My dream of space travel
I have a big dream: to travel to space one day. I hope to see our blue Earth from the vast outer space with my own eyes. If I could go to space, I would take beautiful photos of the Earth and try some small scientific experiments. I also want to talk with astronauts and learn about their amazing experiences living in the space station.
To make my dream come true, I will study hard, especially in science and math. I’ll also keep doing sports to stay strong and healthy. I believe that with enough effort, my space dream will come true one day.

Come and share your thoughts on living on the moon!
My favorite saying goes, “________” We should keep this spirit and never stop exploring the moon, because it can bring great advantages to China. We won’t depend so much on the Earth’s limited resources, since we can develop new energy on the moon. Besides, it can provide more living space for people as our Earth becomes too crowded. So let’s move forward bravely for a new and bright future on the moon. (Xinyi, Xichang)
Yes. It would be exciting to go to space by rocket, as you’d rocket off the ground really fast! Once you land on the lunar surface, where gravity (重力) is only one-sixth that of the Earth’s, you’ll surprisingly find yourself able to float (漂浮) around freely and lift super-heavy things easily—something you could only dream of doing on Earth. Best of all, with no thick atmosphere to block your sight, you could admire the shining Earth and bright stars in the silent sea of space. (Leo In, Toulouse)
My friend Susan and I love enjoying the beautiful moon together at night, but if humans live on the moon, we’ll no longer be able to appreciate such beauty. Building homes and sending food and water there would cost billions too. On top of that, the moon’s atmosphere is too thin to support human life, which means we’d need even more money to create a livable environment. So I think we should solve today’s problems on Earth first, like world hunger. (Kate DeBusk, Greeley)
26. In which part of the online newspaper can we read the material?
A. THE WORLD B. FOR OR AGAINST?
C. TECHNOLOGY D. STAR STORIES
27. What is Xinyi’s favorite saying?
A. The grass is always greener on the other side.
B. A journey of a thousand miles begins with every single step.
C. A craftsman who wishes to do his work well must first sharpen his tools.
D. The road ahead is long and has no ending; I’ll search high and low with my will unbending.
28. What is the best part of living on the moon for Leo?
A. Floating around freely. B. Lifting heavy things easily.
C. Watching the Earth and stars. D. Rocketing off the ground fast.
29. According to Kate, what should humans focus on first?
A. Building more homes. B. Solving world hunger.
C. Finding new energy. D. Making more rockets.
30. Who believes that exploring the moon can help with Earth’s limited resources and space?
A. Xinyi. B. Leo. C. Susan. D. Kate.

The hotel is called Voyager Space Station (VSS). It is like a sky wheel. There will be rooms, restaurants, bars, gyms, reading rooms and scientific research laboratories. It’s eco-friendly by getting power from the sun. It will have rooms for up to 400 people, including scientists, astronauts, and even some people to live there for a long time. You’ll pay 5 million dollars for each 3-day stay.
The hotel will serve traditional “space food”—like freeze-dried ice cream. You’re also going to have top cooks making really good food. You can go on spacewalks to enjoy the beauty of the earth and space. And the most amazing part? You can enjoy 32 sunrises and sunsets each day because the hotel travels around the earth very quickly.
“The building of the VSS will start in 2026 and welcome its first visitors in 2027. It will be the world’s first space hotel,” scientists say.
In fact, living in space is not just a dream anymore. For students like us, maybe one day we can also visit the VSS on a school trip! Space travel will become just like taking an airplane trip today. So keep dreaming and studying hard—the stars are waiting for you!

You’ll pay 5 million dollars for each 3-day stay.
The hotel will serve traditional “space food”—like freeze-dried ice cream. You’re also going to have top cooks making really good food. You can go on spacewalks to enjoy the beauty of the earth and space. And the most amazing part? You can enjoy 32 sunrises and sunsets each day because the hotel travels around the earth very quickly.
“The building of the VSS will start in 2026 and welcome its first visitors in 2027. It will be the world’s first space hotel,” scientists say.
In fact, living in space is not just a dream anymore. For students like us, maybe one day we can also visit the VSS on a school trip! Space travel will become just like taking an airplane trip today. So keep dreaming and studying hard—the stars are waiting for you!

Come and share your thoughts on living on the moon!
My favorite saying goes, “________” We should keep this spirit and never stop exploring the moon, because it can bring great advantages to China. We won’t depend so much on the Earth’s limited resources, since we can develop new energy on the moon. Besides, it can provide more living space for people as our Earth becomes too crowded. So let’s move forward bravely for a new and bright future on the moon. (Xinyi, Xichang)
Yes. It would be exciting to go to space by rocket, as you’d rocket off the ground really fast! Once you land on the lunar surface, where gravity (重力) is only one-sixth that of the Earth’s, you’ll surprisingly find yourself able to float (漂浮) around freely and lift super-heavy things easily—something you could only dream of doing on Earth. Best of all, with no thick atmosphere to block your sight, you could admire the shining Earth and bright stars in the silent sea of space. (Leo In, Toulouse)
My friend Susan and I love enjoying the beautiful moon together at night, but if humans live on the moon, we’ll no longer be able to appreciate such beauty. Building homes and sending food and water there would cost billions too. On top of that, the moon’s atmosphere is too thin to support human life, which means we’d need even more money to create a livable environment. So I think we should solve today’s problems on Earth first, like world hunger. (Kate DeBusk, Greeley)
26. In which part of the online newspaper can we read the material?
A. THE WORLD B. FOR OR AGAINST?
C. TECHNOLOGY D. STAR STORIES
27. What is Xinyi’s favorite saying?
A. The grass is always greener on the other side.
B. A journey of a thousand miles begins with every single step.
C. A craftsman who wishes to do his work well must first sharpen his tools.
D. The road ahead is long and has no ending; I’ll search high and low with my will unbending.
28. What is the best part of living on the moon for Leo?
A. Floating around freely. B. Lifting heavy things easily.
C. Watching the Earth and stars. D. Rocketing off the ground fast.
29. According to Kate, what should humans focus on first?
A. Building more homes. B. Solving world hunger.
C. Finding new energy. D. Making more rockets.
30. Who believes that exploring the moon can help with Earth’s limited resources and space?
A. Xinyi. B. Leo. C. Susan. D. Kate.
【答案】26. B 27. D 28. C 29. B 30. A
【导语】本文是三位来自不同地方的人对“移居月球”这一话题发表的看法,分别表达了支持(Xinyi和Leo)和反对(Kate)的观点。
26. 推理判断题。文章标题为“Come and share your thoughts on living on the moon!”,内容呈现了支持和反对两种不同观点,因此最可能出现在报纸的“FOR OR AGAINST?”(支持还是反对)栏目,故选B。
27. 细节理解题。Xinyi在开头说“My favorite saying goes...”,结合她后面提到“never stop exploring”“move forward bravely”等探索精神,最符合D选项“路漫漫其修远兮,吾将上下而求索”(屈原《离骚》),故选D。
28. 细节理解题。Leo在最后指出“Best of all, with no thick atmosphere to block your sight, you could admire the shining Earth and bright stars”,说明对他来说最重要的部分是观赏地球和星星,故选C。
29. 推理判断题。Kate在最后指出“I think we should solve today’s problems on Earth first, like world hunger.”,说明人类应首先解决世界饥饿问题,故选B。
30. 细节理解题。Xinyi指出“we won’t depend so much on the Earth’s limited resources”和“it can provide more living space”,说明她认为探索月球有助于解决地球资源有限和空间拥挤的问题,故选A。
