Researchers looked at high?tech MRI （核磁共振成像） pictures of the brains of 26 astronauts who spent time in space. 12 of the2（astronaut） spent two weeks on the Space Shuttle， and 14 spent six weeks on the International Space Station. All of them3（experience） increases and decreases in the size of different parts of the brain. The longer an astronaut spent in space， the4（big） the size differences were.

The research produced some5（interest） findings. One is that no gravity6（mean） fluids （液） do not drop in the body， so there is a shift in the brains position inside the skull. The brain becomes either smaller or bigger. The findings could help doctors to treat people with problems7（cause） by long?term bed rest.
