19、 astronauts will need to take a lot of food with them just to last for the journey.

NASA said there could be a problem because Mars doesnt have soil that is good f
20、or growing things, which just has red dust. Humans may be on their way to Mars in the next 15 years. NASA has been testing special “Martian gardens” to see what kind of things might grow on Mars. They have used a special soil made of crushed volcanic rock because it contains no nutrients or organic
21、materials, which is similar to the soil on Mars. The scientists managed to grow lettuce (莴苣) in it. They said the lettuce tasted normal, but it had weaker roots and took longer to grow. They will now try growing other vegetables. A NASA spokesman said, “Discoveries made in these Earth-based Martian
22、gardens will pave the way for the future studies and technology development in terms of reliable, efficient food production a long way from Earth.” In 2015, NASA astronauts on the International Space Station ate space-grown lettuce for the first time.

26、as a place for sleep, but more and more people like to read an iPad a lot in bed before they go to sleep. Charles Czeisler, a professor at Harvard Medical School, and his co-workers got a small group of people for an experiment. For five days in a row, these people read either a paper book or an iPa
27、d for four hours before sleep. Their sleep patterns were monitored all night. Before and after each trial period, they took hourly blood tests to paint a day-long picture of just how much melatonin(褪黑激素) was in their blood at any time. When the people read the iPad as compared to the paper books, th
28、ey felt less sleepy at night and less active the following morning. People also took longer to fall asleep on the iPad nights, and the blood tests showed that their melatonin secretion(分泌)was delayed by an hour and a half. The researchers concluded that because of the rise of e-readers and the wides
29、pread use of e-things among children and teenagers, more research into the “long-term influence of these e-things on health and safety” is urgently needed. Czeisler and co-workers went on, in the research paper, to point out that reading an iPad in bed may increase cancer risk. However, software has
30、 been developed that can reduce some of the blue light from the screens of phones and computers, and there are also glasses that are made to reduce short wavelengths.
