People once widely believed that intelt life existed on Mars. The 19th-century discovery of what appeared to be geometric designs cut across the suce was taken as evidence. The lines were thought to have been a system of cs that had been built to irrigate the suce. It is now clear that 'cs'—perhaps the most spectacular geologic features of Mars—are natural valleys where ancient rivers once flowed. Another fragmented idea concerns the planet's seasonal changes in color. Once attributed to the rapid spread of some life-form, these shifts are now known to develop from the movement of fine dust in the atmosphere. By the close of the 20th century none of the many experiments conducted by spacecraft had ever found persuasive evidence of life. Nevertheless, speculation continued over the existence of some form. of life, in either the present or the past. In 1996 scientists discovered organic compounds and minerals in a meteorite(陨石), consisting of Martian rock, that collided with Earth around 11,000 B.C. These compounds suggest that Mars may have been inhabited by organisms more than three billion years ago. Why did people in the 19th century believe the existence of intelt life on Mars?

A.
Because the suce of Mars seemed to be geometric.
B.
Because the lines were drawn across the suce of the planet.
C.
Because a system of cs was thought to be there.
D.
Because it was the Martians that built the cs.
