Mars( 火星) appears to be flowing with small streams of salty water, at least in the summer,scientists reported Monday. "It suggests that. it would be possible for there to be life today on Mars," NASA's science mission chief, John Grunsfeld, said at a news conference on September 28, 2015. The streams are about 12 to 15 feet wide and 300 feet or more long, scientists said.
"What we're dealing with is wet soil. thin layers of wet soil, not standing water," said Aifred McEwen of the University of Arizona at Tueson ! the principal scientist for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's high-resolution imaging experiment.
Because liquid water is essential to life, the findings could have major implications for the possibility of Martian life. The researchers said further exploration is needed to determine whether microscopic life exists on the planet.
The presence of liquid water could also make life easier for astronauts visiting or living on Mars. Water could be used for drinking and for creating oxygen and rocket fuel. NASA's goal is to send humans there in the 2030s.
The evidence of flowing water consists largely of dark, narrow streaks(條痕) on the surface that tend to appear and grow during the warmest Martian months and fade the rest of the year.
Mars is extremely cold even in summer, and the streaks are in places where the temperature is as low as minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit. But salt can lower the freezing point of water and melt ice.
The source(源頭) of the water is a mystery. Scientists noted it could be melting ice. It could be an underground aquifer, which is rock or sand that can hold water. It is possibly water vapor from the thin Martian atmosphere, Or it may be a combination Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA's Mars exploration program, said the only definitive way for now to determine whether there's life on Mars is to collect rocks and soil for analysis on Earth - something a U. S. lander set for lift-off in 2020 will do.
1.What would be the best title for the text? '
A Streams of Water Spotted on Mars
B. Astronauts will Land on Mars
C. NASA's Mars Exploration Program
D. A Breakthrough in the Exploration of Mars
2.According to John Grunsfeld, there seems to be on Mars.

Attraction of the Minions
When it comes to film, people usually favor good over evil, focus on the hero and ignore the supporting characters. _1. __
Originally comedic background characters in the film Despicable Me(卑鄙的我), these yellow pill-shaped nuts, have totally stolen the show and turned into a popular figure. This summer the characters debuted(首演) in their own self-titled movie in theaters abroad, having the second biggest opening weekend of all time for a cartoon film according to USA Today.
Recently, McDonald’s has been including Minion toys with kids’ meals in some areas, causing loyal fans to flock to the restaurant to collect them all. __2.__ The movie’s huge popularity even surprised its writers. “We never knew the Minions were going to be so popular. It just became a force of nature,” the film’s co-writer Cinco Paul told the Los Angeles Times.

US entertainment website Hit Fix explains that their way of communicating makes the creatures influential as well. __4. __ But it seems everyone can understand them through their exaggerated(夸張的) movements and expressions. More importantly, their childlike mannerisms is a brand of humor that wins hearts. “Clumsy, foolish Minions are recognized as the ultimate β personalities,” wrote Peter Debruge of US entertainment magazine Variety. They desire nothing more than to serve their most despicable master. __5.__ "Perhaps we love Minions because they remind us of ourselves," Huffington Post associate Web editor Sara Boboltz wrote, "or an evil version of ourselves."
A. So what makes the banana-loving Minions a big hit?
B. Besides, their childlike manner entertains fans more.
C. And this evil characteristic arouses sympathy among humans.
D. Related video games, toys and other goods are sweeping the world.
E. Minions is a 2015 American 3D computer-animated family comedy film.
F. But when it comes to the Minions, these conventions go right out the window.
G. The largely speak in nonsense words with the occasional recognizable terms like “potato”.
