When Sean was only 5, his uncle Paul once drove the little boy home in his police car. Sean was interested in the car, the lights and the uniform. He decided to be a hero like Paul. However, when Sean graduated from high school, he followed his teacher's advice and finally became a reporter for a newspaper and then married. During the years, he changed several jobs but nothing made him really happy. Actually he had never really given up his childhood dream to become a policeman. His wife could not bear this and left him. Sean was forced to move back to St. Ignace, where his dad lived. “I feel like a failure.” Sean says. When his father encouraged him to search for a new job, the opportunity came. Phoenix was in great need of police officers. and one of Sean's old friends emailed him, "Do you still want to be a police officer? " Phoenix was a world away---2, 100 miles from St. Ignace, but Sean knew it was his last chance and he decided to catch it.

On January 3, 2019, Chang'e-4 became the first lunar probe(月球探测器) in history to successfully land. on the far side of the moon. The Earth's gravity slows the moon's rotation(自转), matching it to the speed of its orbit(公转), Therefore, the far side of the moon is almost "dark" and has never been seen. It's this sense of the unknown that makes the far side of the moon such an interesting place for scientific and space research. Being blown by solar(太阳的) winds, the far side may have the special minerals (矿物质). For this reason, Chang'e-4 will study the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface and any mineral found by the spacecraft. Chang'e-4 is also carrying flower seeds, potatoes and silkworm eggs to see whether life is possible on the moon. If it is, then the moon will become a possible choice for space travel in the future. However, research of the "dark" side isn't easy. As the far side is blocked(阻断)off from us, radio noise coming off Earth is also blocked. This is why China's relay satellite(中继卫星) Queqiao was sent up in May, 2018. Thanks to Queqiao, the communication problem between Earth and Chang'e-4 has been well solved. Power supply(电源供应) is also a challenge to the task. Chang'e-4 gets energy from the sun through its solar panels. As we know, a lunar day has the length(长度) of 28 Earth days. After Chang'e-4 was sent up on December 8, 2018, it took the probe over 20 days to orbit the moon to be in a position to be able to land in moon daylight and use its solar panels. Luckily, everything goes well. Chang'e-4 has worked on the dark" side for over 5 months. It has sent back many photos of the far side of the moon and has been used to carry out some scientific experiments. The New York Times used the word "groundbreaking" to praise the task and wrote that "it will offer help to the history and development of the moon". (　　　)4. When was Chang'e-4 sent up? A. In May, 2018. B. On December 8, 2018. C. On January 3, 2019. D. Not mentioned in the passage. (　　　)5. The main tasks of Chang'e-4 don't include _________ .
