Millions watched that first lunar landing on black and white television sets, their hearts in their mouths, aware of how arduous and hazardous an undertaking it was, and of the many things that could go wrong. With Armstrong’s now famous words “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”, what had once been considered impossible had now been achieved. Guided by a computer that was much less powful than the ones used by today’s average school students, all three astronauts of the Apollo 11 mission made it safely back to Earth. 1. What do we know about the first lunar landing? A. It was a great success. B. It took off in Kennedy Space Center. C. People were not excited about it. D. People were accustomed to the idea of space travel. 3. What was the change after Armstrong first set foot on the Moon? 2. What’s the main idea of Para.1? The first Moon landing.

By the early 1980s, the great rockets previously used in the American space programme had been replaced by the space shuttle. When the Challenger space shuttle took off on 28 January 1986, the world seemed to have lost its wonder at the amazing achievements of the astronauts involved. 3. What was the change after Armstrong first set foot on the Moon?

It was special because Christa McAuliffe aged 37, an ordinary teacher and mother, was about to become the first civilian in space. She planned to give two 15-minute lessons from orbit: the first to demonstrate the controls of the spacecraft and explain how gravity worked, and the second to describe the objectives of the Challenger programme. Christa hoped to communicate a sense of excitement and rekindle interest in the space programme. With the eyes of students across the nation upon her, she might have inspired an entirely new generation of astronauts and space scientists. Read and Think: 1. What was special about the Challenger launch? 2. What was the mission of the teacher? 3. What kind of influence could she bring? It was special because Christa McAuliffe aged 37, an ordinary teacher and mother, was about to become the first civilian in space.

"I can remember that day so clearly, watching the take-off on TV at school," said one student. "There was an ordinary teacher on the Challenger, and we were all very excited. We didn't have much patience waiting for the launch. We had seen the smiling faces of the astronauts waving to the world as they stepped into（步入） the shuttle.
