Scientists think it might be useful for planning to
build homes for humans on other planets. 3
However, some problems have to be solved.
The first problem is where exactly the water on the
moon comes from. 4 Others believe it might
have gotten trapped when the moon was hot.
Using these special glass beads to support
future tasks about the moon sounds like a great
idea, right? 5 We need to find out how to
turn these glass beads into water in space.
Isnt it fascinating to learn about all these
discoveries? Theres still so much to find out in
space!

make yourself look friendly. If you cross your arms
on your breast(胸) and have your headphones on,
your body language is saying “ Stay away from
me!” 3
On the other hand, if youre feeling
confident, you can try and approach someone.
Just say “Hi, do you mind if I sit here?” 4
After that, continue the conversation, by

调香师的职业前景
“Many people think that perfumers are far
from their daily life,” said Weng Qian, 27, who
has been working as a perfumer for two years.
“However, many things we use require scents (气
味), from food products to toilet cleaner. ”
Now working as a perfumer, Weng is still
receiving training at Cinquiemes Sens, a French
perfume academy (学院). The learning process
for perfumers is usually about five to seven years,
and even longer for those who aim to be
31
independent perfumers creating their own
products. This is Wengs final goal.
“Although some people are born with higher
sensitivity to smell, our smell can be improved by
training,” Weng said. “ It is also the main thing
we do at school, smelling hundreds of scents to
train our nose to be more sensitive. The goal is to
build our own ‘scent library’. ”
Apart from these abilities, a perfumer also
needs sales and business skills. As the brains
behind new products, perfumers also sell them.
This makes the job complete, instead of the
“ artist ” character that people used to have in
mind.
Weng believes that perfumers have great
chances to develop in China, along with the
countrys fast-developing economy. “Essential oil
(精油) has been more and more ▲ in
China,” she said. There is also a new trend of
companies holding flavor-blending (调香) events
as a kind of value-added service. Perfumers are
invited to teach people how to make their own
scented candles and help promote perfuming.
