Astronauts live in a very special environment when they are in space. Their lives are quite different from ours on Earth. Let's take a look at their daily life.
When it comes to eating, astronauts can't just sit down at a table and have a meal like we do. They have to eat special food that is prepared in a special way. The food is usually in packages that are easy to open and eat. For example, they might have freeze-dried fruits and vegetables. They also have to drink water from special containers.
Sleeping in space is also a unique experience. Astronauts don't have beds like we do. Instead, they sleep in sleeping bags that are attached to the walls or ceilings. This is because there is no gravity in space, so they can't just lie down on a bed. They have to make sure they are secured in their sleeping bags so they don't float around.
As for work, astronauts have many important tasks to do. They might conduct experiments, take pictures of the Earth and other planets, or repair equipment. Their work is very important for our understanding of space.
6. Astronauts eat special food because ________.
A. it tastes better
B. it is easier to prepare in space
C. it is more nutritious
D. it is cheaper
答案：B。

解析：文中提到宇航员的食物是经过特殊准备的，通常是包装好的，容易打开和食用，因为在太空中不能像在地球上一样坐在桌子旁吃饭，所以是因为在太空更容易准备。

9. What might astronauts do for work?
A. Play games
B. Watch movies

People have always been fascinated by space. In ancient times, people looked up at the stars and wondered what was out there. They created myths and stories about the heavens. For example, the Greeks had stories
about the gods living on Mount Olympus, which they thought was in the sky.
As time went on, humans began to observe the stars more closely. Astronomers like Galileo Galilei made important discoveries using telescopes. Galileo saw that the moon had mountains and craters, and he also discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter.
In the 20th century, space exploration took a huge leap forward. The Soviet Union launched the first satellite, Sputnik 1, in 1957. This was followed by the United States' efforts to send astronauts to the moon. In 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the moon.
Today, space exploration continues. Scientists are studying planets, stars, and galaxies. They are also looking for signs of life in other parts of the universe.

In the future, space travel may become as common as taking a plane ride today. Imagine being able to go on a vacation to another planet or even live on a space station. With the rapid development of technology, who knows what amazing things might happen?
Space tourism could be a reality for many people. Rich tourists might pay a large amount of money to experience the thrill of floating in zero gravity and seeing the Earth from space. Scientists are also working hard to make interstellar migration possible. If we find a planet similar to Earth, we might be able to move there and start a new life.
However, there are still many challenges to overcome. Space travel is very expensive and dangerous. We need to develop better spacecraft and life support systems to ensure the safety of astronauts and tourists. But with determination and innovation, we can make these dreams come true.
