P21 A5
We have just received a message from our spaceship to Mars.
This is our 20th spaceship to Mars./ Luckily our spaceship has discovered people on Mars there. After
a long talk, we have known more about them. They have never sent us a message because they don’t know how to communicate with us. They have not visited the earth because they don’t know how to fly to our planet, and they prefer life on Mars.
We have done surveys of many planets
and we are very excited to get good news from Mars. We believe we will receive messages from other planets if we keep trying.
