For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You s

17、hould make the correct choice.36 The Earth has a force that pulls things toward itself. We call this force gravity(地心引力). This is something we live with all the time, and we take it for granted and hardly ever think about it. But it is a most important factor in rocket operation and must be overcome

18、 if we are to get anywhere in space, or off the ground at all.Take the throwing of a ball as an example. The harder the ball is thrown, the faster and higher it will go. What is the secret? Its speed. If we could throw the ball hard enough it would go up and up forever and never come down. The speed

19、 at which it would have to be thrown to do this is known as escape speed. Of course, we cannot throw a ball hard enough because the speed required to escape completely from the Earths gravity is seven miles per second, or over twenty-five thousand miles per hour.Once escape speed has been reached by

20、 a spacecraft(宇宙飞船), no further power is needed. A rocket aimed at the Moon, for instance, will “coast“(滑行) the rest of the way because the Earths gravity cannot then pull it back, and there is no air resistance(阻力) in space to slow it down. This “coasting“ is known as “free fall“. That does not mea

24、scape from it39 When a bicycle “coasts“ downhill, it _.（A）runs along the hillside（B） does not need any further power（C） runs freely to all directions（D）does not meet with air resistance40 Why is it not necessary to provide powered flight in space all the time?（A）Few spacecrafts complete their flight

25、 operations.（B） The Earths gravity cannot be overcome.（C） No further power is needed after the escape speed is reached.（D）Free fall takes the place of the Earths gravity pull.Task 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1.
