Do you want to see Chang’e if you have a chance? S: Yes, very much.. T: Actually, there has been someone to the moon. Do you know who he is? [picture of Armstrong] S: Armstrong, an American. He’s the first human being that set foot on the moon. He also said something very famous, that is, ‘It’s one small step for man; one giant leap for the mankind.’ T: Wonderful! What do we call this kind of activities in space? S: Space exploration. T: Good. Today, we are going to learn some words and get to know something of space and space exploration.

S: I try! 10 means Challenger was launched into space 10 times, and 7 means 7 spacemen travelled by Challenge. T: Do you know what happened to the two shuttles? S: I know, they exploded when they were on their way back to the earth, and all the astronauts in the shuttles lost their lives. T: Good.
