江西省鹰潭市余江区2023-2024学年八年级上学期1月期末英语试题
My name is Jessica Meir. I am a flight engineer on the International Space Station(ISS)(国际空间站). Today, I will tell you something about what life is like on the ISS.
The ISS has over 425 cubic meters(立方) of living space. I work here with astronauts from the United States, Russia, Japan, Canada and some other countries.
When we are on the ISS, we have to follow an everyday schedule. It tells us when to get up, eat, exercise, work, relax and go to sleep. We spend about two hours each day exercising. Without enough exercise, we would lose an amount of muscle(肌肉) because of the microgravity(微重力) environment in space.
When we are on the ISS, we eat food that is specially made. We eat some foods, such as cakes, in space in the same way as we do on the Earth. But some other foods are real challenges. For example, when we' re in space, we can't shake salt onto food, because the salt would float away(飘走). As a result, we have to use special salt.
When we are not busy working on the ISS, we can relax and have fun in different ways. We also love to listen to music, read books, play cards, watch movies and talk with our family members.
As you can see, the microgravity environment in space brings many challenges that you don't face on the Earth. Would you like to live for some time on the ISS.
