34、UShas used Russian Soyuz spacecraft Every time it wants to transport humans to and from space. While NASA is busy working on its own solution, the agency has increasingly turned to USprivate companies, such as Elon Musk' s SpaceX, to meet its off-planet transportation needs. Although SpaceX has

35、successfully flown cargo(貨物)flights for NASAsince 2012 via the reusable Dragon spacecraft, the company has yet to launch humans in its so-called Crew Dragon capsule. Originally scheduled to launch in 2017, the program has seen multiple delays. After all, it is rocket science and the path has not bee

36、n easy.But 2019 seemed different. NASA s pre-purchased Soyuz flights had run out by the end of 2019, and SpaceX, along with Boeing, had scheduled all its final tests to achieve certification in time to pick up where Soyuz left off. On March 2, the Crew Dragon capsule was launched on a run without cr

37、ew toward the International Space Station (ISS). The flight, known as Demo-1, went successfully.The next major milestone scheduled was the in-flight abort test(飛行中止測試 ),another drymission meant to test the reliability of the abort system that would save the crew in case ofany accident during launch.

38、 The plan was to use the same capsule from the Demo-1 flight. But SpaceX never got the chance.In April 2019, the company ran what was supposed to be a routine test, firing certain rockets with the capsule anchored firmly to the ground. Some 100 milliseconds before the engines fired, a leak of oxidiz

39、er caused an explosion that completely destroyed the capsule.SpaceX spent the rest of spring and early summer figuringout what had gone wrong and pushingpreparations for a replacement capsule. While the problem is now solved and the Crew Dragon spacecraft for Demo-2 has arrived at the launch site, N

40、ASAand SpaceX haven t set an exact date for the first test flight with astronauts to the ISS.58. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. US tends to continue reliance on Russian Soyuz spacecrafts.B.

Doubts about Off-planet TransportationC.There are times when I set off for my running-groupsessions with little enthusiasm. It mightbe because I m tired, or stressed, or have had to unwilling

43、ly tear myself away form something else. I m the coach, so I can t choose to give it a miss.It was yet another cold, dark, wet evening and i wasn t feeling the love as I gathered allthe necessary outfits-head torch, reflective waterproof jacket, hat and gloves. No one in their right mind will come o

44、ut in this weather, I thought. But when I turned into the car park, my headlights picked out runners making a dash through the rain to our meeting point, where others were already working out to stay warm, with chat, laughter and hugs. They, too, I realized, might be tired, stressed or busy. But, un

45、like me, they had a choice abo9ut whether to come running or stay at home. And that makes their decision to come and to keep on coming all the moreuplifting. As on so many other occasions, I went home from the run feeling better than when Id arrived.I believe one of the strongest motivations behind

46、these runners decisions to come alongis being part of a group. Belonging to a running community makes running greater than the sum of its parts. It s no longer just a workout; it s a catch-up with friends, a laugh and a shared experience. It provides a space to share your running triumphs and disapp

47、ointments, to be congratulated and comforted, and, just as important, to congratulate and comfort others.Research has long shown the likelihood of staying motivated is higher when exercise takes place in a group. The reasons are many. A study at the University of Southern California found people enj

48、oy physical activity more when the y are with others and are more likely to keep it up over the long term. There s also an element of social facilitation-an“ I m not going tolet XXbeat me” attitude that drives you to push harder and produces a greater sense of achievement. And research by Strava in

49、2017 found running in a group made runners go faster and further. Using第 6頁data from 90 million runs taking place all over the world, Strava found that the average pace of runs taking place in a group was seven seconds per mile quicker than solo runs, and the distance covered was an average of 1.3 m

50、iles further.I joke about people being more motivated to come to my running sessions by the tea and biscuits afterwards than by the running itself. There s probably sometruth in that, but it doesn t matter. Those laughter-and chatter-filled minutes are everybit as important as the running in between

It involves a coach offering assistance.B. It creates space to socialize with others.C. It inspires members to beat their records.D.

52、It frees runners form boring daily routines.63.

Tea and biscuits in running sessions are meant to .A. attract more runners f

53、orm other groupsB. build up some strength before runningC. make his running group stand out of allD. add more life to their running experience DAt the end of the 19th century, one in seven people around the world had died of tuberculosisor TB for short（ 肺結核）, and the disease ranked as the third lead

54、ing cause of death in the UnitedStates. While physicians had begun to accept that TB was caused by bacteria, this understanding was slow to catch on among the general public, and most people gave little attention to thebehaviors that contributed to disease transmission. They didn t understand that t

55、hings they did could make them sick. It was common for family members, or even strangers, to share a drinking cup.In the 1890s the New York City Health Department launched a massive campaign to educate the public and reduce transmission. The “ War on Tuberculosis ” public health campaign discouraged

56、 cut-sharing and urged states to ban spitting inside pubic buildings and on sidewalks and in other outdoor spaces. Changes in public behavior helped successfully reduce the spread of TB.Disease can permanently change society, and often for the best by creating better practices and habits. Crisis set

57、s off action and response. Many infrastructure improvements and healthy behaviors we consider normal today are the result of past health campaigns that responded to serious outbreaks.In the 19th century, city streets in the U.S. overflowed with dirt. People threw their unwanted newspapers, food scra

58、ps, and other trash out of their windows onto the streets below. The plentiful horses pulling streetcars and delivery cart dropped urine and waste every day. Human waste was a problem, too. Those in tenement（ 租戶 ） housing did not have their own facilities, but had 20 to 30 people sharing a single outhouse. These t
