高考维“升”素10——航天科技 （时间：分钟） 维A 阅读理解(每题2分，满分8分)　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　(2012·辽宁卷)Astronauts on shorter shuttle missions (使命) often work very long days.Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the days work.This type of schedule is far too demanding for long missions on the International Space Station (ISS)．ISS crewmembers usually live in space for at least a quarter of a year.They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on Earth as much as possible.Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework.They can communicate with family and friends by email，Internet phone and through private video conferences. While astronauts cannot go to a baseball game or a movie in orbit，there are many familiar activities that they can still enjoy.Before a mission，the family and friends of each ISS crewmember put together a collection of family photos, messages，videos and reading material for the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth.During their mission，the crew also receives care packages with CDs，books，magazines，photos and letters.And as from early 2010，the Internet became available on the ISS，giving astronauts the chance to do some “Web surfing(冲浪)” in their personal time.Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments，astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space. Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out of the window and stare at the universe and the Earth.Both the shuttle and the ISS circle the planet several times each day，and every moment offers a new view of the Earths vast land mass and oceans. 【语篇解读】 宇航员每年一般会在太空待上至少三个月的时间。他们在太空的工作也是五天制，每工作五天就休息两天。那么，在茫茫太空，他们是如何度过这两天的呢？本文向我们介绍宇航员在太空的“周末”生活。 1．What does the word “mimic” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
