   Strong earthquakes hit the east of Japan in the afternoon of March 11, causing several meter-high tsunami(海啸), which killed more than 10,000 people in areas along the coast. Several nuclear plants(核电站) at the coast were broken by the earthquake and tsunami. People living near the plants have been asked to move away. People living within 30 kilometers of the first plant are asked to stay indoors and close all windows.
   The breaking of the nuclear plants is causing electricity shortages(电力短缺) in Eastern Japan. As a result, electricity is cut off for 3-hour periods in the area of Tokyo and some other areas during daytime. In order to save electricity, some shops, restaurants and tourist places in the areas are closed for some time every day.  But all major airports and train lines are still open and operating.
   For the above reasons, tourists are advised not to visit the eastern areas in the near future. Visits to Western Japan are not affected by the event. People who plan to travel over the coming weeks and months are advised to pay attention to the situation for a few more days before making decisions.

On May 3, a Long March-5 rocket took off from Hainan. It was carrying the Chang'e-6 spacecraft (航天器). After about 37 minutes, the spacecraft separated from the rocket and began its 53-day journey. 

The Chang'e-6 spacecraft has a special job. It's going to collect rocks and soil from the far side of the moon and bring them back to Earth. "No other country has done this before," said Wu Weiren, chief designer of China's moon exploration program. The moon rotates (旋转) at the same speed as it moves around Earth. As a result, we always see the "near side" of the moon from Earth. "We still know very little about the moon's far side. If we make it, we'll give scientists new, first-hand information about the moon."

The Chang'e-6 spacecraft has a robotic arm. After it lands on the moon, the arm will start working. It will collect rocks and soil from the moon's surface (表面) and put them in a special box. The spacecraft will then bring them back to Earth. How much will Chang'e-6 be able to collect? Scientists don't know for sure. Their goal is about two kilograms.

The spacecraft will land in an impact crater (撞击坑) called the SPA Basin. It is 2,500 kilometers wide. That's about the distance between Beijing and Hainan. The SPA Basin has a history of over four billion years. It is the oldest and largest impact crater on the moon. Scientists believe that studying it may give us some of the earliest information about the moon.

The caique(地中海轻巧小舟) is an important part of Greek culture. For centuries, these traditional wooden boats have been used for fishing and for sending goods, animals and people. But the art of building caiques completely by hand is now in danger.

Caiques from the Greek island of Samos are famous for their quality. Years ago, many locals made a living building caiques. Now, only four boat builders remain. Giorgos Kiassos is one of them. "Sadly, I see the craft(工艺) slowly dying," he said while working on a boat. "Boats made from materials like plastic are cheaper and sell better." Besides, few young locals are interested in taking up the craft. While caique building is seen as an art, the work is tiring. It usually takes more than five years of hard training to learn how to build a caique independently.

The good news is that help is on the way. Kostas Damianidis, a researcher in the field of traditional Greek boat-building, is setting up a new craft museum on Samos. He also hopes to open a boat-building school within the museum.

To achieve his goals, Damianidis is turning to Kiassos for help. "It' s important to have someone with plenty of experience," he said. After more than 30 years in the business, Kiassos knows when to cut down a tree and where each piece should go on the boat. With one mistake, the boat could have problems. When you get it all right, it combines(结合) beauty and strength.

Kiassos is now finishing two caiques. "When a boat leaves, I'm sad," he said. "Yes, I'm happy when everything's okay. But it's like something is leaving, like a piece of me."

It was Tamika's turn to tell her class where she went this summer. She stood up proudly.

"This summer I went to a big market in Bradley," Tamika said. "I bought skates(溜冰鞋)."

"That's not a trip," Jeremy said loudly to Kevin. "My mom and I go to Bradley all the time. It's only a half-hour from here." Tamika felt embarrassed(尴尬的) and then hurried back to her desk. 

Tamika listened as Peter talked about his trip to Jamaica. She heard about Mary's trip across the Atlantics to Ireland… It seemed as if everyone but her had taken a big trip over the summer. Tamika didn't feel proud of her family's trip to Bradley any more. 

After school, things got worse. One of the wheels on Tamika's skates came loose(松动的). Now she couldn't even skate to the park!

Mrs. Henderson walked up, "You look unhappy, Tamika. Want to come inside to talk about it?" Tamika came in. And then, RAP- RAP! Someone knocked at the door. "Oh, I forgot Jeremy," said Mrs. Henderson. "He's here to fix(修理) my doors." Tamika thought about school that day. She was about to jump behind the sofa so that Jeremy wouldn't see her, but it was too late.

"Hi, Tamika," said Jeremy. But Tamika said nothing. "I'm sorry about class today. I didn't go anywhere either this summer. My dad opened his own car shop, and I stayed here to help him." 

Then he noticed the new skates and there was something wrong with one of the wheels. So he picked a tool(工具) to fix the skate. Soon, he showed it to Tamika. "You fixed it!" Tamika said happily.

"I help my dad fix things." Jeremy said proudly.

"     ▲     ." Tamika said.

"What happened in class?" asked Mrs. Henderson. Jeremy said that Tamika and he were the only ones who didn't go anywhere far away. 

"I've traveled a lot in my free time," Mrs. Henderson said. "It's exciting to see the new places, but you don't have to travel far to have the excitement of doing something new." 

"Yeah," said Jeremy. "It was also fun learning how to fix things with my dad." 

"I wish I could fix things," said Tamika. 

"I could teach you." said Jeremy. 

"That's great!" said Tamika.
