15、y earthbound ( 为地球所吸引 ) experience in the summer of 1980, when he participated in the NASA - ASEE Summer Faculty Fellowship Program. Voss then a science teacher at West Point, was assigned to the Marshall Space Flight Centers propulsion (推进) lab in Alabama to analyze why a hydraulic fuel pump on the

16、 space shuttle was working so well when previous seals had failed. It was a seemingly tiny problem among the vast complexities of running the space program.

It was a valuable moment for Voss because the ASEE program gave him added understanding of NASA, deepened his desire to fly in space, and intensified his application for astronaut status. It was not an essay process. Voss was actually passed over when he first applied for the astronaut pro

19、gram in 1978. Over the next nine years he reapplied repeatedly, and was finally accepted in1987. Since then he has participated in three space mission. The 50-year-old Army officer, who fives in Huston, is now in training fro a four-month mission as a crew member on the International Space Station s

27、ld ever have imagined for me or my children, we are living in an environmental crisis, an air - pollutionemergency of unprecedented severity. What it really means is that just to breathe here is to play adangerous game with your health. As parents, what terrorizes us most are reports that children a

28、re at higher risk because theybreathe more times per minute. What more can we do to protect them and ourselves?

Entire families work in the streets and practically live there. It is a familiar sight: as parents hawk goods at stoplights, their chil

And yet the government cannot do what it must to end this problem. For any country, especially a developing Third World economy like Mexicos, the idea of barring from the capital city enough cars, closing enough factories and spending the necessary billions on public transportation is simply not an option. So when things get bad, as in the current emergency, Mexico takes h
