program in 2011,the US has used Russian Soyuz spacecraft every time it wants to transport humans to and from space.While NASA is busy working on its own solution,the agency has increasingly turned to US private companies,such as Elon Musks SpaceX,to meet its off-planet transportation needs.Although SpaceX has successfully flown cargo(货物)flights for NASA since 2012 via the reusable Dragon spacecraft,the company has yet to launch humans in its so-called Crew Dragon capsule.Originally scheduled to launch in 2017，the program has seen multiple delays.After all,it is rocket science and the path has not been easy.But 2019 seemed different.NASAs pre-purchased Soyuz flights had run out by the end of 2019，and SpaceX,along with Boeing,had scheduled all its final tests to achieve certification in time to pick up where Soyuz left off.On March 2,the Crew Dragon capsule was launched on a run without crew toward the International Space Station(ISS).The flight,known as Demo-1,went successfully.The next major milestone scheduled was the in-flight abort test(飞行中止测试),another dry mission meant to test the reliability of the abort system that would save the crew in case of any accident during launch.The plan was to use the same capsule from the Demo-1 flight.But SpaceX never got the chance.In April 2019,the company ran what was supposed to be a routine test,firing certain rockets with the capsule anchored firmly to the ground.Some 100 milliseconds before the engines fired,a leak of oxidizer caused an explosion that completely destroyed the capsule.SpaceX spent the rest of spring and early summer figuring out what had gone wrong and pushing preparations for a replacement capsule.While the problem is now solved and the Crew Dragon spacecraft for Demo-2 has arrived at the launch site,NASA and SpaceX havent set an exact date for the first test flight with astronauts to the ISS.()58.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.US tends to continue reliance on Russian Soyuz spacecrafts.B.SpaceX can cover all NASAs off-planet transportation needs.C.NASA has not ceased developing its space travel technology.D.Russia and SpaceX are competing for US space transportation.()59.The underlined word“dry”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to“_”A.without crew B.without cargo C.without a capsule D.without fuels()60.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.A Ray of Hope for Space Exploration B.The Rough Road to Launching A Dragon C.Opportunities for Elon Musks SpaceX D.Doubts about Off-planet Transportation CThere are times when I set off for my running-group sessions with little enthusiasm.It might be because Im tired,or stressed,or have had to unwillingly tear myself away from something else.Im the coach,so I cant choose to give it a miss.It was yet another cold,dark,wet evening and I wasnt feeling the love as I gathered all the necessary outfitshead torch,reflective waterproof jacket,hat and gloves.No one in their right mind will come out in this weather,I thought.But when I turned into the car park,my headlights picked out runners making a dash through the rain to our meeting point,where others were already working out to stay warm,with chat,laughter and hugs.They,too,I realized,might be tired,stressed or busy.But,unlike me,they had a choice about whether to come running or stay at home.And that makes their decision to come and to keep on coming all the more uplifting.As on so many other occasions,I went home from the run feeling better than when Id arrived.I believe one of the strongest motivations behind these runners decisions to come along is being part of a group.Belonging to a running community makes running greater than the sum of its parts.Its no longer just a workout;its a catch-up with friends,a laugh and a shared experience.It provides a space to share your running triumphs and disappointments,to be congratulated and comforted,and,just as important,to congratulate and comfort others.Research has long shown the likelihood of staying motivated is higher when exercise takes place in a group.The reasons are many.A study at the University of Southern California found people enjoy physical activity more when they are with others and are more likely to keep it up over the long term.Theres also an element of social facilitation an“Im not going to let XX beat me”attitude that drives you to push harder and produces a greater sense of achievement.And research by Strava in 2017 found running in a group made runners go faster and further.Using data from 90 million runs taking place all over the world,Strava found that the average pace of runs taking place in a group was seven seconds per mile quicker than solo runs,and the distance covered was an average of 1.3 miles further.I joke about people being more motivated to come to my running sessions by the tea and biscuits afterwards than by the running itself.Theres probably some truth in that,but it doesnt matter.Those laughter-and chatter-filled minutes are every bit as important as the running in between.()61.The author sometimes feels _ to go coaching the running group.A.reluctant B.content C.excited D.frustrated()62.Why is being part of a group most motivational?A.It involves a coach offering assistance.B.It creates space to socialize with others.C.It inspires members to beat their records.D.It frees runners from boring daily routines.()63.That being in a group promotes performance is proven by _ A.citing a typical example B.lis
