Life on the ISS
Waking up
Mission control wakes the crew up by turning on the lights at 6 a.m. The day starts the same as it would on Earth. While you wet your brush with water that will stick to its bristles (刷毛), the toothbrush and the tube of toothpaste can be left to float in the air, which is rarely seen on earth. After breakfast, the crew calls down to mission control for a planning conference to run through the day’s schedule.
Maintenance
Then it is time for household chores. Most days, the ISS requires routine maintenance and safety checks. One day it might be moving some supplies; another day could involve repairing an essential piece of equipment.
A visit to the gym
One of the main aims of the ISS is to discover how weightlessness affects the human body. Astronauts lose muscle strength in space and are more likely to break their bones once they return to Earth. To slow this process down, each crew member is required to exercise for at least two hours a day.
Mealtimes
Food comes in several forms. Dehydrated (脱水的) meals come in small bags, and spices are also available, just like on the table back home. But salt and pepper have been transformed into liquids.
Experiments
Each astronaut spends part of their day on experiments in the labs on the ISS, so that scientists back on Earth can better understand how the conditions in space affect things. Mice, ants, fish and worms have all been sent to the station to see how zero-gravity affects their bodies and behavior.
Free time
Once the crew has finished their scheduled tasks for the day, they are free to spend any remaining time they have left from their evening. Perhaps the most popular pastime is to simply watch the Earth spinning silently below the station.
21. According to the article, ISS astronauts’ daily routine is different from ours on Earth in terms of the way they _____.A.work out | B.having their meals |
C.brush their teeth | D.do household chores |
A.do experiments on animals | B.have pepper with their food |
C.decide their own work schedules | D.carry out routine maintenance alone |
A.The ISS acts as a scientific research lab in outer space. |
B.Mission control is of little importance to the success of a space mission. |
C.In the long term, zero-gravity has no negative effect on the human body. |
D.Astronauts rarely watch the Earth from the ISS for fear of getting homesick. |
Scared of needles? Then you might be interested in a new injection-free (免注射) way of taking the COVID-19 vaccine. By simply inhaling (吸气), your invisible shield against corona-virus is formed. It’s as simple as sipping your favorite bubble tea!
The new dose is an aerosolized (雾化的) version of the current COVID-19 vaccine. In other words, the only difference between the new vaccine and the current one is the way the drug is delivered. China’s CanSino Biologics, the company that produces the aerosolized vaccine, said on Sept 4 that it has been permitted for emergency use by the country’s top drug regulator (药物监管机构). It is the first aerosolized vaccine to be approved for public use in China. The vaccine will be used as a booster (加强针) only, according to the company.
An aerosolized COVID-19 vaccine is not only easy to administer (给与药物), but it also offers protection in a unique way, said experts. Sunney Xie Xiaoliang, a biophysical chemist at Peking University and academician of the Chinese Academy of Science, said during a recent forum in Beijing that aerosolized vaccine could be an effective way to protect against respiratory (呼吸道的) diseases in the future. Corona-viruses usually enter the human body through the nose and mouth. Delivering vaccine this way can increase immune responses at the location where viruses enter, according to Xie.
A recent study published in August revealed more advantages. It showed that when given as a booster, the aerosolized vaccine stimulate a stronger antibody response than an injection would. It thus claimed that aerosolized vaccine may be a valuable addition to the existing vaccines.
Marty Moore, co-founder of Meissa Vaccines in Califormia, US told Nature that the approval of the aerosolized vaccine in China confirmed the need for vaccines delivered through the mouth and nose. “That’s the direction we need to go globally, and the United States needs to catch up,” Moore said.
24. What does the article tell us about the aerosolized vaccine?A.It will only be used as a booster. |
B.It will replace injection in the future. |
C.It will be widely used in hospitals after Sept. 4. |
D.It is the first approved aerosolized vaccine in China. |
A.It offers effective and long-lasting protection. |
B.It is easy and simple for the human body to absorb. |
C.It makes the entire human body react to the virus quickly. |
D.It could block the spread of viruses where they enter the body. |
A.The limits of the aerosolized vaccine. |
B.Another benefit of the aerosolized vaccine. |
C.The unique characteristics of the aerosolized vaccine. |
D.Difference between the aerosolized vaccine and injection. |
A.Doubtful | B.Critical | C.Positive | D.Opposed |
Catherine Commale has long known what it is like to greet admiring crowds of kids, to have strangers beg for her autograph (亲笔签名), and to be featured in books and on TV shows. And yet most of her fellow Americans have never heard of the girl, who has helped to save millions of lives in African villages from malaria. The story began when she was only five.
On a spring night in 2006, Katherine’s mother, Lynda, watched Malaria: Fever Wars. The documentary described people who were fighting the mosquito-borne disease that has been blamed for millions of deaths in Africa and elsewhere. The next morning, she told her daughter about the program over breakfast. The little girl was particularly troubled to hear that every 30 seconds a child would end up dying of malaria. Lynda switched the conversation to things they could do to help, like donating mosquito nets (蚊帐).
At first, Katherine tried raising money by selling her old items in the flea market, but she was disappointed at how little she could gather in this way. Soon, she and her younger brother Joseph designed a program to explain to other children how a simple mosquito net, which typically only cost around $10 each, could protect a sleeping child. They took their show to Katherine’s Sunday school and then on to other churches. The idea took off. When that first effort ended, Katherine and her family donated $1,500 to the United Nations Foundation’s Nothing But Nets campaign to buy mosquito nets.
Katherine’s efforts caught the attention of many international celebrities, such as David Beckham and Bill Gate. When she was six, she attended the first Malaria Awareness Day observance (纪念仪式) at the White House, and later a Clinton Global Initiative event where she met former U.S. President Bill Clinton. While Katherine’s pace slowed down as she entered middle school, she rose to fame around the world. She has even been featured in a board game beside the youngest Nobel Prize winner Malala Yousafzai. “I’m not Malala whatsoever,” she said. “It’s just an act of kindness.”
For Katherine, despite having raised about three million dollars for Nothing But Nets and seen the death rate from malaria decrease from every 30 seconds to every two minutes, the adventure that started at her kitchen table is one that she continues to pursue to this day.
28. According to the article, which of the following statements about Katherine is NOT true?A.She is now in her early twenties. |
B.She learned about malaria from a documentary. |
C.She isn’t a well-known name in the United States. |
D.She was upset about the death rate from malaria in 2006. |
A.how Katherine got full support from her friends |
B.how Katherine managed to make her first donation |
C.what lies behind Katherine’s devotion to charity work |
D.what prevented Katherine from raising enough money |
A.felt proud to have met former U.S. President Bill Clinton |
B.got to know Bill Gates on the first Malaria Awareness Day |
C.remained modest even though people spoke highly of her goodness |
D.wasn’t able to continue with her charity work after entering middle school |
A.Better later than never. | B.All that glitters is not gold. |
C.All good things come to an end. | D.Actions speak louder than words. |
Self-confidence refers to your belief in your skills, qualities, and ability to succeed. Having confidence in yourself is not only important to your health and well-being, it can also affect how you are perceived by others. However, not everyone feels confident in their abilities.
Focus on Your Strengths
When you are in a situation where you want to appear confident, it can be helpful to focus on the skills and abilities you feel most confident about.
Positive self-talk, on the other hand, has been shown to be strongly associated with success. If you tend to engage in negative self-talk, start working on re-framing your thoughts to be more positive and optimistic. For example, you might work on reminding yourself that there are positive sides to every situation. Talking to yourself positively is a great way to boost your sense of self-efficacy so that you feel better able to succeed and deal with whatever you are facing.
Look for Inspiration
Looking to confident people you admire reading inspirational statements or repeating a motivating mantra can also be a way to boost your confidence when you need it. The key is to choose realistic role models or statements that reflect achievable goals.
Avoid Making Comparisons
While finding sources of positive inspiration can help you show confidence, it is important to avoid comparing yourself to other people unfavorably. You may make such comparisons whether you are looking at their performance, appearance or other qualities.
Take on New Challenges
A.Talk Yourself Up |
B.Keep Yourself Relaxed |
C.Choose something you know you are good at. |
D.You can avoid being confident from time to time. |
E.If so, it can possibly make you feel worse about yourself. |
F.You might be happy to avoid the situations that leave you feeling less confident. |
G.Fortunately, there are things you can do to show confidence in any situation. |
