听力填空

本听力材料来自于老托partb，partc，是公认实施有效的听写材料，对于上手托福时间不长的同学非常适合。我曾经一次短时间备考听力提高了7分也归功老托。希望大家和我一样一定要坚持下来噢。相信坚持学习的同学听力上都会有很大的飞跃！

Nopain, no gain.我们的安排是这样的，第一遍用听力软件精听材料（建议做单句听写，听写的时候不要偷看我给的挖空题），然后按照我给的挖空题填关键词，回复后即可看到听力原文和文章精解，我将把难点和易错点oneby one 分析给大家。

回复填空答案格式如下：1____2____3____...et.al.

精解译文

【听力精解】

我记得外太空lecture讲了很多次了，包括宇航服啊，how to survive啊，飞船啊。大家遇到这些词汇要注意积累，自己总结出自己独一份的天文学听力词汇。

【参考译文】

谢谢。看到你们这么多人都对“外太空生存”感兴趣真好。请不要介意摄像机，我们在给当地的电视台录像。今晚我要讲一讲在外太空生存的最基本的方面——太空衣。当你们大部分人想象到一个宇航员时，太空衣是最先在脑海中出现的，对不对？没有太空衣，我们就不可能在外太空生存。比如说，外太空就像一个真空——那里没有重力或者空气压力。没有保护，身体会爆炸。而且，在温度从暖烘烘的300华氏度到冰冷的零下300华氏度的变化下，我们会在太阳里被烤熟或者在背阴处冻结。NASA研制的太空服是一个真正的十分灵巧的东西。这个放大的照片是一个和实物一样大小的图像，反映的是在上一次航天飞机的任务中，宇航员穿着真正的太空衣。这个部分是身体躯干。它是由7个非常耐用的层制作的。粗的绝缘材料保护温度末端和辐射。下一个是他们叫做氧气“囊”的充气囊。它里面充满了氧气，模仿大气压力。这个囊对身体的压力和地球大气层对海平线的压力一样。最里面的层提供液体冷却和通风。尽管有这些层，太空衣很灵活，允许自由的运动，所以我们可以工作。另一个太空衣很复杂的部分是头盔。我带了一个来给你们看。有没有志愿者想上来展示一下吗？

祝大家每天进步一点点！
