AMany people believe that before 2100 we will live on Mars.火星。

Here is what life will be like.Firstly, spaceships will be faster. Now it takes months to carry people to Mars.However, by 2100, it may take only two or three days.Secondly, scientists will be able to grow special plants on Mars. And those plants can bring water and air for us.Thirdly, life on Mars will be better. People will have more living space and robots will do most of our work. There will probably be no schools. Every student will have a computer at home. They can study, do their homework and take tests in online schools.However, there are problems. Mars has less gravity （引力）than Earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high into space. And food will probably be in strange shapes and will not be so delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will make many people feel sick.( )36. where can you read this passage?A. in a magazine about space.B. in a story bookC. in a magazine about plants.D. in a story book( )37. It may take us ______ to go to Mars by spaceships now.A . two or three days B. a few months C. two or three weeks D. a few years ( )38.

You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can’t open the window. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to go out of the airport and into cities.I like traveling by train,. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open thewindows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.I also like cars. You can start your journey when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus station. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
