A
Scientists are very interested in the universe, and they always want to know more about it. Years ago, they knew many things about the moon. They knew how big it is and how far away it is from the earth. But they wanted to know more about it.They thought the best way was to send men to the moon. The moon is about 384,000 kilometers away from the earth. A plane cannot fly to the moon because air reaches only 240 kilometers away from the earth. But something can fly even when there is no air. That is the rocket.
How does a rocket fly? There is gas in the rocket. When the gas is made very hot inside the rocket, it will rush out of the end of the rocket, so it can make the rocket fly up into the sky. Rockets can fly into space. Rockets with men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets without men in them have flown to another planet much farther than the moon. One day, rockets may be able to go to any place in space.

B[2019预测]
The Earth is our home. It has air that we can breathe. It has water for us to drink. It has plants and animals that we can eat. The Earth is neither too hot nor too cold for us. It has everything we need to live.
We are on earth, but we can see things that are not on earth. Early in the morning, we can see the sun rise. During the day, the sun seems to move across the sky. Late in the day, we can see the sun go down. But the sun is not really moving around us. We are the ones who are moving. Every morning, we turn toward the sun. Every night, we turn away from it. Every year, we go around it. Earth is our spaceship. All of us in the ship are riding around the sun.
At night, we can often see the moon and stars. From the faraway earth stars look small. But in fact, stars are really big. They give off light.
