Reading Comprehension. 阅读理解 （15×2分=15分） Venus(金星) At first, scientists thought that Venus was the planet most likely to have other living creatures. They made some discoveries which made them think this. Venus is the closest in size to the Earth(地球). It seemed to be made in a similar way. It was covered by a layer of "cloud". Later, scientists made more discoveries, which made them think there has never been life on the planet. The layer of cloud is made from sulphuric acid droplets. The surface of the planet is so hot it can melt metal. Any water on the surface would boil away in the heat. Now, once again scientists are beginning to think that there was once life on Venus, and that maybe some still exists. About 50km above the surface of the planet, it is cooler and there is some evidence of water droplets in the clouds, as well as acid. The chemicals in the atmosphere of the planet are different from what scientists had expected. Some scientists say the difference can only be explained by living things changing the atmosphere. Other scientists are less certain. They say it is too soon to understand chemical reactions on another planet. So, is there life on other planets? We still don't know. Words and its explanations match. Fill in each blank with only one letter from A to L.
