However, scientists were determined to realise that dream. After many experiments, they succeeded in making rockets that could escape Earth's gravity. On 4 October 1957, the Sputnik 1 satellite was launched by the USSR and successfully orbited around Earth. Afterwards, the USSR focused on sending people into space, and on 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first person in the world to enter space. Over eight years later, on 20 July 1969, American astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon, famously saying, “That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.” Following this, there were many more important space achievements. For example, on 5 September 1977, America’s NASA space agency launched Voyager 1 to study deep space, and it still transmits data to this day. And the International Space Station (1998) has provided a continuous human presence in space, with astronauts from many different countries on board. 在 20 世纪中叶以前，大多数人都认为进入太空只是一个永远无法实现的梦想。然而，科学家们决心要实现这个梦想。经过无数次实验，他们成功研制出了能够脱离地球引力的火箭。1957 年 10 月 4 日，苏联发射了 “旅伴者 1 号” 卫星，并成功环绕地球运行。此后，苏联专注于载人太空飞行。1961 年 4 月 12 日，尤里・加加林成为世界上第一个进入太空的人。八年多后，1969 年 7 月 20 日，美国宇航员尼尔・阿姆斯特朗踏上月球，说出了那句名言：“对一个人来说，这是一小步，对人类来说，这是一大步。”在此之后，太空探索取得了更多重要成就。例如，1977 年 9 月 5 日，美国国家航空航天局（NASA）发射了 “旅行者 1 号” 探测器，用于探索深空，该探测器至今仍在传回数据。而 1998 年投入使用的国际空间站，让人类实现了在太空的持续驻留，来自多个国家的宇航员都曾在此执行任务。 Although scientists try to make sure nothing goes wrong, accidents can still happen. For example, all the astronauts on the Soyuz 11, Challenger, and Columbia spacecraft died during their missions. However, while such disasters brought much sadness and disappointment, the desire to explore the universe did not die. This is because people believe in the importance of carrying on space exploration despite the huge risks. 随然科学家们极力确保万无一失，但事故仍时有发生。例如，“联盟 11 号” “挑战者号” 和 “哥伦比亚号” 航天飞机上的宇航员，都在任务中不幸遇难。然而，尽管这些灾难带来了巨大的悲痛与失望，人类探索宇宙的渴望从未熄灭。这是因为人们相信，即便面临巨大风险，太空探索也有着不可替代的重要意义。 China’s space programme started later than those of Russia and the US, but it has made great progress in a short time. China became the third country in the world to independently send humans into space in 2003, when Yang Liwei successfully orbited Earth in the Shenzhou 5 spacecraft. Then Shenzhou 6 and 7 completed a second manned orbit and the first Chinese spacewalk, followed by the vehicle Jade Rabbit being sent to the moon to study its surface. 中国的航天事业起步晚于俄罗斯和美国，但在短时间内取得了巨大进步。2003 年，随着杨利伟乘坐 “神舟五号” 飞船成功环绕地球，中国成为世界上第三个独立实现载人航天的国家。此后，“神舟六号” 和 “神舟七号” 分别完成了第二次载人玩绕地球飞行以及中国人的首次太空行走；随后，“玉兔号” 月球车被送往月球开展月表探测。 On 23 July 2020, China sent Tianwen 1 to explore the surface of Mars. It arrived in February 2021 and then sent back lots of valuable information. And from 2021 to 2022, China completed a number of rocket missions to establish its own space station. In 2022, the launch of the Mengtian module signalled the basic completion of the Tiangong Space Station. This modern space station will allow astronauts to conduct many important experiments, greatly furthering our understanding of the universe. 2020 年 7 月 23 日，中国发射 “天问一号” 火星探测器，探索火星表面。探测器于 2021 年 2 月抵达火星，传回了大量宝贵数据。2021 年至 2022 年间，中国通过多次火箭发射任务，建成了自己的空间站。2022 年，“梦天” 实验舱的发射，标志着天宫空间站基本建成。这座现代化的空间站将支持宇航员开展大量重要实验，极大加深我们对宇宙的理解。 The future of space exploration remains bright. Many countries have plans to further study planets like Mars and Jupiter. Despite the difficulties, scientists hope to make more valuable discoveries that will enable the human race to survive well into the future. 太空探索的未来依旧光明。许多国家都计划进一步研究火星、木星等行星。尽管困难重重，科学家们仍希望能取得更多有价值的发现，让人类得以在未来长久生存下去。 To explore the unknown world; to seek out new life and new civilization; to create new technologies which could have benefits for Earth; to gather knowledge of the universe; to solve the problem of energy shortages on Earth... 1. Why is it important to explore space? 2. What can we do as a senior high school student? We should study hard to be a useful person to make contribution to society. Every individual can make a big difference to our country. Enlightening THANKS Lavf58.20.100 Packed by Bilibili XCoder v2.0.2 Lavf58.29.100 Bilibili VXCode Swarm Transcoder v0.3.73 $
