The Big Bang

The Big Bang Model is a theory that tries to
explain the evolution of the universe. According to this
theory, at some time between ten and twenty billion
years ago, all matter and energy were compressed into
a small ball only a few kilometers in diameter. It was,
in effect, one atom that contained all the components
of the entire universe in the form of pure energy.
Then, at a moment in the time that astronomers
refer to as t = 0 (t equals zero), the ball exploded,
hurling energy into space. Expansion occurred. As the
energy cooled, most of it became matter in the form of
protons, neutrons, and electrons. These original
particles combined to form hydrogen and helium, and
continued to expand. This expansion of matter formed
galaxies with stars and planets.
01.The text states that galaxies were formed:
a) ten billion years ago.
b) fifteen billion years ago.
c) as a result of the expansion of matter.
d) twenty billion year ago.
06.Fill in the blanks with these words from the text:
COOLED - HURLING - PARTICLES -
OCCURRED - COMPONENTS - ENTIRE -
PURE - BECAME - A FEW - REFER TO
1.Oxygen and hydrogen are the .............. of water.
2.Scientists say that our planet .............. very cold
during the glacial era.

............... building.
4.The sun in continuously ................. its rays to our
planet.
5.The explosion of the H-bomb over Hiroshima
.................. in 1945.
6.Scientists .................... this theory as the Big Bang.

02.The text implies that:
a) Energy and matter are the same thing.
b) Protons, neutrons, and electrons are not matter.
c) energy can be transformed into matter.
d) galaxies stopped expanding when energy cooled.
7.Her soup ................ while she was talking on the
telefone.
8.There are ................. other theories about the origin
of the universe.

03.The name Big Bang describes:
a) the explosion of a ball of compressed energy.
b) matter in the form of neutrons, protons, and
electrons.
c) the combination of hydrogen and helium to form
galaxies.
d) the hurling of energy into space.
04.The Big Bang is a model because:
a) it gives a conclusive explanation for the formation 3.( ) t= 0 happened between 10 and 20 billion years ago.
of galaxies with stars and planets.
b) it explains why hydrogen and helium combine.
c) astronomers use it to find time zero.
d) it tries to explain the formation of the universe.
9.That fountain is a source of ................... water.
10.Water is formed by two ................... of hydrogen
and one of oxygen.
Responda Verdadeiro ou Falso:
1.( ) The universe was formed due to a big explosion.
2.( ) It is not possible for energy to became matter.
4.( ) At t= 0 there was only energy compressed into a
ball.
4.( ) Hydrogen and helium appeared after the Big Bang.

05.The sentence that best summarizes the text is:

a) the Big Bang theory does not explain the evolution
of the universe.
b) According to the Big Bang Theory, an explosion
caused the formation of the
universe.
c) the universe is made of hydrogen and helium.
d) the universe is more than ten billion years old.
