One of the most important differences is that there is no gravity(重力)in space. So many people think living things can't develop well in space. ▲ A team of American scientists sent mouse embryos(胚胎) to space in August 202l. Then astronauts let them grow on the space station for four days. Guess what happened? The mouse embryos successfully developed just like they do on Earth! The different environment didn't prevent the development of mouse embryos. The scientists soon shared their study online in the scientific magazine Science. They clearly pointed out that gravity might not bring as many differences to the development of these mouse embryos as they had thought before. When the mouse embryos were sent back to Earth, the scientists also checked their DNAs and genes(基因). They found that they were still the same. However, they still needed to do more studies to make sure everything was okay with the embryos. This surprising research is the first to suggest that mouse embryos can successfully develop in the special environment of space.The team's next plan is to place these embryos into the mice to see if they can give birth. If that goes well, it may not be impossible for us to see space babies in the future! ( ) 26. Which sentence can be put in ▲ ? A. Soon children would like to travel to space. B.

A. put the embryos into the mice B. send more mouse embryos to space C. take some human babies to space D. study if mice could give birth in space. ( ) 30. What's the main idea of the passage? A.

The future of giving birth to mouse babies in space. C 匹配阅读。左栏是五个人物对经历过的事情的感想，右栏是对七个事件的描述，诸将事情与对应的人的感想配对，并将其字母编号写在答题卡上相应的位置上。其余两项是多余的。 ( )31. It was really a big surprise for me.

Jimmy Bell. In 1994, Bell and his team started to test nearly 800 people with MRI to create“fat map”. It shows where people store(储存) fat. According to the result, people who keep their weight through the food may have lots of fat even though they are thin. Even people with normal weight may have surprising level of fat. According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually becoming fat. They eat too much fatty and sugary food, but they are not eating enough to be fat. The body naturally stores fat around the stomach first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere. Doctors are unsure about the exact danger of fat.But some think it may cause heart disease.They want to prove(证明)that fat does harm to the body's communication systems. The good news is that people can burn off fat by doing exercise. “If you want to be healthy, there is no other way. Exercise is an important part of your lifestyle,” Bell said. 46.When did Bell and his team start to create “fat map”? _____________________________________________________________________ 47. Who may have surprising levels of fat? _____________________________________________________________________ 48.
