3 . We don’t have beds in the space shuttle but we do have sleeping bags. During the day, when we are working, we leave the bags tied to the wall, out of the way. At bedtime we untie them and take them wherever we’ve chosen to sleep.

On most space shuttle flights everyone sleeps at the same time. No one has to stay awake to watch over the space-plane; the shuttle’s computers and the engineers at Mission Control do that. If anything goes wrong, the computers will ring an alarm and the engineers call us on the radio.

In the space shuttle, sleep-time doesn’t mean nighttime. During each ninety-minute orbit the sun “rises” and shines through our windows for about fifty minutes, then it “sets” as our path takes us around the dark side of the Earth. To keep the sun out of our eyes, we wear black sleep masks.

It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space. Every astronaut sleeps differently. Some sleep upside down, some sideways, some right side up. When it’s time to sleep, I take my bag, my sleep mask, and my tape player with earphones and float up to the flight deck. Then I crawl into the bag, and float in a sitting position just above a seat, right next to a window. Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I have a rest for a while; listening to music and watching the Earth go by beneath me.

1. When it’s bedtime, astronauts put their sleeping bags ________.

A．on the wall	B．at Mission Control
C．in the flight deck	D．in any place they like

2. The underlined phrase “watch over” in the second paragraph has the closest meaning to ________.

A．go over	B．research on
C．look into	D．take care of

3. How long does it take for the space shuttle to go round the Earth?

A．Forty minutes.	B．Fifty minutes.
C．Ninety minutes.	D．Twenty-four hours.

4. The best title for this passage is ________.

A．Sleeping in the Space Shuttle	B．Travel in Space
C．Sleeping Equipment for Astronauts	D．The Earth Seen from Outer Space

Check out the tips starting with number one below:

Spend some time before you move researching the average cost of homes in the area that you are moving to. Also, consider the cost of renting. If you know where you are going to be staying before you arrive, you will reduce much of the stress that you will have once you get there.

Even if English is the spoken language in the country you are planning to move to, it will not be the same version of English that you are used to.     4    

 Keep Family and Friends Informed

After you move to another country, do not forget family and friends that are back home.     5     Also, taking into account your soon-to-be time zone, let them know the best times of day to reach you.

A．Compare the cost of using public transportation with that of owning your own vehicle.
