While I was looking at it, the cat got out of the tree, jumped down to the ground, walked across the field and sat next to us. It was possible that it wanted some of our picnic to eat, but there was nothing for the cat. The cat got up and came close to me. I talked to it and it smiled at me.

C
Many people dream of traveling into outer space. However, spending too much time in traveling space may cause health problems, according to NASA. That's why astronauts shouldn't spend more than six months on the International Space Station(ISS)at a time.
Muscle and bone loss
In a weightless environment, astronauts don't need to use their muscles to support themselves, so their muscles start shrinking. To keep their muscles strong, astronauts need to exercise for about 2 hours each day on the ISS.
Sleep disorder
In space, the sun rises every 90 minutes. It is hard for astronauts to get used to this light?dark cycle when they sleep. Also, they need to sleep in a sleeping bag that is fixed to a wall, and it is uncomfortable.
Astronauts now have individual sleeping pods that help shut out some of the light. And studies have found that most astronauts only sleep for about six hours each night, even though they should sleep for about eight and a half hours.
Brain changes
Scientists have found that the position of the brain changes during the space flight. It can affect how the brain deals with what we see and that how we stay balanced and move around. That's why some astronauts can't control their movement and balance after returning to the Earth. Scientists have also found that astronauts may get used to this change after going on more space flights. But they still need to do more research.
31. According to the passage, astronauts may have the following health problems EXCEPT ________.
A. bone loss B. brain changes
C. sleep disorder D. headache
32. Astronauts may have muscle problems because________.
A. they seldom walk while in space
B. they are too busy to exercise in space
C. they don't have enough room to exercise in space
D. they don't need to use their muscles to support themselves in space
33. Astronauts sleep in individual sleeping pods to ______.
A. stay warm at night
B. shut out light
C. enjoy a quiet place
D. avoid moving around
34. What does the underlined word “shrinking”in the passage mean?
A. 萎缩 B. 改变 C. 消失 D. 膨胀
35. What's the best title of this passage?
A. Sleep Disorder in Space
B. Brain Changes in Space
C. Muscle and Bone Loss in Space
D. Health Problems in Space
D
