this is a good way to make them become interested in science.in 2020, the iss will finish its job. russia may build a new space station to replace it. china is also planning to finish building its space station in 2023. the universe is set to welcome more space stations.( )4. the first piece of the iss went into space in .a. 1988b. 1989c. 1998 d.1999( )5. according to paragraph 2, we can know that .a. the iss is very light and small b. there are five rooms in the issc. the iss was built by five space agencies d.there are five countries in space( )6. astronauts can do the following except in the iss.a. lift heavy things b. sleep in bed c. observe changes on earth d. float anywhere( )7. whats the best title of the passage?a. the importance of the issb. the plan for building more space stations c.observe changes on earth d. visiting the astronauts space “house” (c)if you live in the united states, the law says you cant have a full-time job until you are 16 years old. at 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week. does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you cant earn (赚) your own money?
