Eating in space is different from eating on Earth. The food that astronauts carry with them does not look like the food you eat.

Some food is carried in closed bags. It is cooked and frozen before the astronauts get it. All the water is removed from the food. In the spaceship, the astronaut puts the water back. He "shoots" hot or cold water into the food bag with a special （特別的） gun. He eats the food through a small hole in the bag.

Other foods come in bite （一口） sizes. The astronaut puts a whole piece in his mouth at once. There can be no crumbs（碎屑）. Crumbs would float around the spaceship and get in the way. Meat and cake often come in bite-size pieces.

Astronauts cannot drink water from open cups. The water would float in drops into the air. The water is put in the special gun. The astronaut shoots the water into his mouth.

Eating in space is not easy. Astron-auts must learn to eat this way.

10. Some space foods are carried in _______ .

A. water guns B. lunch boxes C. closed bags D. crumbs

11. Why can't astronauts drink water from open cups?

A. Because the water would float out from the open cups.

B. Because the water would spill all over the food.

C. Because crumbs would float in the cups.

D. Because the cups would float in the air.

12. The main idea of the whole story is that _______ .

A. there is more food and water in space than on earth

B. eating and drinking in space is a special problem

C. astronauts can never eat or drink in a spaceship

D. there is no expensive food or water in a spaceship

I know what you’re thinking: pizza（比薩餅）？ For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a.m. if you want to.學(xué)科網(wǎng)
I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早飯), and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re “saying” calories (卡路里)，still others just don’t like breakfast food.學(xué)科But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight .“Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R.D. ,  who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.學(xué)科Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories.

So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers – it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow.” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it … you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects. 學(xué)科網(wǎng)
【小題1】The word “l(fā)eftovers” in paragraph I probably means  ______.學(xué)科網(wǎng)

A．food remaining after a mealB．things left undone學(xué)科網(wǎng)
C．meals made of vegetablesD．pizza topped with fruit學(xué)科網(wǎng)
