The moon landing

    It's always been man's dream to fly like a bird in the sky. Back in 1865, a French writer once wrote about man's landing on the moon on a special airplane with three people inside, and the first person to touch the ground on the moon would be an American. That was considered(被认为) to be a crazy(疯狂的) idea at that time. Over one hundred years later, in July 1969, however, this impossible dream did come true.

    It was a big day in the history of the 20th century. On that day, a special airplane took three brave (勇敢的) men from Cape Kennedy at a very high speed. The trip to the moon took over 100 hours. In fact, it was the first time that man had ever “walked” in outer space. On the trip, two of the spacemen spent two hours on the moon walking like flying, and the other stayed in the spaceship. They studied the appearance of the moon. Four days later, the spaceship Apollo 11,returned to the earth and the astronauts were welcomed by people around the country. The man who took the first step, Neil Armstrong, said, "That's a small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” This has been said again and again in every language around the world since then.

    Once upon a time, there lived a generous and kind-hearted king. But, the people weren't happy with their king because he was too lazy and wouldn't do anything other than eating and sleeping. He spent days, weeks and months in his bed. The king became a couch potato and the people started to worry about him.

    One day, the king realized that he couldn't even move his body. He invited famous doctors from various parts of his country and offered them generous rewards to make him fit. Unfortunately, none could help the king gain his health or fitness.

    One morning, a man called Rishi visited the land of the king. He heard about the illness of the king and told one minister that he could easily cure the king. Hearing these promising words, the minister became very happy.

    Since he couldn't move his body, the fat king asked the minister to bring Rishi to the palace, but Rishi refused and ordered the king to come to meet him. After a lot of effort, the king met the man. Rishi encouraged him and said he was good and very soon the king would gain his health. He asked the king to come for treatment every day from the next day on. Also, Rishi told the king that he would treat him only if he came on foot to his place.

    The king was unable to walk even a few steps on the road, but accompanied by his followers, he reached Rishi's place. Unfortunately, Rishi wasn't available there and his friend said the king could come and meet him the next day for treatment. This was repeated for two weeks and the king never met Rishi and never had any treatment. Suddenly, the king realized that he was a lot lighter, lost a lot of weight and felt more active than before. He realized the reason why Rishi asked him to reach his place by walking.

    Very soon, the king regained his health, and the people were very happy in his kingdom. The king had a lot of wealth, but no amount of wealth could make him healthy.
