Today's space travellers don't go to the Moon or Mars.They go to the International Space Station (ISS).There,the spacemen live for weeks to months. If you visited the ISS years ago,nearly every kind of food you ate would have come from the Earth. In 2014,scientists sent the ISS a space garden with some vegetable seeds ()With water and some light,the vegetables in the garden grew.Those were the first foods being grown on the ISS.But the spacemen couldn't eat them and had to send them back to the Earth.The next year,after scientists made sure they were safe,the spacemen grew a second crop.This time the vegetables were ready for the spacemen to eat. Gardening is different in space than it is on the Earth.Without gravity,plants don't know which way is up.But they learn how to grow.They send their leaves in the direction of light and their roots into the soil. While the space garden is small for now,hopefully it could one day help provide people with food on long-time space trips. 25 英语·七年级上册(HJ) ●●- )1.Years ago,where did most of the food on the ISS come from?

Passage 3 Introduction Rockets are like big engines that help push（推)things in a forward（向前)or upward direction.We use them to launch spaceships into space or to shoot fireworks into the sky. How Rockets Work Rockets work by burning fuel(然烧然料).When the fuel burns,it produces a very hot gas.This gas shoots (out of the back of the rocket and pushes it forward. History The Chinese were the first to make rockets,back in the 1200s.They filled bamboos with a special kind of powder ()This powder burnt very quickly and produced enough gas to shoot the rocket into the air.Later,in the 1700s,people started making rockets out of metal () In the late 1800s,a Russian scientist,Konstantin Tsiolkovsky,was the first person to design a liquid (fuel rocket,but he didn't build one.An American engineer named Robert Goddard was the first person to do this in 1925.In 1957,the Soviet Union (used a rocket to launch the world's first space satellite,Sputnik 1.Since then,many countries have used rockets to send things into space. )1.What is the main purpose of the text?
