①As the weather gets warmer, there are few things that are better t d than travel. But traveling might nt be that fun fr everyne, especially fr thse wh have mtin sickness (晕动症) .
②Mtin sickness is als called travel sickness. It is quite cmmn fr many peple. Because f different ways f travel, we can als call it carsickness r seasickness. Peple with mtin sickness feel very uncmfrtable while they are mving. They feel sick, like the rm arund them wn’t stp mving. It is ften believed that mtin sickness happens when yur senses (感官) can nt understand each ther well, Scientific American reprted. We use different parts f ur bdy t sense mvement. Our eyes tell us if we are mving. The inner ears have a special part that helps us sense ur directin and balance (方向和平衡) .
③When yu mve arund, fr example, these bdy parts wrk well tgether. But when yu are in a car r n an airplane, yur bdy parts dn’t knw hw t wrk with each ther. Yur inner ear tells yur bdy that yu’re mving, but yur eyes say yu’re sitting still because yu can’t see that yu’re mving. This mismatch (错配) gives us mtin sickness.
④ This may be because they have certain genes (基因) that stp mismatching senses, Bethann Hrmatka, a genetics scientist frm the US, tld the Atlantic.
⑤Althugh there are many ways t deal with mtin sickness, scientists believe that the key is t simply try and adapt t it. Fr example, sme astrnauts d special exercises that give them a little mtin sickness. After a week r tw, the astrnauts becme used t it and dn’t feel uncmfrtable anymre, Sam Puma, a NASA flight dctr, tld the BBC.
( )46. What can we infer (推断) frm the passage?
A. Mtin sickness is very cmmn fr everyne.
B. Tm may have mtin sickness because he sleeps all day in autumn.
C. Astrnauts have mtin sickness because they take special exercises.
D. Mary may have mtin sickness because she ften feels uncmfrtable and sick in a taxi.
( )47. Which sentence can be put int ?
Besides, ur genes are anther reasn.
B. Hwever, sme special genes in the bdy help a lt.
C. But mtin sickness makes little difference t sme peple.
D. Scientists are trying t find ways t help peple with mtin sickness.
( )48. What des the phrase “adapt t” mean in the last paragraph？
A. 制造 B. 适应 C. 忽略 D. 改变
( )49. What’s the best structure (结构) f this passage?
(Paragraph (段落) 1=① Paragraph 2= ②...)

As yur schldays start, yu might feel a bit wrried r nervus.Yu might feel kind f unhappy r angry. 51 But wuld yur favrite superher have these same feelings?
Behaviral (行为的) scientists studied what they call the “Batman Effect (效应)” in children. 52 Kids wn’t feel as much nervus as befre if they think themselves like a strng persn such as a superher like Batman.
