Lockheed Martin, an American space system company(空间系统公司) in Maryland, has found a really cool way to inspire the young kids of today to the research fields in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM).

It may look like a common yellow bus, but all the magic happens once you get inside. "Mars Experience Bus" is part of Lockheed Martin's new "Generation Beyond" national education programme. It gives kids a chance to join in and study what goes on outside of our home planet. The bus offers a virtual reality(VR, 虚拟现实)experience making the teenagers feel like they are driving on Mars.

The VR experience was developed by using software(软件) created for today's best video games, so you can imagine the picture shown is top level. The kids do seem really excited to see the bus take a virtual trip on the red planet and search unknown places. It's certainly a great way of learning about the universe(宇宙) by virtual reality working on a common bus.

The Lockheed Martin's bus will start a tour in the United States to allow kids from different parts of the country to take a ride in it. The "Generation Beyond" project also includes an app on the phone for providing real-time information about weather reports for Mars, and there's also a free deep space class for middle school teachers and students.

①We spend most of our time with friends whom we like. Well, who would stay with a person one doesn't like? What kind of people are welcomed by others, then?

②There are people that naturally attract(吸引) you. By being with them just once, you start to like them. If you wonder why they attract people and want to be a person like them, you should learn how to develop the personalities that they have. 

③Firstly, everybody wants to be happy, and nobody wants to spend their time with a sad person. Well, you see, there is what you call mood linkage. If you are with a jolly person, you are more probably to be happy. When people choose to spend time with a person, they are more likely to choose those who are cheerful. So if you are a happy person, many people will want to spend their time with you. 

④Next, everybody needs someone to give encouragement to them, because sometimes in our lives we experience failure, sadness, problems and other bad things. So if you always choose to cheer others up with encouraging words or actions, they will be willing to spend time with you. 

⑤Lastly, you are not a friend if you don't lend a hand to your friends when they need help. You should always be helpful to them, no matter what it costs, because when you need help, they will be there for you too. 

⑥It feels good if people want to be your friends because of your character. So if you want to attract friends, I suggest you learn to develop these personalities. 

 阅读下列短文, 从每小题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

Here's a blog (博客) of Abd Allah with some replies (回复). 


Abd Allah

Hi. I am Abd Allah from Egypt. I sometimes eat bread with jam. But usually I eat fuul and bread for breakfast. Fuul is mashed beans (豆). It's great with olive oil and bread. I sometimes have an egg with it, too. 

I also want to ask you a question:  ? 


Pete

Posted at 9: 02 a.m. on 11th December 2023

My name's Pete. I am from the U. S. A. For breakfast, I usually have a bowl of cereal (麦片) with milk, but my favorite is cornflakes (玉米片). 

I don't have a very big breakfast because I eat lunch early at school. 


Huong

Posted at 11: 35 a.m. on 11th December 2023

Hi, everyone. I am Huong and I come from Vietnam. For breakfast, I usually have noodle soup. My grandma makes it every morning. Sometimes, I have Xois. These are balls of rice with beans. They are wrapped in coconut leaves (椰子叶) and are really yummy.

Hi. My name is Mariana and I am from Mexico. My favorite breakfast is huevos rancheros. These are eggs cooked with tomato and chili pepper sauce. Under the eggs is a com pancake. I always eat a big breakfast because we don't have lunch at school.
