14、ome examples.First consider something as simple as sleep.Its position presents its own challenges.The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag.If you leave your arms out，they float free in zero gravity，often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny ballet

15、(芭蕾) dancer.“Im an inside guy，”Mike Hopkins says，who returned from a sixmonth tour on the International Space Station.“I like to be wrapped up.”On the station，the ordinary becomes strange.The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars.It also has no seat.With no gravity，its just as

21、stronauts when they sleep in space?ADeciding on a proper sleep position.BChoosing a comfortable sleeping bag.CSeeking a way to fall asleep quickly.DFinding a right time to go to sleep.【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Its position presents its own challenges.”可知，在太空中睡觉时，首先要面对的就是睡觉的姿势问题，这与A项中的position吻合。其他三个选项都表述片面

22、，不能概括position一词，所以选择A项。【答案】A6The astronauts will suffer from a carbondioxide headache when _Athey circle around on their bikesBthey use microcomputers without a stopCthey exercise in one place for a long timeDthey watch a movie while pedaling【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But station residents have to be careful

23、 about staying in one place too long.You can end up with what astronauts call a carbondioxide headache.”可知，如果在一个地方待的时间太长，没有了重力帮助空气流通，呼出的二氧化碳就有可能在你的头附近形成隐形的云朵，你就会得“二氧化碳”头疼症，这与C项的表述吻合。A、B、D三项描述的都不是长时间在一个地方的活动，所以不会产生“二氧化碳”头疼症。【答案】C7Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days beca

24、use _Atheir senses stop workingBthey have to stand up straightCthey float out of their seats unexpectedlyDtheir brains receive contradictory messages【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Your inner ear thinks youre falling.Meanwhile your eyes are telling you youre standing straight.That can be annoyingthats why some pe

25、ople feel sick.”可知，在太空中，你的内耳认为你要倒下，而眼睛却告诉你你在直立，也就是内耳和眼睛输出的信息是矛盾的，所以有些人会感到恶心，故选择D项。在太空中宇航员的感官不会停止工作，所以A项错误；B项是对文意的错误理解；C项表述的情况在太空中可能会发生，但是这种情况不会使宇航员们感到恶心(feel sick)，所以与题干不符，故排除。【答案】D8One of NASAs major concerns about astronauts is _Ahow much exercise they do on the stationBhow they can remain healthy

26、 for long in spaceCwhether they can recover after returning homeDwhether they are able to go back to the station【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“NASA is worried about two things.”可知，NASA担心的是宇航员回家之后需要的恢复时间和怎样在两年半或更长时间的绕火星的旅行中保持体力和健康，这与B项中的remain healthy for long in space吻合，由此可知应该选择B项。A、D两项在原文中并没有提及，C项是对原文的错误理解。【答案
