21、as 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 and53 What is the most important factor for a rocket to escape
22、from the Earth?（A）To travel as fast as it can.（B） To overcome the Earth gravity.（C） To get away from the air resistance.（D）To have strong power in its operation.54 How fast will a rocket go to escape completely from the Earths gravity? _（A）Seventy miles per second.（B） Seven thousand miles per hour.（

25、 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.58 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 an
26、d hardly ever think about it. But it is a most important factor in rocket operation and must be overcome 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 sp
27、eed. If we could throw the ball hard enough it would go up and up forever and never come down. The speed 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 s
28、even miles per second, or over twenty-five thousand miles per hour.Once escape speed has been reached by 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
29、 air resistance(阻力) in space to slow it down. This “coasting“ is known as “free fall“. That does not mean the rocket is falling down towards the Earth but that it is traveling freely in space without the aid of power, like a bicycle coasting downhill.Free fall is an important feature of space travel
30、: it would be impossible to carry enough fuel to provide powered flight all the time.58 What is the most important factor for a rocket to escape from the Earth?（A）To travel as fast as it can.（B） To overcome the Earth gravity.（C） To get away from the air resistance.（D）To have strong power in its oper
31、ation.59 How fast will a rocket go to escape completely from the Earths gravity? _（A）Seventy miles per second.（B） Seven thousand miles per hour.（C） Twenty-five thousand miles per second.（D）Twenty-five thousand miles per hour.60 As there is always the Earths gravitational pull, people _.（A）accept it
32、without questioning it（B） never notice its presence（C） hardly think about how to use it（D）often try to escape from it61 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 resistance62 Why is i
33、t not necessary to provide powered flight in space all the time?（A）Few spacecrafts complete their flight 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: Thi
