In ancient Chinese stories, the moon is home to Chang'e and her pet rabbit Yutu. Now, Chang'e and Yutu are really there!
On Dec. 2, 2013, the Chang'e-3 lunar probe(月球探测器)took off from Sichuan, China. On Dec. 14, 2013, it landed successfully on the moon. Several hours later, Yutu, China's first moon rover(月球车), "walked" out of the probe and onto the moon.
Yutu is a big robot that weighs 140 kg. It is about 1.5 meters long and 1.1 meters tall. It has six wheels and travels at 200 meters per hour.
There are cameras on both Yutu and Chang'e-3. They can take pictures of each other. That's how Yutu got is first picture on the moon.
Yutu and Chang'e-3 will explore(探索)the moon.
Yutu can walk around and work for three months. It can look for natural resources(资源)on the moon. Chang'e-3 can work at the landing site for one year and it can watch the space from the moon.
They both get energy from the sun. So they "get up" to work when the sun rises, and "go to sleep" at night.
China is now the third country in the world to soft-land on the moon after the US and the former Soviet Union.
Also, China is planning to send its Chang'e-5 lunar probe around 2017. The probe will fly back to the Earth and bring natural resources from the moon.
When will China fly a human to the moon? There's no plan yet. But the door is now open.
The Hunger Games is a book by an American author Suzanne Collins. It came out in 2008 and has sold millions of copies. You can buy it in 26 different languages.
The story happens in the future, after the destruction(毁灭)of North America. There are twelve poor districts governed(统治)by the rich Capitol.
The Capitol organizes the Hunger Games every year. One boy and one girl aged 12 to 18 in each of the twelve districts are chosen to fight. Only one person will live. The whole country must watch the games on television.
The story is about Katniss Everdeen, a sixteen-year-old girl. Her younger sister, Prim, is chosen, but Katniss volunteers to go instead. She has to fight with a boy named Peeta.
Where did the idea for The Hunger Games come from? One night in 2003, Suzanne Collins was watching TV. At that time, there was a war between the US and lraq. The only programs she could find on TV were "reality" programs and news about the war. Suzanne says that the two things started to mix together in her head and she had the idea for The Hunger Games.
Some parents in the US have complained about the violence(暴力)in the book. But Suzanne says she is very worried about how much violence we see on TV nowadays. Suzanne is also worried about the amount of reality TV we watch." We put too much of our lives on TV, "she says." And we care less for people because of this." She says that writing about death and violence in the story was the hardest thing for her to do and she hopes it will make people think about what they watch in the future.
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to be blamed(责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.
