US astronaut Mae Jemison was only a little girl in the 1960s. But she was old enough to know there was something strange with the astronauts as she watched them go into space on TV: They were all men—no women could be seen. "That was the most absurd (荒谬的) thing in the world," Jemison said. "Would the aliens think humans all look like those guys How far is the way to the equality between men and women in space "
Luckily, the past fifty years has seen the world becoming a less "absurd" place—from NASA's first astronaut class in 1959, which was all-male, to its 2013 class, in which half of all eight members were women. And on 29th March, another history was about to be made when an all-female team was planned to make an all-Woman spacewalk. But that plan didn't work at last because there were not enough suits that fitted women. The world is still pretty "absurd" after all.
In fact, tests have showed that women can do as well as men when it comes to space tasks. But these tests are not enough to protect females. They often got some questions that male astronauts were never asked. For example, how could they leave their children behind to go into space Hopefully, in a few years, when aliens do come to visit one of our space stations, they'll see humans the way they should be.
29. From the article, we know that _____.
A.only men joined NASA in the 1960s
B.men can do better in space tasks than women
C.some aliens have seen human beings at a space station
D.the all-female team has walked in space by themselves
30. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.Aliens. B.Parents.
C.Female astronauts. D.Male astronauts.
31. What does this article mainly talk about
A.Some aliens and humans' story in space.
B.Mae Jemison's life experience as an astronaut.
C.NASA's astronaut classes in the past fifty years.
D.Men and women's long walk to equality in space.
