32、ons are not necessarily only those of the earth. It was long held, for example, that life on the planet Jupiter (木星) is impossible because of its extreme cold, crushing gravity (重力) and poisonous atmosphere. But there is evidence that the giant planet is warmer below the outer, cold layers than was
33、first thought. The combination of gases in its atmosphere could produce organic (有机的) or preorganic (有机生物的) molecules. Since no one really knows all combinations of conditions under which life can evoke (产生), it is best to be conservative (保守的) about denying the existence of life on any planet.(分数:4

Aspirin was available in the United States during the 19th century.(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.DWhere there is no law, there can be no crimes. The first question, therefo
46、re, is: Are there any international crimes? And the answer is No-for several reasons. In the first place, there is no body of international law explaining what is meant by international crimes.
