Today, we don't just dream; we explore. China has sent spaceships to the moon. This is called the lunar exploration program（探月工程）. Astronauts have traveled to space and lived on the Tiangong space station. They do science experiments there. Our journey from ancient myths to modern science is amazing. The old stories were full of imagination. Now, we use rockets and technology to really visit space. Both the stories and the science teach us to be curious and brave. The dream of exploring the universe is always alive. 词语积累 1. myths n. 神话 2.explore v. 探索 3.journey n. 旅程 4. technology n. 技术 5.imagination n. 想象力 6.curious adj. 好奇的 7.brave adv. 勇敢的 8.universe n. 宇宙 9.space station 空间站 10.science experiments 科学实验 拓展活动 记录假设的太空种植实验，结合自然观察与英语写作，提升探究能力与跨学科表达。 阅读材料简介: 从神话传说到真实火箭，探索宇宙的奇妙旅程。 Task 1: Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions.
