Mark and Scott are twins. They are both retired(退休的）NASA（美国国家航天航空局）astronauts. From 2015 to 2016,Scott spent 340 days at the international space station, while Mark stayed on the earth. People took measures of both men before, during and after the flight. They were helping with a NASA project which studies how long-term space travel influences the human body.
The full results of the study will come out in a year or two. But scientists are sharing some findings in the journal Nature.
A change in appearance was easy to see. Scott, when he returned to the earth, was 5cm taller before. Another change was that Scott's eyesight declined after he came back. He found he couldn't see clearly. He also found that he couldn't move his legs so easily like before. Scientist found that after coming back to the earth, he took a little longer to understand things and make decisions.
There were also changes that were much harder to see. As someone grows older, his telomeres(端粒）get shorter and become less effective to stop DNA from getting damaged. But during Scott's stay in space, his telomeres got longer while Mark's kept getting shorter.
Further tests on the twins are still going on.NASA plans to send people to Mars in the 2030s,and the twins' research could help them prepare for those space trips.

A．He couldn't understand others as well as before. B．He could walk faster than before. C．His telomeres became longer. D．He grew taller than before.
35．The last paragraph mainly tells us ____________.
A．the fun of space travel
B．the success of the twins' research

四、多任务混合问题
The British artist Dominic Wilcox has created a pair of shoes, which can lead you home no matter where you are in the world. He thought about the fairy tale The Wizard of Oz and how Dorothy could click her shoes to go home. So he decided to make a pair of shoes that could take you home with a click of heels. The shoes ca n point the way with GPS and clever LEDs(发光二极管).Wilcox worked with another artist and a shoemaker to produce what he calls the “No Place Like Home” shoes.
One of the “No Place Like Home” shoes has a GPS unit inside the heel of the left shoe. It communicates wirelessly(无线方式)with the right shoe and provides data to the LED lights. The LEDs on the left toe point the person in the right direction while those on the right toe show how much of the journey still remains.
It may be an art project. There’s only one pair, but it’s not hard to imagine a similar, more everyday pair of shoes for children, old people or those who always lose their ways in the future.
Now, this pair of shoes are on show in London.

49．句意：因为五分之一的空气是由氧气构成的。

根据固定搭配be made up of“由……组成”，所以用make的过去分词made，故填made。
