Scientists have always wanted to know more about the universe.
Years ago they knew many things about the moon. They know how big it was and how far away it was from the earth. But they wanted to know more about it . They thought the best way was to send men to the moon.
The moon is about 384,000 kilometers away from the earth. A plane cannot fly to the moon because the air reaches only 240 kilometers away from the earth. But something can fly even when there is no air. That is a rocket.
How does a rocket fly? There is gas(气体) in the rocket. When the gas is made very hot inside the rocket, it will rush out of the end of the rocket, so it can make the rocket fly up into the sky.
Rockets can fly far out into the space. Rockets With men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets without men in them have flown to another planet(行星) much farther away than the moon. One day rockets may be able to go to any place in space.

It’s over three years since I began to learn English. I am glad that I am getting on well with it.
I find English quite difficult, but very interesting. When I first started, I thought I had only to remember the new words and learn some grammars. I know little about English idioms(习语). I thought each English word has the same meaning in Chinese. When I learned to say “I see a book on the desk”, I thought the English word “see” was just like the Chinese word “kan”. So one day when my teacher asked me, “What are you doing?” I answered, “I’m seeing a book.” “That’s wrong.” The teacher said. “You don’t see a book. You read a book. You can’t use an English word like a Chinese one. Be sure not to make the same mistake again.”
After that I began to pay more attention to the differences between Chinese and English. For example, in English we say a “high mountain”, but a “tall man”. In Chinese we use the same word “ gao” for both. Again in English we say “take part in the sports meeting”, “attend a meeting” and “join the army”, while in Chinese we can use “can jia” for all three. Interesting, isn’t it?
So to study English doesn’t only mean hard work, it can be great fun, too! We not only have to pay attention to pronunciation, grammar, spelling and handwriting, we also have to understand English idiom. We can learn English well only in that way!
But all this is only a beginning and I still have a long way to go. I’ll try my best and work even harder than before. I must speak and listen to English more both in and out of class. I must learn English well so that I work well when I grow up.
58. When I first started English I _______.
A. knew more English words B. knew some English idioms
C. used an English word like a Chinese one D. found English easy and interesting
59. I began to pay more attention to the differences between Chinese and English ______.
A. when I began to learn English
B. when I said “I see book on the desk”
C. before I began to learn English
D. after the teacher told me not to use an English word like a Chinese one
60. We should speak and listen to English_________.
A. only in class B. out of class
C. both in and out of class D. either in or out of class
61. To study English well, we have to ______.
A. remember the new words and learn some grammars
B. know the differences between Chinese and English
C. pay attention to pronunciation, spelling, handwriting and idioms
D. do all the above things

When I was a young boy, I was 78 shy to talk to anyone. My classmates often laughed at me. I was sad but could do nothing. Later, something happened, and it changed my life. It was an English speech contest. My mother asked me to take 79 in it. What a terrible idea! It meant I had to speak before all the 80 and students of my school!
