Dear Jim，
I’m writing to introduce the life of astronauts in space.
Living in space is not the same as living on Earth.In space，astronauts float around.They do not use their legs much and their lower backs begin to lose strength，causing the bones to get weak，which is very bad for astronauts’ health.
The heart and blood change in space，too.In space，without the pull of gravity，the blood will flow to the upper body and head.When they come back to Earth，the astronauts have to rest so that their bodies have time to recover.If they don’t，they can feel very weak.They might even faint！
Hoping you can have a knowledge of the life in space.
Yours，
Li Hua

Ⅱ 读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My Father’s Son
It’s hard being an astronaut’s son.I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me.I mean he’s so special and so good at everything he does.But I’m just an average eleven-year-old kid.
Nowadays I dream about being a famous writer，but I used to dream about doing something spectacular to impress my father and make him proud of me—something like rescuing a child from a burning building or chasing a robber away from an old lady.
I was daydreaming in school one morning.I was daydreaming about being some kind of hero when my friend Ellen reminded me of my English teacher’s announcement about a Father’s Day essay contest.
“I hope we have a winner right here in my English class，” she said.“There are three prizes for each of you.”
When I got home，I kissed my mom quickly.Then I went upstairs to my room and sat down with a pen and a pad of paper.I started to think about what I would write.
How did I see my father？Hmm.
I saw him teaching me how to use a bat and how to throw a baseball.
I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was hit and killed by a car.And I remembered how he sat and tried to explain death to me when Grandpa Bob died.
These were the things I was going to write about my dad.To me，he wasn’t just a world-famous astronaut.He was my dad.
I wrote about all these memories and put them in my essay.I handed it in the next day and was surprised to find out that the winning essays would be read in the auditorium on Thursday night.All the parents and students were invited.
My parents and I went to school on Thursday night.One of our neighbors said，“I bet you’ll win the contest，David.I bet you wrote what it’s like to be the son of an astronaut，and you’re the only one in town who could write about that.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I shrugged and then the first prize winner—Ellen was announced.
Surprised and thrilled，I went up to the stage.

第二段：根据续写第二段首句“Surprised and thrilled，I went up to the stage.”可推知，该段可描写作者走上舞台读自己的作文，爸爸很感动，作者感悟到做父亲的儿子就已经足够了。

I shrugged and then the first prize winner—Ellen was announced.Though feeling down，I didn’t want to win just because my father was an astronaut.I was relieved and disappointed at the same time at the news.When Ellen read to the end，I heard a chorus of praise and saw tears running down my parents’ faces.They were moved.Somehow，a mixed feeling welled up in me.Will Dad feel disappointed？Maybe I should have written about being the son of an astronaut.Then the second prize winner was announced.To my amazement，it was me！

M：Hello！ Greetings from the future！ My name’s Mekanika and I live in the year 3044. Many years ago， because there were too many people and too much pollution on Earth， the only way to keep the planet from dying was to send people into space.My family was one of the chosen ones.About one third of Earth’s population was left back home， and the rest of us went into space.We’re now living in a new city on the planet Mars and we still keep in touch with the people on Earth and some of us go back for cleaning up the planet.Every morning， I have to get up at 2 o’clock.
That probably sounds very strange to you， but you see， we have a different time system here. I eat breakfast with my family before I go to school.The meals here are different from yours. We eat pills and drink juice. At 3：30 I catch the school spaceship and fly to class.We don’t have schools and classrooms.We meet our learning guides in different places and solve problems together.

【语音技巧】
职业与人物间的关系题
1.这类题型主要考查谈话一方所从事的职业或要求考生判断谈话双方之间的关系。
（1）熟悉与职业、 身份相关的关键词及对话双方见面时常用的客套语；
（2）根据说话内容、语气、行为、态度就能辨别出人物之间的身份关系，尤其是说话的语气，因为不同的语气决定了不同人物的身份和关系， 如夫妻、师生、医生与病人、店主和顾客、老板和秘书等；
（3）注意地点状语，它有时也会暗示正确答案，平时应注意积累和总结。 听到 drugstore， hospital， clinic就知道应该和医生有关； 听到restaurant 就知道应该和服务员有关；
（4）特别注意动词及称呼，还要留意是否使用敬语。如 please只能用于陌生人或有地位差别的人之间。不同职业的人用语不同： a waitress会谈到menu， food， order， wine等； a policeman 会说tickets， diving license， lights等。
2.设问方式：
Who is the man？
What is the man？
What’s the man’s profession？
What do you think the man can most probably be？
What’s the relationship between the speakers？
What do you suppose the two speakers mostly are？等。
