Giải thích kết quả :
Sai. Đáp án đúng là: Astronauts have special jobs to do while they’re in space.
Vì: “Fortunately, astronauts have spacesuits. Spacesuits protect the body, and they also provide air
and air pressure…But on a spaceship, astronauts experience a sunrise or sunset every 45 minutes,
making for a 90-minute day. This throws off the natural rhythms of the body, including periods of
wakefulness and sleep… Astronauts can become thin and weak, so they need to exercise for at
least 90 minutes every day to stay strong and healthy.”
