Read the following paragraph and make notes first and then its summary. (CO3)
Astronauts are people who travel on space ships. They need to have a very clean home. They
travel far from Earth. We need clean kitchens everywhere on earth and in space. Astronauts
have to solve two problems: how to get food and how to keep their spaceship clean. Here is
how they solved the food problem. At first, the astronauts took tubes of food with them into
space. They would squeeze a tube and eat semi-liquid food. It did not taste great, but since they
did not need to take dishes or silverware with them, they had no dishes to wash. Today’s
spaceships have a bigger menu. Astronauts can eat from bowls. In fact, they take cereal and
other standard foods with them. The foods are packaged in special containers to keep them
fresh. They use knives, forks, and spoons. One unusual item on their table is a pair of scissors.
They use the scissors to open the food packages. They can eat right from the package. They
have a kitchen on the spaceship. Its oven can heat food to 170 degrees. The kitchen has water
and sets of meals that come on trays. The astronauts choose their menu before they go into
space. They take a lot of food with them. The astronauts keep bread and fresh fruits and
vegetables in a special food locker. How do they keep the kitchen clean? They do not have to
worry about mice or other rodents. They make sure that there are no rodents before the ship
leaves. But sometimes mice travel on the ship. Those mice are part of experiments. They live in
cages. How do astronauts keep their trays clean? That is another health problem the astronauts
solve. They need to stay healthy in space. To carry a lot of water to wash trays would be a lot of
extra weight. They pack wet wipes in plastic bags. They use them to clean trays. So, their
kitchen is clean and they stay healthy.Read the following paragraph and make notes first and then its summary. (CO3)
