What is space tourism?
Space tourism is space travel for leisure purposes (休闲目的). What was once only a dream—described in books such as Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality.
Futurologists (未来学家) are scientists who try to predict (预测) what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. Futurologists also considered the possibility that, in the 21st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions have come true yet—but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are a possibility in the years to come.
Space Adventures is currently the only company to send people into space. Space Adventures worked with the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to offer flights for the world’s first private space explorers. Each person paid over $20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.
Following several successful trips into space, more companies are now thinking about the possibility of sending tourists into space. In order to make it cheaper, suborbital (亚轨道的) space travel is a choice for many companies, including Virgin Galactic. Passengers would go to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3—6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars, then come back down to earth. This costs about $200,000 per person.
While it could be an amazing experience, there are some problems with space tourism. Many people believe that it could make global warming (全球变暖) worse and it is not good for the ozone layer (臭氧层). What’s more, space travel is only really for the rich people. There are still millions of people worldwide who couldn’t pay for it.
1.Which book described space tourism?
2.When did the first man land on the moon?
3.Which company can send people into space?
4.What can people do with suborbital space travel?
5.What is your opinion on space travel? And why?
请阅读下面的一篇短文,根据所提供的信息完成下面 5 道小题。
Visiting outer space is still a far dream for anyone who isn’t an astronaut, but a day trip to the stars is already for people to order!
A new company, Space Perspective, is planning tests with spacemen and up to eight passengers. It has big plans to run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024. If successful, a capsule (太空舱) tied to a balloon the size of a football field.
They will move slowly upwards to the side of space. The expensive flight, which will take six hours, is likely to cost over £100,000, no special clothing or training are needed.
One problem may be the method of landing back on the Earth. The balloon moves back down from space until it falls down in the sea. Passengers, spacemen, capsule and balloon are then gotten back by ship.
Now Neptune faces competition from the Stratollite, a balloon being developed by a company called World View Enterprises. The advantage of the balloon is that it will be cheaper than a space plane or rocket.
Space travel may soon be a reality, but how visitors get there is still a very open question.
1.What’s the big plan of Space Perspective?
2.Who will travel in Neptune according the plan?
3.How much does the flight cost?
4.Where will the balloon fall down after moving back from space?
5.What’s the advantage of the balloon over the space plane or rocket?

Do you want to be an astronaut in the future? Every year on April 24, it’s Space Day of China. It’s a day to celebrate the country’s growth in space exploration (探索). The successful manned space missions (任务) are a big part of it.
What problems do astronauts face?
In space, astronauts face many problems. There is little gravity (重力) there, which affects their bodies. Also, being away from family and friends and staying in a tiny spaceship for a long time can make them feel sad or stressed out. What’s more, if something goes wrong on their mission all of a sudden, they have to work out how to fix it under huge pressure. That’s why astronauts have to be smart, strong, and ready for any challenge before they can go to space.
How are astronauts trained?
To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely, “Eight types, including over 200 subjects of training, are set,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system. Apart from physical training, it also includes basic science knowledge and mock (模拟) missions. Before astronauts can go to space, they train like this for at least three and a half years.
One of the hardest parts of the training for astronauts is the underwater training. This helps them get ready for the weightless environment in space. Huang explained that astronauts wear diving suits (潜水服) that weigh more than 100 kilograms and stay underwater for six hours at a time.
1.What is the purpose (目的) of Space Day of China?
2.What astronauts should be like before they can go to space?
3.How many years should astronauts be trained before they can go space?
4.Which is one of the hardest parts of training for astronauts?
5.As a student, how can be an astronaut when you grow up in the future?

Gui Haichao is a university professor. His dream of flying to space has now come true.
Gui grew up in an ordinary (普通的) family in southwest China’s Yunnan Province. His interest in space began at the age of 17. One day, when he was listening to the radio, he got the news of Yang Liwei’s historic manned spaceflight for China in 2003.
With the dream in his heart, Gui started to train hard. However, the training was challenging for him at first. “I felt quite uncomfortable after the training,” said the 36-year-old professor. “To improve my ability, I added exercise after the training,” said Gui during an interview.
In May 2018, China started choosing astronauts for the space station project. Besides astronauts, they also needed space engineers and scientists. Gui was chosen as a scientist.
Gui is a sports fan who finds joy in long-distance running, cycling and swimming. “Every time we see Professor Gui, he is running in the sports field,” said Su Wenjie, one of the astronaut’s students.
In the eyes of people around him, Gui is optimistic (乐观的). Even in the face of failure, he quickly calms down and continues his work.
His classmate and roommate Wang Yue said that every night before going to bed, Gui would keep a diary.
1.When did Gui Haichao start to be interested in space?
2.Why did Gui Haichao add exercise after the training?
3.What did Gui do in the space station project?

China will send a probe (探测器) to the moon next year. The probe is called Chang’e 6, and its job is to collect samples (样本) from the moon’s far side, which is a part we don’t know much about.
The Chang’e 6 project is going well, and scientists will use a special satellite (人造卫星) called Queqiao 2 to help the probe communicate with the Earth.
The Chang’e 6 probe has four parts: an orbiter (轨道飞行器), a lander, an ascender (上升器), and a re-entry module (返回舱). They will work together to do the mission (任务).
If everything goes according to plan, it will touch down in the South Pole-Aitken Basin (盆地) on the moon. There, it will collect soil (土壤) and rocks. This is exciting because it will become the first time for man to get samples from the moon’s far side.
China started its moon program in 2004 and has already sent five probes to the moon since 2007. The most recent one, Chang’e 5, brought back moon rocks and soil in 2020. Now, they want to see if volcanoes (火山) on the far side stopped about 4 billion years ago.
China’s rover, Yutu 2, has been working on the moon for nearly five years, making it the world’s longest-operating moon rover.

China launched (发射) Shenzhou XIX, its 14th manned spaceship, on Wednesday morning. The spaceship took off from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the Gobi Desert in China.
The big rocket was 20 stories tall and went up into the sky at 4:27 a. m. Inside the rocket were three astronauts:Senior Colonel Cai Xuzhe, Lieutenant Colonel Song Lingdong, and Lieutenant Colonel Wang Haoze.
They will fly for about six and a half hours to reach the space station Tiangong. It is 400 kilometers above the Earth. Their spaceship will connect (连接) to the front part of the space station module called Tianhe.
The Shenzhou XIX team will meet the Shenzhou XVIII team, who have been in space for six months. They will stay together for four days, and then the Shenzhou XVIII team will go back to Earth.
The Shenzhou XIX team will be the eighth group to live on the space station. The three astronauts will do many things in space, like doing science experiments, spacewalks, and fixing things outside the space station. They will also teach classes about science from space.
Their work will help us learn more about how things work in space, like gravity, materials, medicine, spaceships, and life.
Cai Xuzhe has been to space before this mission. For Song Lingdong and Wang Haoze, this is their first time in space.
Wang Haoze is only 34 years old and is the third Chinese woman in space, after Liu Yang and Wang Yaping. She is also the first female spaceflight engineer.

I’m Ling Jianhao. When I was young, I always wondered what were in the sky. I wished that one day I could fly into space. I became more interested in space after the astronaut Wang Yaping gave a science lesson from space to us. At that time, I was sure I wanted to be an astronaut when I grew up.
To make my dream come true, I kept studying hard all the time. I tried to get good grades in all subjects. And I spent most of my free time reading books about science and watching TV programs on space. To have a strong body, I got up at 5:00 a. m. and ran for an hour every morning, even in cold winter. On weekends. I took swimming and mountain climbing classes.
Unluckily, after a physical exam, a doctor told me there were some problems with my body. I couldn’t be an astronaut! It was the worst news I heard. I was very sad. In the evening, my mother came to my room. “Dear,” she said, “we never know what will happen in the future. I believe you will go into the space although you are not healthy enough Everything is possible. Think about Deng Qingming.”
Deng Qingming is fifty-six years old. People doesn’t know the old astronaut until Shenzhou XV sends him onto Chinese space station with two other astronauts successfully. He keeps training (训练) for twenty-four years, but he never once thinks of giving up (放弃). At 23:08. on November 29th, 2022. Deng’s dream finally came true.

Researchers from China Agricultural University tested five species of bacteria (细菌) on a lunar soil (月球土壤) material. Within 10 to 21 days, three of the bacteria species had doubled (加倍) their amount of phosphorus (磷), an important element (元素) for plant growth.
“The study results is important for future long-term stays on the moon,” the study’s lead researcher, Sun Zhencai, told Xinhua. Earth bacteria may help astronauts (宇航员) make better use of lunar resources, such as creating lunar greenhouses. In their follow-up research, they hope to experiment with real lunar soil samples and grow crops like rice, corn and potatoes.
In the Shenzhou XI, astronauts had a harvest of lettuce (生菜). Later, they have successfully grown wheat, rice and thale cress (拟南芥), according to CCTV News.
The most recent visitors to China’s space station, the Shenzhou XVII astronauts have grown lettuce, scallion (葱) and cherry tomato there. These are not only provide astronauts with food but also more oxygen and water. We can call it “space gardens”.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
A group of scientists discovered a gas called phosphine (磷化氢) on Venus (金星). That means there may be living things on the planet, which made many people start to imagine the talk between aliens and humans. A reporter from Washington Post wrote a letter to people of Earth on behalf of (代表) the citizens on Venus.
Attention, People of Earth
Fine. The big secret is out. Many of your finest scientists have discovered there is life tens of millions of miles away—here, on the beautiful planet of Venus. Congratulations! However, we have a polite request: Please stay away.
We’re serious. No spacecrafts to Venus, no tasks, no visits. If we wake up one morning and see so many of you people wandering around in spacesuits, we’re going to be really upset.
We don’t want to be impolite. It’s just that we’re shocked by what you’ve got going on down there. Earth looks like a mess. You’ve got health problems, environmental pollution, traffic jams, political fights, etc. No wonder so many of you want to leave Earth for another planet.
We know you’d like it here. That’s what frightens us. You’d all move to Venus at once. If we start having you all up here, pretty soon, the Martians (火星人) and Jupiterians (木星人) are going to come, too. But we can’t handle so much.
Venus is not Earth 2. You had better ____________ because _______________________________________.
God bless you!
Sincerely,
Venusians

Returning home is usually happy and exciting. Is it the same for astronauts (宇航员) returning from space (太空)?
On June 17, the Shenzhou XII manned (载人的) spacecraft went into space. It took three Chinese astronauts Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo to China’s Tiangong space station.
Three months later, on September 17, the astronauts came back to Earth in a return capsule (返回舱). The trip home wasn’t easy. Let’s see how it went.
It was a hot journey! When the spacecraft entered Earth’s atmosphere (大气层), its surface — temperature rose to more than 2,000 degrees! This is because the spacecraft rubbed (摩擦) against the air. How could the astronauts stay safe? A special material (材料) is used to stop the heat (热量) from getting inside. “Real gold fears no fire,” Nie joked.
Radio blackouts (黑障) happen when there is too much heat. This means the astronauts could not talk with the ground. It didn’t last long—just several minutes. During this time, with the help of radar (雷达), scientists on Earth still knew where the spacecraft was.
When the spacecraft was about 10 kilometers above the ground, it prepared (准备) to land (降落). It moved at 200 meters per second. That’s twice the speed of high-speed trains! It was too fast to directly (直接) land. Parachutes (降落伞) were used to slow down the landing.

On June 5th, China launched (发射) the three-person Shenzhou XIV, which is the third crew (乘组) for the country’s space station project. The astronauts will work with the ground team to finish the building of the Tiangong Space Station. The crew arrived at Tiangong on Sunday afternoon.
Liu Yang, the first Chinese woman in outer space, said on Saturday in Jiuquan, that she and two other astronauts—Chen Dong and Cai Xuzhe—would be very busy during their stay, and they were going to do their job while Tiangong Space Station was changing its shape. With the help of the ground team, it would change itself nine times.
At the same time, the astronauts would also need to prepare for the arrival of the Shenzhou XV crew and Tianzhou 5 ship near the end of their journey, Liu added.
“In addition, we will use a new hatch (舱门) and a new small robotic arm to do spacewalks. We will perform a large number of scientific experiments and also offer educational activities for pupils online,” she said. “This is also the first time that Chinese astronauts will celebrate our National Day in space.”
In an interview with China Central Television before they flew to the space, Liu said she had talked to her daughter and son about her six-month trip.
“I explained why their mom needed to take part in this great project and why I would be away from home for half a year. I also told them what, they needed to do during this period of time. At first, they were not so happy about my leaving, but they finally said later that they understood,” she said.
“They told me that they wanted me to take as many pictures as possible so they could share the beauty of space with their classmates.”

How would you like to live in space someday? Some people already do--on a space station. The station circles the Earth 2230 miles above us. It moves around our planet at over 17,000 miles per hour.
Astronauts from different countries have called the space station home since the year 2000. Groups of three people take turns living on the station. They travel between their space home and the Earth on the space shuttle(航天飞机). What's it like to live on the space station? “It's like taking a four-month camping trip--in space!" says John Charles, a NASA scientist. The members of the station crew (工作人员) eat dried food, bathe with wet cloths and sleep in sleeping bags. They have to tie the sleeping bags to a wall before they sleep. If they don't do that, they will float(漂浮)around all night.
The weightlessness (失重) of space can be fun. The crew members like to jump up and down.
They also like to play catch in slow motion.
There's work to be done, too. The space station is a busy place. The station's crew members do science experiments. They also spend a lot of their time adding new parts to the station. The space shuttle brings the parts. The astronauts sometimes make space walks outside the station to connect the new parts. Building a house can take less than a year. Building the space station will take at least eight years!

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars,” said Les Brown, a famous American speaker and writer. This idea is exciting and fits well with China’s journey to space.
China started its space journey 54 years ago with a satellite named Dong Fang Hong I. Since then, China has been working hard to learn more about space. Now, with Shenzhou-19, China is going even higher in its space travels.
Shenzhou-19 is a special space mission (使命) that happened in 2024. It took three astronauts to space and connected with a big space home called Tianhe. There, they did many science jobs and tested new ideas.
This mission is a big deal because it shows how much China has learned about going to space. It’s not just about flying. It’s about learning new things and finding out more about the world outside our planet.
1.When did Chinese people begin to explore the space?
2.What did the scientists do in Tianhe?
3.Why is this mission a big deal?
4.What do you think of China’s journey to space? (Write 30 words or more.)
In the future, people may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship! Today’s spaceships are fine for getting things into space, but they are not so good at travelling long distances. These spaceships burn chemical fuels (燃料) and they are very expensive. Scientists say that a water-powered spaceship could make the trip to Mars much cheaper. The idea is just in the planning stages (阶段) now, but scientists think such a spaceship could be developed soon.
The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine (发动机). Regular engines push spaceships by burning fuel. The water engine will use steam, created by solar panels (太阳能板) that heat water to a high temperature. Of course, the spaceship will have to carry a lot of water for the long trip to Mars.
Today’s spaceships could not carry that much water. But scientists think that a spaceship blown up like a balloon (气球) will be able to.
One US company has already developed a spaceship like this. These spaceships are made of a strong material (材料) . Two of them have already been sent up into space, using rockets and then later filled with air. “Balloon” spaceships could be very large and carry enough water for a long trip. With the “Balloon” spaceships, enough water could be carried to power (驱动) the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even get to take a hot bath!
Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost. The “Balloon” spaceship uses water to push it through space and costs about one thirtieth of a normal spaceship. Such savings naturally encourage continued research into “Balloon” spaceships and water engines. If these scientists are correct, we may soon be on our way to Mars in a spaceship powered by water.
1.What’s the key to the water-powered spaceship?
2.According to scientists, how can the future spaceship carry much water?
3.What can water do for the spaceship trip?
4.What do scientists think of the water-powered spaceship?
5.What’s the main idea of this passage?
Think about the distance you traveled in the last six months of your life. About how many miles did you go? Lucid went quite a distance. On March 22, 1996, she started a journey. She traveled 188 days, 4 hours, and 14 seconds in total. This is a little over six months. So what distance did Lucid travel? She went 75.2 million miles!
How could Lucid go so far? How could she journey so fast? Lucid was an American astronaut and she was in space. She lived on a space station. The space station was the Russian space station Mir. She lived and worked with two Russian astronauts.
On Mir, it was hard for Lucid to know what day it was. Why? Mir did not stay in one place. It orbited the Earth. It went around the Earth. Mir’s orbit meant that darkness did not mean the day was over. Darkness fell many times during a 24-hour period. Darkness fell about every 45 minutes. Lucid did something to help her remember what day it was. She wore pink socks on every seventh day. The pink socks reminded(提醒) Lucid about something else, too. The pink socks helped Lucid remember that Jell-O would be served for dinner. On Mir, Jell-O was a special treat. It was only served on Sunday.
Lucid worked hard to deserve the honor of working on Mir. She went to school for a long time. She was one of the first six women to be accepted into the astronaut-training program. She flew on several American missions. When accepted for Mir, she had to learn Russian in less than 18 months. On Mir, Lucid conducted many experiments. One experiment she conducted was with wheat. Lucid grew wheat. Growing plants in space was important, because green plants could provide oxygen and food for space travelers.
1.When did Lucid start the journey?
2.How many miles did Lucid travel in this journey?
3.Lucid lived on a space station, didn’t she?
4.How did Lucid remember what day it was?
5.Why was growing plants in space important?
6.Do you want to live on Mir? Why or why not?

When Dobek was a kid, she often watched the moon and the stars in the sky with her father outside their house. That made her take great interest in the space and universe (宇宙).
Dobek was in Grade Eight at East Prairie Elementary School. She was good at making things by herself. At school, she designed (设计) a space station for travelling to Mars. And she handed in a five-minute video to take part in the competition named the National Generation Beyond Challenge.
“My design will keep the astronauts safe and make sure they will feel comfortable,” she said in her video.
Dobek had the idea of building the Mars Storage Station to store plenty of supplies (物资). In the video, she described how her space station worked. Dobek also designed physical activities for the astronauts. In her space station, astronauts can choose their exercise machines and virtual (虚拟的) environment. It was much easier for them to watch downloaded shows and even places on Earth such as their homes.
Dobek said that she began her project by doing some scientific research four years ago. She read through many books and collected (收集) lots of information online. After getting good preparation, she only spent over a month designing the space station. She even worked on it on weekends.
When Andrea Smeeton, her teacher, watched the video and her design before they sent it, she said she had a feeling Dobek could win. “I don’t know why but maybe it was the excitement and the details (细节) in the project,” Smeeton said. “I have taught for a long time and many of my students are talented but this project was just very creative and it gave hope to a space programme.”
When Dobek won the competition, she texted her teacher about the good news. Smeeton was so excited that she cried in tears.
“I want to tell other kids to follow their dreams,” Dobek said. “Whenever they want to do, they should kind of just push for it. They should always try their best.”
1.What was Dobek interested in?
2.Why did Dobek hand in a five-minute video?
3.How can astronauts do physical activities according to Dobek’s design?
4.From Dobek’s successful experience, which do you think is more important, working hard or working creatively? Why? (Please give two reasons. )

What is space tourism?
Space tourism is space travel for leisure purposes (休闲目的). What was once only a dream—described in books such as Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality.
Futurologists (未来学家) are scientists who try to predict (预测) what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. Futurologists also considered the possibility that, in the 21st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions have come true yet—but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are a possibility in the years to come.
Space Adventures is currently the only company to send people into space. Space Adventures worked with the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to offer flights for the world’s first private space explorers. Each person paid over $20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.
Following several successful trips into space, more companies are now thinking about the possibility of sending tourists into space. In order to make it cheaper, suborbital (亚轨道的) space travel is a choice for many companies, including Virgin Galactic. Passengers would go to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3—6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars, then come back down to earth. This costs about $200,000 per person.
While it could be an amazing experience, there are some problems with space tourism. Many people believe that it could make global warming (全球变暖) worse and it is not good for the ozone layer (臭氧层). What’s more, space travel is only really for the rich people. There are still millions of people worldwide who couldn’t pay for it.
1.Which book described space tourism?
2.When did the first man land on the moon?
3.Which company can send people into space?
4.What can people do with suborbital space travel?
5.What is your opinion on space travel? And why?
【答案】1.2001: A Space Odyssey. 2.In 1969. 3.Space Adventures. 4.They can go to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3-6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars. 5.I think space travel will be difficult to popularize. Because the cost is too high.
【导语】本文主要介绍了太空旅行的发展以及带来的问题。

5.开放性试题,结合实际,答案合理即可。参考答案为I think space travel will be difficult to popularize. Because the cost is too high.
请阅读下面的一篇短文,根据所提供的信息完成下面 5 道小题。
Visiting outer space is still a far dream for anyone who isn’t an astronaut, but a day trip to the stars is already for people to order!
A new company, Space Perspective, is planning tests with spacemen and up to eight passengers. It has big plans to run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024. If successful, a capsule (太空舱) tied to a balloon the size of a football field.
They will move slowly upwards to the side of space. The expensive flight, which will take six hours, is likely to cost over £100,000, no special clothing or training are needed.
One problem may be the method of landing back on the Earth. The balloon moves back down from space until it falls down in the sea. Passengers, spacemen, capsule and balloon are then gotten back by ship.
Now Neptune faces competition from the Stratollite, a balloon being developed by a company called World View Enterprises. The advantage of the balloon is that it will be cheaper than a space plane or rocket.
Space travel may soon be a reality, but how visitors get there is still a very open question.
1.What’s the big plan of Space Perspective?
2.Who will travel in Neptune according the plan?
3.How much does the flight cost?
4.Where will the balloon fall down after moving back from space?
5.What’s the advantage of the balloon over the space plane or rocket?
【答案】1.To run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024. 2.Spacemen and eight passengers. 3.Over £100, 000. 4.In the sea. 5.It will be cheaper.
【导语】本文主要介绍了有公司现在研究可以进行太空一日游的机器,或可使得人们去太空中观光旅游成为可能。
1.根据“It has big plans to run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024.”可知,Space Perspective公司的大计划就是到2024年在美国各地运营多达500个航班。故填To run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024。
2.根据“A new company, Space Perspective, is planning tests with spacemen and up to eight passengers.”可知,航员和八名乘客将在海王星旅行,故填Spacemen and eight passengers。
3.根据“The expensive flight, which will take six hours, is likely to cost over £100,000, no special clothing or training are needed.”可知,这趟航班的费用超过100000英镑,故填Over £100, 000。
4.根据“The balloon moves back down from space until it falls down in the sea.”可知,气球从太空返回,降落到海里。故填In the sea。
5.根据“The advantage of the balloon is that it will be cheaper than a space plane or rocket.”可知,乘坐气球的优点是它比太空飞机或火箭便宜。故填It will be cheaper.

Do you want to be an astronaut in the future? Every year on April 24, it’s Space Day of China. It’s a day to celebrate the country’s growth in space exploration (探索). The successful manned space missions (任务) are a big part of it.
What problems do astronauts face?
In space, astronauts face many problems. There is little gravity (重力) there, which affects their bodies. Also, being away from family and friends and staying in a tiny spaceship for a long time can make them feel sad or stressed out. What’s more, if something goes wrong on their mission all of a sudden, they have to work out how to fix it under huge pressure. That’s why astronauts have to be smart, strong, and ready for any challenge before they can go to space.
How are astronauts trained?
To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely, “Eight types, including over 200 subjects of training, are set,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system. Apart from physical training, it also includes basic science knowledge and mock (模拟) missions. Before astronauts can go to space, they train like this for at least three and a half years.
One of the hardest parts of the training for astronauts is the underwater training. This helps them get ready for the weightless environment in space. Huang explained that astronauts wear diving suits (潜水服) that weigh more than 100 kilograms and stay underwater for six hours at a time.
1.What is the purpose (目的) of Space Day of China?
2.What astronauts should be like before they can go to space?
3.How many years should astronauts be trained before they can go space?
4.Which is one of the hardest parts of training for astronauts?
5.As a student, how can be an astronaut when you grow up in the future?
【答案】1.To celebrate the country’s growth in space exploration. 2.They should be smart, strong, and ready for any challenge before they can go to space. 3.At least three and a half years. 4.The underwater training. 5.I/We should study hard, read more books and play sports to have a healthy body.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
A group of scientists discovered a gas called phosphine (磷化氢) on Venus (金星). That means there may be living things on the planet, which made many people start to imagine the talk between aliens and humans. A reporter from Washington Post wrote a letter to people of Earth on behalf of (代表) the citizens on Venus.
Attention, People of Earth
Fine. The big secret is out. Many of your finest scientists have discovered there is life tens of millions of miles away—here, on the beautiful planet of Venus. Congratulations! However, we have a polite request: Please stay away.
We’re serious. No spacecrafts to Venus, no tasks, no visits. If we wake up one morning and see so many of you people wandering around in spacesuits, we’re going to be really upset.
We don’t want to be impolite. It’s just that we’re shocked by what you’ve got going on down there. Earth looks like a mess. You’ve got health problems, environmental pollution, traffic jams, political fights, etc. No wonder so many of you want to leave Earth for another planet.
We know you’d like it here. That’s what frightens us. You’d all move to Venus at once. If we start having you all up here, pretty soon, the Martians (火星人) and Jupiterians (木星人) are going to come, too. But we can’t handle so much.
Venus is not Earth 2. You had better ____________ because _______________________________________.
God bless you!
Sincerely,
Venusians

5.根据“If we start having you all up here, pretty soon, the Martians and Jupiterians are going to come, too. But we can’t handle so much.”可知,如果我们开始让你们都来这里,很快,火星人和木星人也会来。但我们不能处理这么多。故填Martians and Jupiterians will also come and Venus can’t handle it.
6.根据“Earth looks like a mess. You’ve got health problems, environmental pollution, traffic jams, political fights, etc”可知,因为地球上有许多问题,所以金星人建议地球人解决自己的问题或改善自己的星球,因为只有一个地球,即地球是你唯一的家。根据“However, we have a polite request: Please stay away”可知,金星人建议地球人要远离他们,因为他们不想面对跟地球同样的问题,故填stay on Earth;it is your own planet and you need to solve your own problems there。
Returning home is usually happy and exciting. Is it the same for astronauts (宇航员) returning from space (太空)?
On June 17, the Shenzhou XII manned (载人的) spacecraft went into space. It took three Chinese astronauts Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo to China’s Tiangong space station.
Three months later, on September 17, the astronauts came back to Earth in a return capsule (返回舱). The trip home wasn’t easy. Let’s see how it went.
It was a hot journey! When the spacecraft entered Earth’s atmosphere (大气层), its surface — temperature rose to more than 2,000 degrees! This is because the spacecraft rubbed (摩擦) against the air. How could the astronauts stay safe? A special material (材料) is used to stop the heat (热量) from getting inside. “Real gold fears no fire,” Nie joked.
Radio blackouts (黑障) happen when there is too much heat. This means the astronauts could not talk with the ground. It didn’t last long—just several minutes. During this time, with the help of radar (雷达), scientists on Earth still knew where the spacecraft was.
When the spacecraft was about 10 kilometers above the ground, it prepared (准备) to land (降落). It moved at 200 meters per second. That’s twice the speed of high-speed trains! It was too fast to directly (直接) land. Parachutes (降落伞) were used to slow down the landing.
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
1.How many astronauts went to the Tiangong space station?
2.How long did they stay at the space station?
3.When did they come back home?
4.Was it a hot journey for the astronauts?
5.What does “radio blackouts” mean?
【答案】1.Three 2.Three months 3.On September 17 4.Yes, it was. 5.It means the astronauts couldn’t talk with the ground.
【分析】文章是一篇新闻报道。内容是神舟十二号载人飞船的宇航员是如何乘坐返回舱返回地球。
1.根据第二段“It took three Chinese astronauts Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo to China’s Tiangong space station.”可知三名中国宇航员被送往中国天宫空间站。故填Three。
2.根据第三段“Three months later, on September 17, the astronauts came back to Earth in a return capsule (返回舱).”可知三个月后,宇航员乘坐返回舱返回地球。故填Three months。

How would you like to live in space someday? Some people already do--on a space station. The station circles the Earth 2230 miles above us. It moves around our planet at over 17,000 miles per hour.
Astronauts from different countries have called the space station home since the year 2000. Groups of three people take turns living on the station. They travel between their space home and the Earth on the space shuttle(航天飞机). What's it like to live on the space station? “It's like taking a four-month camping trip--in space!" says John Charles, a NASA scientist. The members of the station crew (工作人员) eat dried food, bathe with wet cloths and sleep in sleeping bags. They have to tie the sleeping bags to a wall before they sleep. If they don't do that, they will float(漂浮)around all night.
The weightlessness (失重) of space can be fun. The crew members like to jump up and down.
They also like to play catch in slow motion.
There's work to be done, too. The space station is a busy place. The station's crew members do science experiments. They also spend a lot of their time adding new parts to the station. The space shuttle brings the parts. The astronauts sometimes make space walks outside the station to connect the new parts. Building a house can take less than a year. Building the space station will take at least eight years!
1.What have astronauts called the space station since 2000?
2.What is John Charles?

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars,” said Les Brown, a famous American speaker and writer. This idea is exciting and fits well with China’s journey to space.
China started its space journey 54 years ago with a satellite named Dong Fang Hong I. Since then, China has been working hard to learn more about space. Now, with Shenzhou-19, China is going even higher in its space travels.
Shenzhou-19 is a special space mission (使命) that happened in 2024. It took three astronauts to space and connected with a big space home called Tianhe. There, they did many science jobs and tested new ideas.
This mission is a big deal because it shows how much China has learned about going to space. It’s not just about flying. It’s about learning new things and finding out more about the world outside our planet.
1.When did Chinese people begin to explore the space?
2.What did the scientists do in Tianhe?
3.Why is this mission a big deal?
4.What do you think of China’s journey to space? (Write 30 words or more.)

In the future, people may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship! Today’s spaceships are fine for getting things into space, but they are not so good at travelling long distances. These spaceships burn chemical fuels (燃料) and they are very expensive. Scientists say that a water-powered spaceship could make the trip to Mars much cheaper. The idea is just in the planning stages (阶段) now, but scientists think such a spaceship could be developed soon.
The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine (发动机). Regular engines push spaceships by burning fuel. The water engine will use steam, created by solar panels (太阳能板) that heat water to a high temperature. Of course, the spaceship will have to carry a lot of water for the long trip to Mars.
Today’s spaceships could not carry that much water. But scientists think that a spaceship blown up like a balloon (气球) will be able to.
One US company has already developed a spaceship like this. These spaceships are made of a strong material (材料) . Two of them have already been sent up into space, using rockets and then later filled with air. “Balloon” spaceships could be very large and carry enough water for a long trip. With the “Balloon” spaceships, enough water could be carried to power (驱动) the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even get to take a hot bath!
Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost. The “Balloon” spaceship uses water to push it through space and costs about one thirtieth of a normal spaceship. Such savings naturally encourage continued research into “Balloon” spaceships and water engines. If these scientists are correct, we may soon be on our way to Mars in a spaceship powered by water.
1.What’s the key to the water-powered spaceship?
2.According to scientists, how can the future spaceship carry much water?
3.What can water do for the spaceship trip?
4.What do scientists think of the water-powered spaceship?
5.What’s the main idea of this passage?
【答案】1.The engine. 2.A spaceship blown up like a balloon will be able to. 3.It can power the engines, grow food and let the people on the spaceship get to take a hot bath. 4.It costs less./It is less expensive./It is cheaper./Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost. 5.In the future, people may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了将来我们可能乘坐水力宇宙飞船去火星的构想。
1.根据“The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine”可知水力宇宙飞船的关键是发动机,故填The engine.
2.根据“But scientists think that a spaceship blown up like a balloon will be able to”可知科学家认为一个像气球一样吹起来的宇宙飞船将能够承载许多水,故填A spaceship blown up like a balloon will be able to.
3.根据“With the ‘Balloon’ spaceships, enough water could be carried to power the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even get to take a hot bath!”可知宇宙飞船上的水能够驱动发动机,种植食物甚至用来洗热水澡,故填It can power the engines, grow food and let the people on the spaceship get to take a hot bath.
4.根据“Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost”可知科学家认为这个宇宙飞船最大的优势是成本,故填It costs less./It is less expensive./It is cheaper./Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost.
5.根据“In the future, people may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship”及全文可知文章主要介绍了未来可能乘坐水力宇宙飞船去火星的构想,故填In the future, people may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship.
Think about the distance you traveled in the last six months of your life. About how many miles did you go? Lucid went quite a distance. On March 22, 1996, she started a journey. She traveled 188 days, 4 hours, and 14 seconds in total. This is a little over six months. So what distance did Lucid travel? She went 75.2 million miles!
How could Lucid go so far? How could she journey so fast? Lucid was an American astronaut and she was in space. She lived on a space station. The space station was the Russian space station Mir. She lived and worked with two Russian astronauts.
On Mir, it was hard for Lucid to know what day it was. Why? Mir did not stay in one place. It orbited the Earth. It went around the Earth. Mir’s orbit meant that darkness did not mean the day was over. Darkness fell many times during a 24-hour period. Darkness fell about every 45 minutes. Lucid did something to help her remember what day it was. She wore pink socks on every seventh day. The pink socks reminded(提醒) Lucid about something else, too. The pink socks helped Lucid remember that Jell-O would be served for dinner. On Mir, Jell-O was a special treat. It was only served on Sunday.
Lucid worked hard to deserve the honor of working on Mir. She went to school for a long time. She was one of the first six women to be accepted into the astronaut-training program. She flew on several American missions. When accepted for Mir, she had to learn Russian in less than 18 months. On Mir, Lucid conducted many experiments. One experiment she conducted was with wheat. Lucid grew wheat. Growing plants in space was important, because green plants could provide oxygen and food for space travelers.
1.When did Lucid start the journey?
2.How many miles did Lucid travel in this journey?
3.Lucid lived on a space station, didn’t she?
4.How did Lucid remember what day it was?
5.Why was growing plants in space important?
6.Do you want to live on Mir? Why or why not?
【答案】1.On March 22, 1996. 2.75.2 million miles. 3.Yes. 4.She wore pink socks on every seventh day. 5.Because green plants could provide oxygen and food for space travelers. 6.本题属于开放性试题,言之有理即可。参考答案:Yes. Because I think it will be an exciting experience.
【导语】本文介绍了Lucid的太空旅行和在太空站的经历。

When Dobek was a kid, she often watched the moon and the stars in the sky with her father outside their house. That made her take great interest in the space and universe (宇宙).
Dobek was in Grade Eight at East Prairie Elementary School. She was good at making things by herself. At school, she designed (设计) a space station for travelling to Mars. And she handed in a five-minute video to take part in the competition named the National Generation Beyond Challenge.
“My design will keep the astronauts safe and make sure they will feel comfortable,” she said in her video.
Dobek had the idea of building the Mars Storage Station to store plenty of supplies (物资). In the video, she described how her space station worked. Dobek also designed physical activities for the astronauts. In her space station, astronauts can choose their exercise machines and virtual (虚拟的) environment. It was much easier for them to watch downloaded shows and even places on Earth such as their homes.
Dobek said that she began her project by doing some scientific research four years ago. She read through many books and collected (收集) lots of information online. After getting good preparation, she only spent over a month designing the space station. She even worked on it on weekends.
When Andrea Smeeton, her teacher, watched the video and her design before they sent it, she said she had a feeling Dobek could win. “I don’t know why but maybe it was the excitement and the details (细节) in the project,” Smeeton said. “I have taught for a long time and many of my students are talented but this project was just very creative and it gave hope to a space programme.”
When Dobek won the competition, she texted her teacher about the good news. Smeeton was so excited that she cried in tears.
