BUS Army veteran(退伍老兵)Mazyck remembers when doctors told her she would neverwalk again.She'd been paralyzed from the waist down after a serious accident while parachutingin 2003.The doctors never said anything about floating,though.In 2021,she got to do just that.Mazyck was one of 12 participants in a Zero G flight,organized by the group AstroAccess.This type of flight recreates the weightlessness that astronauts experience without going all theway to space.Flying over the Pacific Ocean off Southern California,the modified 747 jetairplane made 15 steep dives and climbs,allowing the flyers multiple periods of weightlessness.The experience left Mazyck feeling joyful."The flight was something that I would havenever in my wildest dreams thought I would've experienced,"she says,"especially the floating,the weightlessness.”Traditionally,strict physical requirements have prevented disabled people from becomingastronauts.AstroAccess is working to make space accessible to all."Space removes the barriersbetween people;now is the time to remove the barriers to space itself,"says Mazyck,"It issending a message to people who have historically been excluded from STEM that not only isthere room for you in space,there is a need for you."During the flight,she says,the participants did experiments and made observations.Theytook note of things that people without certain disabilities might not realize are issues.Forexample,people who couldn't grip with their legs needed another way to hold themselves stillwhile weightless.The group also experimented with signaling lights for the deaf and with waysof using braille(盲文)for the blind.These types of issues are easy enough to address.Now is the time to make space accessible-before space tourism or space settlements become commonplace."I am so proud and elatedabout what's happening here,"Mazyck adds."We are paving the way for the future."24.What do we know about AstroAccess?A.It redesigns jet airplanes.B.It offers weightlessness experience.C.It provides physical treatment.D.It trains the disabled to be astronauts.25.What is required in the flights for the participants?A.Astronaut experience.B.Steep dives and climbsC.Weightlessness periods.D.Trials and observations.26.Which of the following words can best describe Mazyck?A.Generous and determined.B.Caring and persistent.C.Courageous and optimistic.D.Ambitious and innovative.27.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A.Paving the Way for the FutureB.Disabled Americans Make It to SpaceC.Making Space a Place for Everyone D.US Veterans Experience Zero G Flight高三英语试题卷第4页共10页
