B
Papa,
as
a
son
of
a
dirt-poor
farmer,
left
school
early
and
went
to
work
in
a
factory,for
education
was
for
the
rich
then.So,
the
world
became
his
school.With
great
interest,
he
read
everything
he
could
lay
his
hands
on,
listened
to
the
town
elders
and
learned
about
the
world
beyond
his
tiny
hometown."There's
so
much
to
learn,"
he'd
say.“Though
we're
born
stupid,
only
the
stupid
remain
that
way.”He
was
determined
that
none
of
his
children
would
be
denied(拒绝)an
education.
Thus,
Papa
insisted
that
we
learn
at
least
one
new
thing
each
day.And
dinner
time
seemed
perfect
for
sharing
what
we
had
learned.We
would
talk
about
the
news
of
the
day;no
matter
how
insignificant,
it
was
never
taken
lightly.Papa
would
listen
carefully
and
was
ready
with
some
comment,always
to
the
point.
Then
came
the
moment-the
time
to
share
the
day's
new
learning.
Papa,
at
the
head
of
the
table,
would
push
back
his
chair
and
pour
a
glass
of
red
wine,ready
to
listen.
Felice,
“he'd
say,”tell
me
what
you
learned
today.“learned
that
the
population
of
Nepal
is...”
Silence.
Papa
was
thinking
about
what
was
said,
as
if
the
salvation(拯救)of
the
world
would
depend
upon
it.“The
population
of
Nepal.Hmm.Well...”he'd
say.“Get
the
map;
let's
see
where
Nepal
is.”
And
the
whole
family
went
on
a
search
for
Nepal.
This
same
experience
was
repeated
until
each
family
member
had
a
turn.Dinner
ended
only
after
we
had
a
clear
understanding
of
at
least
half
a
dozen
such
facts.
As
children,
we
thought
very.little
about
these
educational
wonders.Our
family,however,was
growing
together,sharing
experiences
and
participating
in
one
another’s
education
And
by
looking
at
us,listening
to
us,
respecting
our
input,
affirming(肯定)our
value;
giving
us
a
sense
of
dignity,
Papa
-was
unquestionably
our
most
influential
teacher.
Later
during
my
training
as
a
future
teacher
studied
with
some
of
the
most
famous
educators.They
were
imparting(传授)what
Papa
had
known
all
along-the
value
of
continual
learning.His
technique
has
served
me
well
all
my
life.Not
a
single
day
has
been
wasted,
though
I
can
never
tell
when
knowing
the
population,of
Nepal
might
prove
useful.

C
Betty
and
Harold
have
been
married
for
years.
But
one-thing
still
puzzles
old
Harold.
How
is
it
that
he
can
leave
Betty
and
her
friend
Joan
sitting
on
the
sofa,
talking,
go
out
to
a
ballgame,
come
back
three
and
a
half
hours
later,
and
they're
still
sitting
on
the
sofa?
Talking?
What
in
the
world,
Harold
wonders,
do
they
have
to
talk
about?
Betty
shrugs(耸肩).Talk?
We're
friends.
Researching
this
matter
called
friendship,
psychologist
Lillian
Rubin
spent
two
years
interviewing
more
than
two
hundred
women
and
men.
No
matter
what
their
age,
their
job,
their
sex,
the
results
were
completely
clear:
women
have
more
friendships
than
men,
and
the
difference
in
the
content
and
the
quality
of
those
friendships
is
“marked
and
unmistakable.”
More
than
two-thirds
of
the
single
men
Rubin
interviewed
could
not
name
a
best
friend.
Those
who
could
were
likely
to
name
a
woman.
Yet
three-quarters
of
the
single
women
had
no
problem
naming
a
best
friend,
and
almost
always
it
was
a
woman.
More
married
men
than
women
named
their
wife/husband
as
a
best
friend,
most
trusted
person,
or
the
one
they
would
turn
to
in
time
of
emotional
distress(痛苦).“Most
women,”
says
Rubin,
“identified
at
least
one,
usually
more,
trusted
friends
to
whom
they
could
turn
in
a
troubled
moment,
and
they
spoke
openly
about
the
importance
of
these
relationships
in
their
lives.”
“In
general,”
writes
Rubin
in
her
new
book,
“women's
friendships
with
each
other
rest
on
shared
emotions
and
support,
but
men's
relationships
are
marked
by
shared
activities.
”“For
the
most
part”,
Rubin
says,
“interactions
between
men
are
emotionally
controlled-a
good
fit
with
the
social
requirements
of
“manly
behavior.”
“Even
when
a
man
is
said
to
be
a
best
friend,”
Rubin
writes,
“the
two
share
little
about
their
innermost
feelings.
While
a
woman's
closest
female
friend
might
be-the
first
to
tell
her
to
leave
a
failing
marriage,
it
wasn't
unusual
to
hear
a
man
say
he
didn't
know
his
friend's
marriage
was
in
serious
trouble
until
he
appeared
one
night
asking
if
he
could
sleep
on
the
sofa.”
45.
What
old
Harold
cannot
understand
or
explain
is
the

___
A.
women

so
much
to
share
B.
he
finds
his
wife
difficult
to
talk
to
C.
women
show
little
interest
in
ballgames
D.
he
is
treated
as
an
outsider
rather
than
a
husband
46.
Rubin's
study
shows
that
for
emotional
support
a
married
woman
is
more
likely
to
turn
to______.
A.
her
parents
B.
her
husband
C.
a
male
friend
D.
a
female
friend
47.
According

much
time

keep
their
private

Women
depend
on
others
in

decisions.
C.
women
are
more
serious
than
men
about
marriage.

often
take
sudden
action
to
end
their
marriages.
49.

research
done
by
psychologist
Rubin

problems
in
marriage

happy
and
successful

【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了女性对于友谊和男性对于友谊不同的态度和做法。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“What
in
the
world,
Harold
wonders,
do
they
have
to
talk
about?（哈罗德想知道，他们到底要谈什么？）”可知，Harold不能理解她们到底有多少要聊的内容。故选A项。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Yet
three-quarters
of
the
single
women
had
no
problem
naming
a
best
friend,
and
almost
always
it

they
could
turn

a

and
they

relationships
in
their
lives.””（然而，四分之三的单身女性可以毫不犹豫地说出最好的朋友，而且几乎都是女性。与女性相比，更多的已婚男性将自己的妻子/丈夫视为最好的朋友、最信任的人，或者在情绪低落时可以求助的人。“大多数女性，”鲁宾说，“至少有一个，通常更多，值得信赖的朋友，她们可以在遇到麻烦的时候向他们倾诉，并且公开谈论这些关系在她们生活中的重要性。”）”可推断，已婚女性为了获得情感上的支持，更倾向于求助于女性朋友。故选D项。

推理判断题。根据文章第五段“For
the
most
part,
Rubin
says,
interactions
between
men
are
emotionally
controlled-a
good
fit
with
the
social
requirements
of
"manly

be-the
first
to
tell
her

a

it
wasn't

sleep
on
the
sofa.(虽然一个女人最亲密的女性朋友可能是第一个告诉她离开一段失败的婚姻，但听到一个男人说直到他朋友有一天晚上出现问他，他才知道他朋友的婚姻陷入了严重的麻烦，这也并不罕见。)”可推断，社会不接受一个男人抱怨婚姻问题。故选B项。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Even
when
a
man
is
said
to
be
a
best
friend,”
Rubin
writes,
“the
two
share
little
about
their
innermost
feelings.”（“即使一个男人被说成是最好的朋友，”鲁宾写道，“他们也很少分享内心深处的感受。”）”可知，男人总是把自己的感情藏在心里。故选A项。
【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Researching
this
matter
called
friendship,
psychologist
Lillian
Rubin
spent
two
years
interviewing
more
than
two
hundred
women
and
men.（为了研究这个叫做友谊的问题，心理学家莉莉安·鲁宾花了两年时间采访了200多名男女。）”可知，鲁宾的实验围绕男性与女性的友谊为中心的。故选C项。
D
If
I
could
give
today's
young
people
three
wishes,
they
would
be:
More
hugs.
More
time
outside
in
nature.
More
belief
in
their
own
power
to
change
the
world.
While
most
people
understand
the
importance
of
the
first
two
wishes,
the
third
one
leaves
some
folks
wondering
why
young
people's
belief
in
their
own
power
is
so
essential.
Let's
start
with
the
idea
that
all
of
us-especially
young
people-need
heroes.
We
need
them
to
be
our
guides
on
the
difficult
trail(足迹)we
call
life
and
to
show
us
just
how
far
we
can
go.
And
we
need
heroes
today
more
than
ever.
Our
modern
society
is
terribly
confused
about
the
difference
between
a
celebrity
and
a
hero.
And
the
difference:
is
vital.
A
celebrity
is
all
about
fame(名望)-temporary,
superficial
fame,
usually
for
qualities
that
are
easy
to
see:
a
pretty
face,
a
great
dance
move.
A
hero，by
contrast,
is
about
character-qualities
under
the
surface
that
aren't
visible
until
they
take
action.
Heroes
are
all
around
us.
They
truly
hold
our
world
together,
through
their
unselfish
devotion
to
helping
others,
teaching
children,
and
protecting
the
environment.
They
don't
want
fame,
or
glory;
they
just
want
to
help.
In
so
many
ways,
these
unsung
heroes
pilot
the
boat
in
which
all
of
us
sail.
Yet,
young
people
hear
a
lot
more
about
celebrities
than
about
heroes
in
the
media.
The
hidden
message
they
get
from
all
this
is
that
their
self-worth
comes
from
what
they
buy-which
shoes,
which
cell
phone--not
who
they
are
down
inside.
What
gets
lost
in
this?
Young
people's
sense
of
their
own
potential
for
heroic
qualities--their
own
power
to
make
a
positive
difference
in
the
world.
Truth
is,
there
is
a
potential
hero,
a
future
difference
maker,
in
every
young
person.
Each
of
them,
from
whatever
background,
is
a
positive
force
who
can
do
something.
All
it
takes
for
that
to
be
true
is
belief.
How
do
we
help
young
people
believe
in
their
own
power?
The
best
way
is
simply
to
share
examples,
of
other
young
people
who
have
made
a
difference.
Ryan,
age
11,
has
worked
tirelessly
to
raise
money
to
provide
clean
drinking
water
to
African
villages.
When
he
first
heard
about
the
plight(困苦)of
African
children
who
died
from
impure
water,
Ryan
was
only
six
years
old.
In
the
next
five
years,
he
raised
over
$500,000-enough
to
build
over
70
water
wells.
Barbara,
age
17,
grew
up
on
a
farm
in
Texas.
When
she
realized
that
local
farmers
were
pouring
their
used
motor
oil
into
rivers,
causing
pollution,
she
organized
the
creation
of
a
recycling
center
for
crude(未加提炼的)oil.
Her
project
has
grown
to
include
18
recycling
centers
in
Texas.
The
list
could
continue.These
are
but
a
few
examples
of
young
people
who
have
discovered
that
they
can
build
on
their
own
energy
to
do
something
great.

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了作者认为当今年轻人拥有的三大愿望：更多的拥抱，更多的户外时间，更多的相信自己改变世界的力量。虽然大多数人都明白前两个愿望的重要性，但第三个愿望却让一些人疑惑为什么这是如此重要。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段第四句“Our
modern
society
is
terribly
confused
about
the
difference
between
a
celebrity
and
a
hero.”（我们现代社会对名人和英雄之间的区别非常困惑。）可知，作者引出了“名人和英雄的区别”，并在下文进行区分，整段文章其实就在讨论名人和英雄之间的区别。故选B项。
【51题详解】
词义猜测题。根据题干中提示词“on
top
of...face”（在......之上，表面）可知，superficial的意思是“表面的，浅显的”，即“没有深度的”，和without
depth同义。故选D项。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“They
truly
hold
our
world
together,
through
their
unselfish
devotion
to
helping
others,
teaching
children
protecting
the
environment.They
don't
want

just
want
to
help.
In
so
many
ways,
these
unsung
heroes
pilot
the
boat
in
which
all
of
us
sail.”（英雄让我们的世界团结在一起，他们无私的奉献，帮助别人，教育孩子，保护环境。他们不要名誉，或者荣耀。他们只是想帮忙。在很多方面，这些无名英雄引领着我们所有人航行）可知，英雄在这个世界上发挥着积极着作用，推动着世界积极的转动。故选A项。
【53题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段中句子“What
gets
lost
in
this?
Young
people's
sense
of
their
own
potential
for
heroic
qualities--their
own
power
to
make
a
positive
difference
in
the
world.”（在这里面迷失了什么?
年轻人对自己的英雄潜质的认识——他们自己对世界产生积极影响的能力。）可知，年轻人在自我能力上产生了迷失，他们对自己的力量没有信心。故选D项。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段中句子“How
do
we
help
young
people
believe
in
their
own
power?
The
best
way
is
simply
to
share
examples
,of
other
young
people
who
have
made
a
difference.”（我们如何帮助年轻人相信自己的力量？最好的方法就是分享其他年轻人做出改变的例子。）可知，作者提出自己的观点后，在接下来的两段中，列举Ryan和Barbara两位年轻人的事例来说明年轻人具有成为英雄的潜力。即，作者是用举例的方式来进一步阐述自己观点。故选C项。
【55题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段最后一句“...why
young
people's
belief
in
their
own
power
is
so
essential.”（......为什么年轻人相信自己的力量是如此重要。）和最后一段最后一句“These
are
but
a
few
examples
of
young
people
who
have
discovered
that
they
can
build
on
their
own
energy
to
do
something

“相信自己的力量”点题，段中例举了几个通过自己的力量做出改变的例子，结尾又以“自己的力量”与首段呼应，可知，整篇文章讲的是年轻人应该相信自己有能力做出改变。故选D项。

第Ⅱ卷
第三部分:写作
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My
name
is
Clara.
I
still,
remember
that
chilly-December
day,
sitting
in
science
class.
I’d
finished
a
worksheet
early
and
picked
up
a
TIME
for
Kids
magazine.
A
piece
of
news
caught
my
eye:
NASA
was
holding
an
essay
contest
to
name
its
Mars
rover(火星探测器).Before
I
even
knew
anything
else
about
it,
a
singe
word
flooded
my
11-year-old
mind,
Curiosity.
I
couldn't
wait
for
the
bell
to
ring
so
I
could
get
started
on
my
essay.
That
afternoon,
I
raced
home,
sat
down
at
the
computer,
and
typed
until
my
fingers
ached.
“Curiosity
is
an
everlasting
flame
that
burns
in
everyone
's
mind...”
Five
months
later,
my
mom
received
a
phone
call,
and
immediately,
a
wide
smile
spread
across
her
face.
On
August
5,2012,
at
10:31
p.m.,
the
rover
named
Curiosity
touched
down
safely
on
the
surface
of
Mars,
and
I
was
honored
to
have
a
front-row
seat
in
NASA.
Curiosity
is
such
an
important
part
of
who
I
am.
I
have
always
been
fascinated
by
the
stars,
the
planets,
the
sky
and
the
universe.
I
remember
as
a
little
girl.my
grandmother
and
I
would
sit
together
in
the
backyard
for
hours.
She'd
tell
me
stories
and
point
out
the
stars.
Grandma
lived
in
China,
thousands
of
miles
away
from
my
home
in
Kansas,
but
the
stars
kept
us
together
even
when
we
were
apart.
They
were
always
there,
yet
there
was
so
much
I
didn't
know
about
them.
That's
what
I
love
so
much
about
space.
People
often
ask
me
why
we
go
to
faraway
places
like
Mars.
My
answer
is
simple:
because
we're
curious.
We
human
beings
do
not
just
hole
up
in
one
place.
We
are
constantly
wondering
and
trying
to
find
out
what's
over
the
hill
and
beyond
the
horizon.

B
Papa,
as
a
son
of
a
dirt-poor
farmer,
left
school
early
and
went
to
work
in
a
factory,for
education
was
for
the
rich
then.So,
the
world
became
his
school.With
great
interest,
he
read
everything
he
could
lay
his
hands
on,
listened
to
the
town
elders
and
learned
about
the
world
beyond
his
tiny
hometown."There's
so
much
to
learn,"
he'd
say.“Though
we're
born
stupid,
only
the
stupid
remain
that
way.”He
was
determined
that
none
of
his
children
would
be
denied(拒绝)an
education.
Thus,
Papa
insisted
that
we
learn
at
least
one
new
thing
each
day.And
dinner
time
seemed
perfect
for
sharing
what
we
had
learned.We
would
talk
about
the
news
of
the
day;no
matter
how
insignificant,
it
was
never
taken
lightly.Papa
would
listen
carefully
and
was
ready
with
some
comment,always
to
the
point.
Then
came
the
moment-the
time
to
share
the
day's
new
learning.
Papa,
at
the
head
of
the
table,
would
push
back
his
chair
and
pour
a
glass
of
red
wine,ready
to
listen.
Felice,
“he'd
say,”tell
me
what
you
learned
today.“learned
that
the
population
of
Nepal
is...”
Silence.
Papa
was
thinking
about
what
was
said,
as
if
the
salvation(拯救)of
the
world
would
depend
upon
it.“The
population
of
Nepal.Hmm.Well...”he'd
say.“Get
the
map;
let's
see
where
Nepal
is.”
And
the
whole
family
went
on
a
search
for
Nepal.
This
same
experience
was
repeated
until
each
family
member
had
a
turn.Dinner
ended
only
after
we
had
a
clear
understanding
of
at
least
half
a
dozen
such
facts.
As
children
we
thought
very.little
about
these
educational
wonders.Our
family,however,was
growing
together,sharing
experiences
and
participating
in
one
another’s
education
And
by
looking
at
us,listening
to
us,
respecting
our
input,
affirming(肯定)our
value;
giving
us
a
sense
of
dignity,
Papa
-was
unquestionably
our
most
influential
teacher.
Later
during
my
training
as
a
future
teacher
studied
with
some
of
the
most
famous
educators.They
were
imparting(传授)what
Papa
had
known
all
along-the
value
of
continual
learning.His
technique
has
served
me
well
all
my
life.Not
a
single
day
has
been
wasted,
though
I
can
never
tell
when
knowing
the
population,of
Nepal
might
prove
useful.

clear:
women
have
more
friendships
than
men,
and
the
difference
in
the
content
and
the
quality
of
those
friendships
is
“marked
and
unmistakable.”
More
than
two-thirds
of
the
single
men
Rubin
interviewed
could
not
name
a
best
friend.
Those
who
could
were
likely
to
name
a
woman.
Yet
three-quarters
of
the
single
women
had
no
problem
naming
a
best
friend,
and
almost
always
it
was
a
woman.
More
married
men
than
women
named
their
wife/husband
as
a
best
friend,
most
trusted
person,
or
the
one
they
would
turn
to
in
time
of
emotional
distress(痛苦).“Most
women,”
says
Rubin,
“identified
at
least
one,
usually
more,
trusted
friends
to
whom
they
could
turn
in
a
troubled
moment,
and
they
spoke
openly
about
the
importance
of
these
relationships
in
their
lives.”
“In
general,”
writes
Rubin
in
her
new
book,
“women's
friendships
with
each
other
rest
on
shared
emotions
and
support,
but
men's
relationships
are
marked
by
shared
activities.
”“For
the
most
part”,
Rubin
says,
“interactions
between
men
are
emotionally
controlled-a
good
fit
with
the
social
requirements
of
“manly
behavior.”
“Even
when
a
man
is
said
to
be
a
best
friend,”
Rubin
writes,
“the
two
share
little
about
their
innermost
feelings.
While
a
woman's
closest
female
friend
might
be-the
first
to
tell
her
to
leave
a
failing
marriage,
it
wasn't
unusual
to
hear
a
man
say
he
didn't
know
his
friend's
marriage
was
in
serious
trouble
until
he
appeared
one
night
asking
if
he
could
sleep
on
the
sofa.”

If
I
could
give
today's
young
people
three
wishes,
they
would
be:
More
hugs.
More
time
outside
in
nature.
More
belief
in
their
own
power
to
change
the
world.
While
most
people
understand
the
importance
of
the
first
two
wishes,
the
third
one
leaves
some
folks
wondering
why
young
people's
belief
in
their
own
power
is
so
essential.
Let's
start
with
the
idea
that
all
of
us-especially
young
people-need
heroes.
We
need
them
to
be
our
guides
on
the
difficult
trail(足迹)we
call
life
and
to
show
us
just
how
far
we
can
go.
And
we
need
heroes
today
more
than
ever.
Our
modern
society
is
terribly
confused
about
the
difference
between
a
celebrity
and
a
hero.
And
the
difference:
is
vital.
A
celebrity
is
all
about
fame(名望)-temporary,
superficial
fame,
usually
for
qualities
that
are
easy
to
see:
a
pretty
face,
a
great
dance
move.
A
hero，by
contrast,
is
about
character-qualities
under
the
surface
that
aren't
visible
until
they
take
action.
Heroes
are
all
around
us.
They
truly
hold
our
world
together,
through
their
unselfish
devotion
to
helping
others,
teaching
children,
and
protecting
the
environment.
They
don't
want
fame,
or
glory;
they
just
want
to
help.
In
so
many
ways,
these
unsung
heroes
pilot
the
boat
in
which
all
of
us
sail.
Yet,
young
people
hear
a
lot
more
about
celebrities
than
about
heroes
in
the
media.
The
hidden
message
they
get
from
all
this
is
that
their
self-worth
comes
from
what
they
buy-which
shoes,
which
cell
phone--not
who
they
are
down
inside.
What
gets
lost
in
this?
Young
people's
sense
of
their
own
potential
for
heroic
qualities--their
own
power
to
make
a
positive
difference
in
the
world.
Truth
is,
there
is
a
potential
hero,
a
future
difference
maker,
in
every
young
person.
Each
of
them,
from
whatever
background,
is
a
positive
force
who
can
do
something.
All
it
takes
for
that
to
be
true
is
belief.
How
do
we
help
young
people
believe
in
their
own
power?
The
best
way
is
simply
to
share
examples,
of
other
young
people
who
have
made
a
difference.
Ryan,
age
11,
has
worked
tirelessly
to
raise
money
to
provide
clean
drinking
water
to
African
villages.
When
he
first
heard
about
the
plight(困苦)of
African
children
who
died
from
impure
water,
Ryan
was
only
six
years
old.
In
the
next
five
years,
he
raised
over
$500,000-enough
to
build
over
70
water
wells.
Barbara,
age
17,
grew
up
on
a
farm
in
Texas.
When
she
realized
that
local
farmers
were
pouring
their
used
motor
oil
into
rivers,
causing
pollution,
she
organized
the
creation
of
a
recycling
center
for
crude(未加提炼的)oil.
Her
project
has
grown
to
include
18
recycling
centers
in
Texas.
The
list
could
continue.These
are
but
a
few
examples
of
young
people
who
have
discovered
that
they
can
build
on
their
own
energy
to
do
something
great.

第三部分:写作
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My
name
is
Clara.
I
still,
remember
that
chilly-December
day,
sitting
in
science
class.
I’d
finished
a
worksheet
early
and
picked
up
a
TIME
for
Kids
magazine.
A
piece
of
news
caught
my
eye:
NASA
was
holding
an
essay
contest
to
name
its
Mars
rover(火星探测器).Before
I
even
knew
anything
else
about
it,
a
singe
word
flooded
my
11-year-old
mind,
Curiosity.
I
couldn't
wait
for
the
bell
to
ring
so
I
could
get
started
on
my
essay.
That
afternoon,
I
raced
home,
sat
down
at
the
computer,
and
typed
until
my
fingers
ached.
“Curiosity
is
an
everlasting
flame
that
burns
in
everyone
's
mind...”
Five
months
later,
my
mom
received
a
phone
call,
and
immediately,
a
wide
smile
spread
across
her
face.
On
August
5,2012,
at
10:31
p.m.,
the
rover
named
Curiosity
touched
down
safely
on
the
surface
of
Mars,
and
I
was
honored
to
have
a
front-row
seat
in
NASA.
Curiosity
is
such
an
important
part
of
who
I
am.
I
have
always
been
fascinated
by
the
stars,
the
planets,
the
sky
and
the
universe.
I
remember
as
a
little
girl.my
grandmother
and
I
would
sit
together
in
the
backyard
for
hours.
She'd
tell
me
stories
and
point
out
the
stars.
Grandma
lived
in
China,
thousands
of
miles
away
from
my
home
in
Kansas,
but
the
stars
kept
us
together
even
when
we
were
apart.
They
were
always
there,
yet
there
was
so
much
I
didn't
know
about
them.
That's
what
I
love
so
much
about
space.
People
often
ask
me
why
we
go
to
faraway
places
like
Mars.
My
answer
is
simple:
because
we're
curious.
We
human
beings
do
not
just
hole
up
in
one
place.
We
are
constantly
wondering
and
trying
to
find
out
what's
over
the
hill
and
beyond
the
horizon.
