16、a pretty good idea of the range. Currently, the most widely accepted age for the universe is around 13.8 billion years, but determining the age of. well, everything, is no easy feat (功绩). Now, new studies have investigated the question using different methodsand theyve come up with two different ans

17、wers, separated by more than a billion years.Because the universe is expanding at an accelerating pace, the further away an object is, the faster it appears to be moving away from us. This is expressed as theHubble constant (哈勃常数), and its a key factor in figuring out the age of the universe. After

18、all, if we can determine how fast objects are moving away from us, we can rewind that process to its beginningthe Big Bang. Researchers from the University of Oregon set out to map the distance to dozens of galaxies. The team calculated that the universe is only 12.6 billion years oldthat, you might

19、 notice, is much younger than the 13.8 billion years usually stated.In the second study, the method of figuring out the age of the universe is by mapping the oldest light we can detect. “We are restoring the baby photo of the universe to its original condition, removing the wear and tear of time and

20、 space that distorted (扭曲) the image,” says Neelima Sehgal, a co-author on the study. “Only by seeing this sharper baby photo or image of the universe, can we more fully understand how our universe was born.” In doing so, the researchers determined that the universe is 13.8 billion years oldin agree

21、ment with the accepted age.The real problem though, is that the studies disagree so wildly with each other, to the tune of a billion years. But theyre not the only onesthe battle lines are commonly drawn by the methods used. Obviously, more research is needed to determine where the truth lies.24. Wh

22、at do we know about the universe from the first two paragraphs? A. It doesnt exist long.B. It becomes larger. C. It runs away.D. It causes the Big Bang.25. What makes the researchers in the first study think the universe is much younger? A. The speed of moving objects.B. The number of galaxies. C. T

23、he process of the universe evolution.D. The distance to other objects.26. How does Neelima Sehgal explain their method in the second study? A. By referring to a similar thing.B. By using hard scientific data. C. By introducing a new concept.D. By quoting an experts words.27. Which can be a suitable

24、title for the text? A. Whose method is better? B. Which result can you believe? C. How old is the universe?D. Why is the universe so old?CDid you know that the average child has heard the word “no” over 20,000 times before they turn the age of three? Ironically, it is also around this time that chil

25、dren begin to develop enough personal character to refuse to obey. The “terrible twos” are categorized by a lack of understanding. Somewhere between three and four, children begin to acquire the skills to reason. It is during this time they watch how other children and adults reason. If were not car

26、eful, the children will watch us model a world of “NOs”.By the time a person turns eighteen, how many times have they been told no? I havent found any studies that even attempted to track this statistic, but Im sure if the number is 20,000 by three, then at eighteen that number has multiplied. You c

27、an do the math.Anyway, I think I know why we say no. We say no to protect. We say no to direct. We say no to stop potential confusion. However, do we sometimes say no just for the sake of saying no? Do we say no because we have internalized (内在化) all of the “NOs” weve heard over the years and we fee

28、l it is finally our time to say no to someone else?The internalized no can damage the growth process of dreams in infancy as quickly as it can weaken a three-year-old. And we wonder why we run into people with big, un-accomplished dreams who have a bit of a chip on their shoulder. They have to take

29、on the 20,000 NOs. However, the thing that keeps them going is the possibility of the power of ONE YES!

Its a place where we all gather, no matter what our interests, and no matter what our ages, young and old, rich and poor.But how much longer will classic theaters remain open? Just like other

34、industries, movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic (流行病) and are going dark.
