Space travel is certainly bad for astronauts’bones,reducing their bone density(密度)after only a month of
weightlessness,according to French research published on Friday.
Laurence Vico and his fellow workers at St Etienne University called for more research into the effects of
microgravity (微重力),after their study of 1 5 astronauts from the Russian MIR station showed bone loss
continued throughout space flights.“Bone loss was especially striking in four astronauts,”the scientists
reported in the Lancet Medical Journal.
They measured the bone mineral density(BMD)of bones in the forearm(前臂)and lower
leg of the astronauts who had spent one to six months in space.The BMD loss was serious in the tibia(胫骨)of the
lower leg,a weight—bearing bone,but hardly changed in the radius(桡骨)of the forearm.“Our results show the
need to test not only different bones,but also different areas of the same bone since not all sites of the skeleton(骨
架)are similarly affected by space conditions,”they added.
Without gravity the body isn't bearing any weight so there is no need for calcium(钙) which makes bones
strong,and it becomes empty into the bloodstream.The research team suggested in future scientists should try to
determine if the loss of bone density was only on weight—bearing bones on longer flights,also the possible
recovery after returning to Earth.

( )49.In the third paragraph,the word“striking”means______.
A.不寻常的 B.简单的 C.轻微的

One day Turtle saw himself in the pond. What he saw made him unhappy. He thought his green shell looked
so simple. Just then Bluebird flew past. Turtle thought Bluebird was lucky to have bright blue feathers and wished
that he had beautiful blue feathers, too. Then Turtle noticed two of Bluebird’s feathers on the ground. He quickly
picked them up and connected them to his shell with some mud from the pond.
Turtle walked up the path next to the pond feeling quite handsome in his new feathers. Soon he met Squirrel
(松鼠), who began to laugh. “You look so silly!” Squirrel said. Turtle felt terrible. He thought Squirrel was
lucky to have beautiful gray fur and wished that he had gray fur, too. Then Turtle noticed that Squirrel had shed
some fur under a bush. So Turtle picked it up and connected it to his shell with some more mud from the pond.
Turtle walked up the path feeling quite attractive in his new fur and feathers. He couldn’t wait to show off
his new decorations to his friend Frog.
He was happy when he saw Frog coming out of the pond.
“Hello, Frog,” Turtle called.
“Who are you?” Frog asked jokingly.
“I’m your friend Turtle,” Turtle replied.
“That can’t be,” Frog said. “My friend Turtle is a very handsome fellow with a lovely green shell. You are a
foolish-looking creature.” With that, Frog hopped back into the pond. Turtle looked at himself in the pond once
more. Frog was right, of course. He did look foolish. Turtle pulled off the feathers, the fur and the quills. His
green shell was lovely after all.

As a middle school student, we know the importance of English. But how can we study English well? A student
who knows a set of grammatical rules and a lot of English words does not mean that he has mastered the language.
A student’s mastery of English is measured by how well he can use it, not by how much he knows about it. So we
should try our best to use English.
Using English means being able to speak English and write in English. We should not only answer the teacher’s
questions in English, but also speak as much English as we can after class. Keeping diaries in English is the best
way to improve our writing ability.
