XI. Read the passage carefully, then do the tasks. GIẢI THÍCH GIÚP MÌNH NHÉ Scientists say it could take at least 1,500 years before humans make contact with species of aliens, or for them to communicate with or find us. Astronomers from Cornell University in the USA combined two existing theories about the possibility of life existing on other planets to form a new equation. One of these theories is the Fermi Paradox described by physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950. This States that while billlons of Earth-like planets exist in our galaxy, not One has made contact with Earth yet. The other is the principle, which suggests that because there is life on Earth, it will typically exist on Earth-like planets throughout the universe. We havent heard from aliens yet, as space is a big place, but that doesnt mean no one is out there, study author and Cornell astronomy student Evan Solomonides said. According to Solomonides, extraterrestrials could have received signals from Earth. However, he suggests that ET would not have been able to decode them. He said they would need to decode the light waves into sounds and analyse 3,000 human languages to understand any messages. He said that signals from Earth have only reached about 8,500 stars and that the Milky Way galaxy alone contains 200 billion stars. He added: If we stop listening or looking, we may miss the signals, so we should keep looking.

A. Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).

1. Scientists say humans are unlikely to hear from aliens for at least 1,500 years.

2. Cornell astronomers examined 20 different theories on whether aliens exist. 3. One theory that was looked at was from a physicist.

4. Another theory said there is life on Earth so there will be on other planets.

5. Solomonides said aliens couldnt receive signals from Earth as space is a big place.

6. He said aliens would need to decode 3,000 languages to understand human message.

7. So far Earths broadcast signals have reached around 8,500 stars.

8. The researcher suggested we stop looking for alien life.

Improve Your Time-Managing Skills

 It is common for all of us to take more tasks than our desired potential. This can often result in stress and tiredness. Learn the art of sharing work with your partners based on their skills and abilities. Before the start of the day, make a list of tasks that need your immediate attention as unimportant tasks can consume much of your precious time. Some tasks need to be completed on that day only while other unimportant tasks could be carried forward to next day. In short, prioritize your tasks to focus on those that are more important. Carry a planner or notebook with you and list all the tasks that come to your mind. Make a simple “To Do” list before the start of the day, prioritize the tasks, and make sure that they are attainable. To better manage your time-management skills, you may think of making 3 lists: work, home, and personal. Stress often occurs when we accept more work than our ability. The result is that our body starts feeling tired which can affect our productivity. Instead, share tasks with your partners and make sure to leave some time for relaxation. Most of the successful men and women have one thing in common. They start their day early as it gives them time to sit, think, and plan their day. When you get up early, you are more calm, creative, and clear-headed. As the day progresses, your energy levels start going down, which affects your productivity and your performance as well.
