Water makes up 71% f the Earth’s surface, but n ne knws hw r when such massive quantities f water arrived n the Earth. A new study published in the jurnal Nature brings scientists ne step clser t answering that questin.
Led by University f Maryland Assistant Prfessr f Gelgy Megan Newcmbe, researchers analyzed melted meterites (熔化的陨石) that had been flating arund in space since the slar system’s frmatin 4.5 billin years ag. They fund that these meterites had extremely lw water cntent — in fact, they were amng the driest materials ever measured utside the Earth.
These results, which let researchers rule them ut as the primary surce f the Earth’s water, culd have imprtant infrmatin fr the search fr water — and life — n ther planets. It als helps researchers understand the unlikely cnditins making the Earth a livable planet.
Researchers wanted t understand hw ur planet managed t get water because it’s nt cmpletely bvius. Getting water and having surface ceans n a planet that is small and relatively near the sun is a challenge.
“We knew that plenty f uter slar system bjects were differentiated, but it was srt f secretively assumed that because they were frm the uter slar system, they must als cntain a lt f water,” said Sune Nielsen, a study c-authr and gelgist at the Wds Hle Oceangraphic Institutin. “Our paper shws this is definitely nt the case. As sn as meterites melt, there is n remaining water.”
The findings have applicatins beynd gelgy. Scientists f many fields — and especially explanet (系外行星) researchers — are interested in the rigin f the Earth’s water because f its deep cnnectins with life.
“Water is cnsidered t be a must fr life t be able t exist, s as we’re lking ut int the universe and finding all f these explanets, we’re starting t wrk ut which f thse planetary systems culd be ptential hsts fr life,” said Newcmbe. “In rder t be able t understand these ther slar systems, we want t understand ur wn.”
8. What did the new study fcus n?
A. The histry f the Earth.B. The rigin f the Earth’s water.
C. The surce f meterites.D. The structure f slar system.
9. What did researchers prve frm melted meterites?
A. The driest materials cming frm ther planets.
B. An impssible surce f the Earth’s water.
C. The challenge f getting water near the sun.
D. The likely cnditins making the Earth habitable.
10. Why des the subject f the Earth’s water appeal t scientists?
A. Because it is clsely related t life.
B. Because it can make them famus.
C. Because it cncerns many disciplines.
D. Because it is deeply cnnected with uter space.

Cllege is a time f transitin (过渡) fr yung adults. It may be the first time students have the freedm t determine hw t spend their time, but this freedm cmes with cmpeting interests frm learning, scial events and even sleep.
A multi-institutinal team f researchers cnducted the first study t evaluate hw the nightly sleeping time in the early term affects first-year cllege students’ end-f-term grade pint average (GPA). The study evaluated mre than 600 first-year students acrss five studies at three universities. The students wre wrist devices like smartwatch t mnitr and recrd their sleep patterns. The researchers fund that students in the study sleep n average 6.5 hurs a night.
Mre surprisingly, the researchers fund that students wh receive less than 6 hurs f sleep experienced a prnunced decline in academic perfrmance. In additin, each hur f sleep lst crrespnded t a 0.07 decrease in end-f-term GPA.
“Animal studies have shwn hw critical sleep is fr learning and memry” said Creswell, the William S. Dietrich Ⅱ Prfessr in Psychlgy. “Here we shw hw this wrk translates t humans. The less nightly sleep a first-year cllege student gets at the beginning f the schl term predicts lwer GPA at the end f the term, sme five t nine weeks later. Lack f sleep may be hurting students’ ability t learn in their cllege classrms.”
“Once yu start dipping belw 6 hurs, yu are starting t accumulate (积累) massive sleep debt that can damage a student’s health and study habits, hurting the whle system,” said Creswell. “Mst surprising t me was that n matter what we did t make the effect g away, it lasted.”
“A ppular belief amng cllege students is t value studying mre r partying mre ver nightly sleep,” said Creswell. “Our wrk here suggests that there are ptentially real csts t reducing yur nightly sleep n yur ability t learn and achieve in cllege. There’s real value in planning fr the imprtance f nightly sleep.”
12. Hw did the researchers get their data?
A. By ding varius experiments.
B. By cnducting a questinnaire survey.
C. By recrding the subjects’ sleep.
D. By referring t a previus study.
13. Which f the fllwing can best replace the underlined wrd “dipping” in paragraph 5?
A. Rising.B. Putting.C. Adjusting.D. Drpping.
14. What des Creswell expect students t d?
A. Schedule nightly sleep wisely.B. Fcus n learning and academy.
C. Pay ff accumulated sleep debt.D. Value studying mre ver partying.
15. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Students are severely in need f sleep
B. Nightly sleep is key t students success
C. Lacking sleep can damage a student’s health
D. Cllege students arrange time unreasnably
