But they have never seen one actually take shape — until now. Astronomers using the European Southern Observatory ’ s Very Large Telescope believe they have spotted a baby planet forming in deep space. “If we are correct, this is the first time we are seeing a planet forming inside its natal environment，” says astronomer Sascha Quanz, leader of the team that made the discovery. Scientists are excited because the images they have captured are a photographic first. But they may also have learned something new about how planets get started. If this dust cloud is a new planet, it’s a big one. HD 100546b, as the new formation is called, could grow much larger than Jupiter, the biggest planet in our solar system.Scientists think HD 100546b is a gas giant. Gas giants are huge planets like Jupiter and Saturn that are made mostly from gases like hydrogen and helium (氦)． HD 100546b is located 335 light years from Earth. A light year is the distance light can travel in one year, or about 6 trillion miles. So the baby planet may seem far, but compared with many other distant stars and galaxies in our universe, it’s actually relatively close. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is 100,000 light years wide. Before now, astronomers thought planets had to be very close to their stars during formation. But scientists estimate that HD 100546b is about 68 times farther from its star than Earth is from our sun. When the right mixture of cosmic (宇宙的) dust comes together near a young star, a planet begins to form. Slowly, the planet creates its own gravity. That allows the planet to pull material from the disk of gases and other matter floating around the star. 1．Which of the following is the largest in the solar system? A．HD 100546b. B．Jupiter C．Saturn. D．Earth. 2．Why is this discovery so special? A．Because a new member in the solar system was born. B．Because it can prove that there are other planets beyond the solar system. C．Because a gas giant is first seen being formed in deep space. D．Because the image of HD 100546b is first drawn by astronomers. 3．According to the passage, HD 100546b is________. A．the sister planet of Jupiter and Saturn B．first caught on camera by scientists C．about 68 light years away from its star 真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。 4 D．a gas giant that grows close to its star 4．How far is HD 100546b from Earth? A．About 335 trillion miles. B．About 2010 trillion miles. C．About 6 trillion miles. D．About 100,000 trillion miles. 5．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A．How a planet comes into being. B．How a young star pulls its planets. C．What a planet consists of. D．What effect the gravity has.
