The lack of atmosphere can cause gases in the body to expand and even burst. With no oxygen to breathe, a human being will die in only a few moments. Radiation from the
22、 sun is another risk in space. So is damage from small pieces of rock and objects like meteoroids (陨石).In 1933, an American flyer, Wiley Post, designed one of the first successful devices to protect a pilot at extreme heights. It was a large device that looked like a can surrounded the pilots head.
23、Astronauts in the American space agency (NASA) flew the first American space flights in the early 1960s. The clothing was similar to that invented by Wiley Post. Today, astronauts wear very different protective clothing. It lets them move, do useful tasks, and stay outside their spacecraft in comfor

It was designed to endure longer and to permit more movement than earlier spacesuits.The EMU has a number of parts that an astronaut can link together by using only one hand, which makes it possi
25、ble for each astronaut to select the parts that fit correctly.Nowadays, NASA scientists are also considering the kind of spacesuits that would be needed for exploration on the planet Mars. Because of the gravity on Mars, spacesuits may have to be designed to be lighter than suits used in orbit or on
26、 the moon. The equipment may also have to protect astronauts from dust carried in the winds on Mars. And, they must be easy to repair and keep clean during a longer flight to and from the red planet.28. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the dangers of space environment?A. Gases in the bo

The Advantages of SpacesuitsDOur character, basically, is made up of our habits. “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny (命运),“ as the saying goes.Habits are
30、 powerful factors in our lives. Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it every day and soon it cannot be brok
31、en.“ I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But we also know it isnt a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous effort.Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first men walk on the
32、moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.Habits, too,
33、have tremendous gravity pull. However, most people dont realize or admit it. Getting rid of bad habits really requires great willpower and some changes in our lives. Lift-off takes tremendous effort, but once we break out of the pull of gravity, we can enjoy unprecedented(空前的) freedom.Like any natur
34、al force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together and keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force,
35、 and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.32 Why did the author quote the saying in the first paragraph?ATo show the author was a wise man.BTo support the authors opinion about the habit.C Because a great
