.B. Most of the discovered planets are not fit for people to live on.C. If a star with its planet happens to be in line with the source star, then the planet can be found.D. The power of the new technique is proved by the discovery of the earth-like planet.
