Unit 12 - Đọc hiểu & Từ vựng: Life on other planets

Read the text and decide if the following statements are TRUE or FALSE.

The eight planets in the solar system can generally be grouped into two different categories: the inner rocky planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) and the outer gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune). Earth is the only planet that can be habitable. Scientists explored the possibility of life on other planets for decades. While no concrete evidence of alien creatures or UFOs has been found yet, the possibility of habitable planets in our galaxy is still promising. With the help of advanced technology, experts are searching for any trace of life.

The conditions for life as we know it require a habitable environment, including suitable gravity and atmospheric conditions. Rockets and space missions have been sent to these seven planets to explore and gather information. Some experts oppose the idea because they think that the possibility for life are rare and these actions are useless. However, the question of life beyond Earth remains curious. Commanders of space missions continuously try to discover any signs of creatures or habitable planets. Until then, we can only imagine and guess about the mysteries of the universe.
