A seventh grader from America came up with the idea for her science project at school. Lauren Rojas,a13-

24、year-oldgirl,once watched a television programme. In the programme，a balloon（气球） was released into the sky. She thought she could do the same with her Hello Kitty doll. Lauren spent about a month building a small silver rocket and a weather balloon by herself. She put the Hello Kitty doll into the r

25、ocket and tied it with the balloon. After testing wind direction and temperature, she set the balloon free. Lauren Rojas said she wanted to test the effects(影响)of altitude on the balloons air pressure and temperature. To record the journey, she put cameras to the rocket. After a few minutes，the ball

26、oon rose more than 90，000 feet above the ground. It was near outer space. There，the air was so thin that the balloon burst. The balloon was 53 times larger than its original size before bursting open. Hello Kittys rocket fell back down to Earth with the help of a parachute（降落伞). It landed in a tree

Lauren got an A+ on her project C NASA has a new job listing, and its no joke. The US space agency is looking for a “joker” to

32、 join their planned mission to Mars. A mission(旅行）to Mars is no laughing matter. On average, the red planet is 140 million miles (225 million kilometers) away from Earth. A trip there would take around eight months in a small spacecraft. And Mars has a communications delay of 20 minutes. This means

33、that astronauts will have to wait 20 minutes for a reply, when an emergency happens. “When youre living with others in a confined space for a long period of time, such as on a mission to Mars, problems are likely to occur,”Jeffrey Johnson, a scientist at the University of Florida, told the Guardian.

34、 This is probably why NASA wants an astronaut with a sense of humor.“These are people that have the ability to pull everyone together,” Johnson said. In stressful situations, perhaps humor is a way to know we arent alone. By laughing together, we share our stress. Then we can focus on our jobs inste

Adolf Lindstrom, a cook at Amundsens team, was a “clown”. He made people laugh through the whole journey.

36、Amundsen later wrote that Lindstrom was the most valuable member of the team. But if youre hoping that your favorite TV comedian will fly to Mars, that probably wont happen. “Being funny wont be enough to land somebody the job,”Johnson said.“They also need to be an excellent scientist and engineer.”

37、 Besides, they must be in top physical condition 11.What is NASAs new job listing? A. A funny engineer. B. A talented clown. C. A good cook. D.

39、plorers eat on their journey is very important. B. An amateur can play a more important role than a professional. C. Humorous people can cheer people up in difficult situations. D. A mission to Mars is more difficult than a journey to the South Pole. 15.What could be the best title of the passage? A
