1. (2022七上·南山期中) 阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项

"Five, four, three, two, one, fire off!" Astronauts(宇航员) are in space again! On Oct 16, China's Shenzhou-13 spacecraft（载人航天器）took off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Gansu Province（省）.

Shenzhou-13 carried three astronauts — Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu. They will stay for six months. There they will set up a robot's arm, make sure all machines work well and do scientific tests. They will even celebrate（庆祝）the 2022 Spring Festival in space.

It's not an easy job to do all these things. Chinese astronauts get difficult training before going to space. All the Chinese astronauts are excellent pilots with hundreds or even thousands of hours of flight time. They also have hundreds of classes to prepare for space travel.

Wang Yaping is the mother of a 5-year-old girl. She is China's second woman astronaut to take part in a spaceflight, and she will become the first Chinese woman to take a spacewalk. "We may have to do such training every single day for years or decades. But there is no ‘give up' in our dictionary." said Wang.
