三、阅读表达　阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题，每小题答案不超过9个单词。
　　If you dream of becoming a spaceman after you grow up, get started now! A spaceman needs a strong body and mind. See here what spacemen are able to do. They have many abilities that may make you amazed. Do you still have a long way to go?
　　Spacemen are able to live upside down(头朝下地). They do this not just during sleep, but also when eating and going to the toilet. Before they fly into space, they have lots of practice. Each upside−down training time lasts for 20 days.

　　Spacemen aren’t just spaceship drivers but also machine repairers and scientists. They have to know every part of the spaceship and how it works. If something doesn’t work well, they must know how to make it work again. Also they do scientific experiments(实验) in space.
　　Spacemen must know about the wild. They take a knife, a gun and some dye(染料) with them into space. If they land in forests, the knife and gun can protect them from wild animals. If they fall into the sea, the dye can colour the sea water around them yellow. This can help people find them easily.
　　Spacemen can’t get dizzy(眩晕的). A spaceship is not a plane. When it goes up, the extra gravity force can break people’s bones. Spacemen must have strong bodies for this. They can’t get a headache or be sick. With many things to take care of, they’ve got no time to get sick.
