complete the statements in the fewest possible words.space travel and science fictionspace travel and science fiction have long been connected. early science fiction writers such as jules verne inspired scientists and engineers to develop new space technologies. writers of science fiction, as well as creators of science fiction tv shows and movies, often study the latest scientific concepts and use or adapt them to help expose what future space travel, space ships, and space stations might look like. and while many of their predictions have come true, many others have not.jules verne (1828-1905) was a french author. he was a pioneer of science fiction. in his novels from the earth to the moon (1865) and around the moon (1870), a kind of space ship is fired from a 900-foot-long cannon(大炮) at the moon. on their journey, the three travelers are deprived of gravity at one point and float around their small ship. when landing on the moon, rockets are used to slow the ship down.given the year in which he was writing, vernes predictions were very good. the size of his space ship is about the size of the first one to go to the moon, the apollo, minus its large rockets. both vernes ship and the apollo carried three people into space. furthermore, rockets were indeed used by the apollo to slow its descent. however, vernes ship, by analogy(相似) with a gun, shot his travelers into space, which never could have worked. the intense pressure of such an event would cause great physiological damage to the crew.during the first half of the 20th century, science fiction novels and comic books were widely distributed in the united states. their portrayal(描写) of space travel was less far-fetched than vernes. pictures began showing astronauts in space suits, as writers realized that exposure of human beings to space was deadly. ideas of other planets were still often wrong, though. a 1928 drawing of the surface of a moon of the planet jupiter shows it covered in plant life. only later was it discovered that other than earth, the planets and moons around our sun are without life as we know it. drawings in the early 20th century showed very large space ships and stations. they were like floating cities. writers at the time knew that trips to other stars would take hundreds of years. those who left earth would die on the journey; their descendants would arrive. some writers avoided this problem by using the concept of suspended animationa deep sleep in which a person doesnt grow older. such travelers would awaken at the end of their journey, hundreds of years in the future. it is not impossible that these ideas could become reality one day.after the american space program had begun, the television show star trek became very popular. it follows the adventures of a large space ship with over 400 crew members that flies around the universe at speeds faster than light. this is a wonderful dream, but it will probably never come to fulfillment. the laws of physics tell us that it is quite impossible for any object to travel faster than the speed of light.its clear to see that science fiction has progressed along with science and technology. science fiction writers continue to study scientific concepts and to use them to portray the future. looking back at their ideas, some were correct and cannot be distinguished from todays reality; many others were nothing but fiction. but, they have always inspired new generations of humans to dream of someday going into space.78. according to the passage, what did early science fiction writers do to help reveal what future space travel might look like? 79. if the modern spaceship were shot into space by analogy with a gun, the astronauts in it would _. 80. the space travelers in early science fictions didnt wear space suits, because _. 81. according to the passage, suspended animation was a concept used in science fiction to _ (note: answer the questions or complete the statements

them unhappy.they make great efforts to achieve the perfect relationship，the perfect house，the beautiful body，the approval of others，all in an attempt to be happy.2sometimes these things make people happy；other times，people stress over not having reached the goals，or reach them and find theyre still unhappy.other times，people focus on just one goal and dont have time for other things that will
