23、otel-private rooms, meals, bars. But theyll also offer two unique experiences: impressive views-of Earth and space-and the endless entertainment of living in zero gravity-including sports and other activities that make use of this. The hotels themselves will vary greatly-from being quite simple in t
24、he early days to huge luxury structure at a later date. Its actually surprising that as late as 1997, very few designs for space hotels were published. This is mainly because those who might be expected to design them havent expected launch costs to come down far enough to make them possible. Lots o
25、f people whove been to space have described vividly what its like to live in zero gravity. There are obviously all sorts of possibilities for dancing, gymnastics, and zero-G sports. Luckily, you dont need to sleep much living in zero gravity, so youll have plenty of time for relaxing by hanging out
26、in a bar with a window looking down at the turning Earth below. Of course all good things have come to an end, unfortunately. And so after a few days youll find yourself heading back though youll be much more expert at exercising in zero gravity than you were when you arrived. Youll be thinking how
27、soon you can save up enough to get back up again-or maybe you should change jobs to get to work in an orbiting hotel. 46. When traveling in space, most people would like to stay in orbit for a few days because _. A. It is expensive to travel in space B. they would find the possible life in other sta

31、ve enough food supplies there, and the terrible environment would make it impossible for them to live a long life. Besides, the journey wont be safe. Can anybody explain to me just why people would go to Mars, never to return? Steve Minear, UK Here are the things you can think of: the desire to expl
32、ore a foreign and unique environment, the excitement of being the first humans to open up a new world, the expectation of fame and gloryFor scientists there is another reason. Their observations and research will probably lead to great scientific achievements. Donal Trollop, Canada There are already
33、 too many people on the Earth. I think that sometime before the end of the century, there will be a human colony(殖民地 )on Mars. It will happen when people finally realize that two-way trips to the red planet Mars are unnecessary. Most of the danger of space flight is in the launches(发射 ) and landings
34、. Cutting the trip home would therefore reduce the danger of accidents, save a lot of money, and open the way to building an everlasting human settlement on another world. Enough supplies can be sent on ahead. And every two years more supplies and more people will be sent to the new colony. Mars has
35、 all the materails for a colony to produce or make everything it needs, and Mars is far more pleasant than the other planets in the outer space. Paul Davies,USA 50.

Humans can produce everything they need. D. Humans can live longer in the colony on Mars. C Being able to multitaskdoing several t
39、hings at the same timeis considered a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again. What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle an ever larger number of electronic devices(电子产品 )as they study. While w
40、orking, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a significant amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask. Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people
41、give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table. Multitasking also affects young peoples performance at university and in the work
42、place. When asked about their opinion of the effect of modern gadgets(器具 )on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive response(反应 ).
