六、阅读理解
①What will our life be like in 50 years? Although we don’t know the answer, we believe that it will be very different from the life today. In the future, I think we will live on Mars. Here is what life will be like there.
②First of all, transport should be much better. Now, our spaceships (宇宙飞船) are too slow to carry lots of people to space—it takes months. However, in the future, it will take us two or three days to get to Mars by spaceship!
③Life on Mars may allow people to have more free time. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work, so we will have more time for our hobbies.
④How about the food, water, and air people need to live? Scientists will be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food and air we need. However, can these plants give water to us? There is no answer now.
⑤There are also some problems for us. Mars pulls us much less than the earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To stop this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to put on weight. What’s more, food will look like pills (药片) and will not be as delicious as it is today. Also, space travel may make many people feel ill.
1.What will the future spaceship be like?

【导语】本文主要介绍了作者所畅想的人们50年后在火星上的生活。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段的 “Now, our spaceships (宇宙飞船) are too slow to carry lots of people to space—it takes months. However, in the future, it will take us two or three days to get to Mars by spaceship!” 可知,未来的宇宙飞船更快。故选B。
2.词义猜测题。根据第五段的 “Mars pulls us much less than the earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To stop this...” 可知,火星对我们的引力比地球小得多,我们很容易跳得过高,然后慢慢飘向太空。this指代“飞向太空”。故选A。
