Exercise 3

RcvponqqCFc3A2

Drag and drop sentences to create a dialogue about space food. Elementy do uszeregowania: 1. Yes, you could see astronauts taking food pouches from the storage space, rehydrating or warming them, and then eating together in the dining area while floating in the air., 2. No, it was attached to trays and a special dining table with Velcro fasteners, and the table was suspended by tethers. Most of the food looked normal, but when they wanted to drink something and squeezed the pouch, there were drops of liquid floating out from the straw, it looked surreal!, 3. No, should I?, 4. I bet it did. But you said that they grow food in space. How come?, 5. Yes, now it’s also Chinese cabbage, red Russian kale, and zinnia flowers. They plan to grow tomatoes and peppers in the future., 6. Wow, that’s really something. You’ve convinced me, I must see this documentary as soon as possible!, 7. Oh! That really sounds interesting, tell me more about it. Did they show the actual meals?, 8. Of course you should! It’s a story about what is eaten at the International Space Station. They showed fascinating clips of astronauts preparing, eating, and even growing food in space!, 9. Have you seen this documentary about space food?, 10. It must have been some sight! Did their food float too?, 11. Amazing! I didn’t know that you could grow lettuce in space!, 12. Yes, they said that the first food was grown by the ISS crew in 2015 and it was red romaine lettuce.

Type in the missing translation of the Polish words in brackets to fill the gaps in the text. The International Space Station has been continuously inhabited since 2000. 1. (Ulepszenia technologiczne) Tu uzupełnij have enabled astronauts to stay there for about six months with a supply of food which is resistant to 2. (zepsucie) Tu uzupełnij and can remain (jadalne)Tu uzupełnij all that time and even longer. About six months before the launch, astronauts are asked to participate in a taste test at NASA centre, where they can choose the food they would like to eat during their mission. They can also 3. (poprosić o przekąski)Tu uzupełnij or even favourite 4. (przyprawy) Tu uzupełnij off the standard menu as long as they comply with microbiological and 5. (okresu przechowywania) Tu uzupełnij requirements. The most commonly requested item is tortillas, probably because NASA allocates only one per day, while bread is not allowed at all. Most of the foods comes in 6. (stabilizowanej termicznie formie) Tu uzupełnij, but some is also 7. (liofilizowane) Tu uzupełnij or in natural form. All meat is always 8.

What surprised me most in the text about space food was…

I didn’t realise…

I wonder if…

Another thing which was interesting to learn was…

And who would have thought that…, I thought that…

I also didn’t know that…

What surprised me most in the text about space food was the information that astronauts have problems smelling and tasting food the same way as on Earth. I didn’t realise how much it could influence their choice of food – no wonder they go for very spicy meals! I wonder if that preference changes once they are back on Earth.

Another thing which was interesting to learn was how important scissors were on board the ISS – you can’t eat without them! And who would have thought that astronauts could keep them and other personal equipment? I thought that everything had to be returned and accounted for when they returned.

I also didn’t know that you could eat fresh fruit and vegetables in space. I supposed they had to go through some complicated process to be edible there.

Exercise 8

Based on the information from the text in the “Przeczytaj” section and the interactive illustration from the “Multimedium” section write a one‑day menu for an astronaut (three meals and a snack). Use 6–8 sentences.

For breakfast, I suggest…

It’s delicious and…

For lunch I would choose…, such as…

They are healthy and/but…

For dinner I would recommend… because…

You can add…

For dessert I would suggest… or…

I think… would be a good choice of… with your meals.

For breakfast, I suggest tortillas with peanut butter spread. It’s delicious and it leaves no crumbs.

For lunch I would choose some vegetables, such as rehydratable spinach or fresh carrots if there is a new supply. They are healthy but need to be eaten quickly, because they are not dehydrated.

For dinner I would recommend a freeze‑dried shrimp cocktail because it has a strong, spicy flavour. You can add irradiated beef steak to it if you think that it won’t satisfy your hunger.

For dessert I would suggest freeze‑dried ice cream or some chocolate candies, which can give you a lot of fun when you try catching them with your mouth while they float in the air.

I think that potable water or powdered orange juice would be a good, healthy choice of beverage with your meals.

Exercise 9

During the summer you visited the Space Travel Museum. Write a blog entry (100–150 words) in which you:

You will see…

It was the Space Travel Museum in Washington, which I had wanted to visit for ages, as there is always something interesting to see.

What I saw at that time was an exhibition of artifacts connected to space missions. I got especially interested in the space food section, where I saw samples of freeze‑dried snacks or powdered beverages. There were also some utensils and tools on display.

I was really impressed by the collection gathered at the museum. I hadn’t realised how challenging eating in space must be but thanks to this exhibition I learned a lot about space station reality.

I can wholeheartedly recommend the exhibition. If you ever go to Washington, make sure you save one day to visit this amazing museum there. You will see sights out of this world, that’s for sure!
