87、作者的心碎,使她几乎要哭。再根据上下文可知,她们就要离别了。虽然她们相处时间不长,但是小女孩知道作者是在帮助她们,对作者感情非常深,不想让她离开。所以当看到“请别走”三个字时,作者才心碎,才几乎要哭出来,她们才互相拥抱,很长时间,舍不得放手。故选C项。【49题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“She told me it was supposed to be me and her, and on the bottom of the paper were three little words that instantly broke my heart.

102、s host rocky worlds in habitable zones where liquid water could pool or flow over the planets surfaces.”可知,银河系中大约一半的类似太阳的恒星都有岩石世界,它们位于可居住地带,液态水可能在这些行星表面聚集或流动。由此可以推断,当作者说“这是外星猎人的好兆头”时,他可能是指已经发现了许多可能适宜居住的类日恒星。故选D。【52题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“For nine years, Kepler stared at the stars and watched for the brief
