 阅读下面材料, 从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

 An international team of scientists says it has discovered two new"super-Earth" type planets about 100 light-years away, one of which may be suitable for life. 

 Unlike any of the planets in our solar system, the nearly 1, 600 known super-Earths are larger than Earth, but lighter than icy planets like Uranus and Neptune. 

 Researchers at Belgium's University of Liège said that they found another one while using Earth-based telescopes to check the existence(存在) of a different planet first discovered by a NASA satellite in the same solar system. 

NASA's satellite found planet LP 890-9b, which is about 30% larger than Earth and orbits its sun in just 2. 7 days. ULi ège researchers used their telescopes in Spain to take a closer look at the planet. That's when the stargazers(天文学家) discovered another planet, LP890-9c, which is 40% larger than Earth and takes 8. 5 days to orbit its sun. 

 Francisco Pozuelos, a researcher, said that the planet could be suitable to life though being a 3. 7 million miles from its sun. Earth, by comparison, is located over 93 million miles away from our sun. "Although this planet orbits very close to its star, at a distance about 10 times shorter than that of Mercury around our Sun, the amount of stellar irradiation(照射) it receives is still low, and could allow the presence of liquid water on the planet's surface, if it has enough air, " Pozuelos said. "This is because the star LP 890-9 is about 6. 5 times smaller than the Sun and has a surface temperature half that of our star. "

 根据对话情景,从方框中选择恰当的句子将对话补充完整,其中有一项的多余的。

Does it seem that the things you say often cause offense(冒犯) ? If so, maybe people think that your English isn't polite. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}!

◆"I'm afraid I can't" VS "NO."

It can be difficult to refuse an invitation from a friend. Simply saying "No." would sound impolite. The next time you have to refuse an invitation, you can say, "I'm afraid I can't. 

◆ {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

If someone does something you don't like, would you like him to stop? To get the good result, instead of shouting "Stop talking on your phone in the cinema!", ask him politely by saying "Would you mind not using your phone in the cinema, please?"

◆"Can you pass me. . . ?" VS "Give me..."

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}, so it's sometimes difficult to get what you want without causing frustration(懊恼). Change words that sound like commands(命令), such as "Give me the newspaper." with a request like "Can you pass me the newspaper?"

◆"Could you give me five minutes?" VS "Go away."

You're really busy at work, but your co-worker needs your help. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, just saying "Go away." is certainly not proper. Instead, keep everyone happy by using the words "Could you give me five minutes?"

A. "Would you mind . . .?" VS "Stop it!" 

B. People don't like being told what to do 

C. "Could you spare me…?" VS "Don't do it!"

D. Learn how to be polite with this great guide

E. When you're busy and can't do anything else
