根据以下资料，回答154-157题。　　At the first sight the planet Mars does not appear very welcome to any kind of life．It has very little oxygen and water, the temperature at night is below -50~Cand winds of 100 miles per hour cause severe dust storms．However, the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it some time in the past, and it is believed that there is enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melts．Although there is no life on the Mars now, some scientists think that there may have been some form of life long time ago．At that time, the planet had active volcanoes; the atmosphere was thicker and warmer; and there was water．In fact, in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth, where life exists.
　　Some people believe that the Mars could support life in the future if the right conditions were produced．The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Sun's heat in the planet's atmosphere．With warmth, water and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳), simple plants could begin to grow．These plants could slowly make the Mars more suitable for living．It is estimated that the whole process might take between 100,000 and 200,000 years．In the meantime, people could begin to live on the planet in special closed environments．They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on the Mars and the problems connected with living there.

D

解析：

：根据文章第一段描述，虽然火星现在看似不适宜生命存在，但有迹象显示过去火星上可能存在过生命。这是因为火星上的某些条件，如水、氧气等，与地球相似。因此，科学家认为过去火星上的条件可能与地球上的条件相似，有可能存在生命。选项D中的“conditions may have been similar to those on the Earth”与文章内容相符，是正确答案。
