“Kaizen”, a Japanese word, is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes. During World WarⅡ, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes. After the war, the idea was brought to a rebuilding Japan. It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “Kaizen”, which means “improvement”.

Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything.

26、Friends are important in our life. Some people even say they can't live without friendship. Friendship is one mind in two bodies. Your friend is the person who knows all about you and still likes you. A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.

Some friends come into our lives for just a short time. Others come and stay forever. Think about your closest friends. How long have you known each other? Some people say that their family members are their best friends. Others say they have known their closest friends for many years. And some great friends haven't known each other all that long, but know right away that there is a connection or bond between them. Could it be that there is a twin spirit out there for each of us?

What turns a stranger into a friend? Do you know right away if you are going to like someone? Some people think that any stranger can become a friend if they spend enough time together. That may be true for some people. But one thing most of us agree on is that true friendship seems to happen when people have something in common. Perhaps we can see a part of ourselves in our friends. Maybe seeing the good in them helps us to see the good in us as well.

27、   Funny astronauts are wanted by NASA(美国国家航空航天局) which needs astronauts to join the flight to Mars in 2030. 

A trip to Mars and back to Earth would take around two years in a small spacecraft. So the team needs astronauts with a sense of humor during the long journey. They can help everyone get along well. They can also make the journey more enjoyable.

A scientist at the University of Florida told the newspaper, “ As astronauts we will fly the spaceship and do scientific experiments such as growing plants and repair the space ship. Many unpredictable(难以预料的) difficulties are waiting for us.” Then He added, “In stressful situations, perhaps humor is a way to know we aren’t alone. By laughing together, we share our stress. Then we can focus on our jobs instead of just worrying.”

Here are some of the requirements for astronauts from NASA. They must be smart, able to stay calm all the time and tell stories as well as jokes. Also, the astronauts need to have crazy wig(假发), oversized boots and big red noses. However being funny is not enough. They are supposed to be excellent scientists and engineers who can finish hard training. 

根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。

【1】NASA needs funny astronauts to join the flight to the moon in 2030.

【2】A trip to Mars and back to Earth isn’t a long journey.

【3】Funny members can help astronauts get along well, laugh together, share stress and focus on jobs.

【4】It is necessary for funny astronauts to stay excited all the time.

【5】The funny astronauts must be excellent scientists and engineers who can finish hard training.
