The universe likes t be shy abut its age,but astrnmers believe they have a pretty gd idea f the range.Currently,the mst widely accepted age fr the universe is arund 13.8 billin years,but determining the age ,everything,is n easy feat(功绩）. Nw.new studies have investigated the questin using different methds-and they've cme up with tw different answers,separated by mre than a billin years.
Because the universe is expanding at an accelerating pace,the further away an bject is,the faster it appears t be mving away frm us.This is expressed as the Hubble cnstant（哈勃常数），and it's a key factr in figuring ut the age f the universe.After all.if we can determine hw fast mving away frm us,we can rewind that prcess t its beginning-the Big Bang.Researchers frm the University f Oregn set ut t map the distance t dzens f galaxies The team calculated that the universe is nly 12.6 billin years ld-that,yu might ntice is much yunger than the 13.8 years usually stated.
In the secnd study,the methd f figuring ut the age f the universe is by mapping the ldest light we can detect.We are restring the 'baby pht' f the universe t its riginal cnditin, remving the wear and tear f time and space that distrted(扭曲）the image,says Neelima Sehgal,c-authr n the study.Only by seeing this sharper baby pht r image f the universe can we mre fully understand hw ur universe was brn."In ding s, the researcher determined that the universe is 13.8 billin years ld-in agreement with the accepted age.
The real prblem thugh,is that the studies disagree s wildly with each ther, t the tune f a billin years.But they are nt the nly nes-the battle lines are cmmnly drawn by the methds used. Obviusly.mre research is heeded t determine where the truth lies.
( )4.What d we knw abut the universe frm the first tw paragraphs?
A.It desn't exist lng. B.It becmes larger.
C.It runs away. D.It causes the Big Bang.
( )5.What makes the researchers in the first study think the universe is much yunger?
A.The speed f mving bjects.
B.The number f galaxies.
C.The prcess f the universe evlutin.
D.The distance t ther bjects.
( )6.Hw des Neelima Sehgal explain their methd in the secnd study?
A.By referring t a similar thing.
B.By using hard scientific data.
C.By intrducing a new cncept.
D.By quting an expert's wrds.
( )7.Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A.Whse methd is better?
B.Which result can yu believe?
C.Hw ld is the universe?
D.Why is the universe s ld?
