JIUQUAN SATELLITE LAUNCH CENTER, China sends off its youngest-ever team for its space station on Thursday. It is part of the country's plan to put astronauts on the moon before 2030.
The China Manned Space Agency said the average (平均的) age of the three-member team is the youngest since the launch of the space station. Their average age is 38, state media China Daily said. The three astronaut s are Tang Hongbo, Tang Shengjie and Jiang Xinlin. They will replace a team that has been on the station for six months. The new team will perform experiments in space medicine, space technology and other areas during their stay. And they will help to place and do possible repairs to equipment(设备) inside and outside the station.
In 2022, the Chinese government built its own space station after it was not permitted to join the US led International Space Station. The Americans worried that the Chinese space program was under the control of the People's Liberation Army.
China's first manned space mission(任务) in 2003 made it the third country after the former Soviet Union and the US to put a person into space using its own resources. This is an important step in exploring space, which makes all Chinese people proud.
Although the American space program is believed to be far ahead of China at this time, China has made some important steps. They include bringing back samples (样本) from the moon's surface for the first time and landing a vehicle(运载工具) on the less explored far side of the moon. The US, meanwhile, aims to put astronauts back on the moon's surface by the end of2025.
Beyond their moon exploration programs, the two countries have achieved significant milestones in space exploration by independently (独立地) landing vehicles on the surface of Mars. China now plans to follow the US in landing a spacecraft on an asteroid(小行星). It shows China's determination to become a leader in this competitive field. All Chinese people are full of expectations for the future development of exploring the universe.

About four years ago, I was on holiday and one day, one of my friends said, ' There's a bungee jumping place near here! Let's go!'I'd never done anything like that before, but I went anyway. I wish I hadn't gone! I was scared. I stood there with the rope round my ankle and I was really sweating. In the end, I just panicked and said, "I can't do this', so they took the rope off. My friend laughed and said, ' If only I'd taken a photo! That was so funny!'I felt really stupid. Paul, USA |
Last year, I went to a beach park. There was a waterslide which was 41 meters high. It might sound like fun, but it was one of the most scary moments of my life. When I started to fall, I thought, "▲" I was shaking the whole time. I still don't know how I did it, and I was crying for about fifteen minutes afterwards and I will never do that again, believe me.

When my older brother got married, he asked me if I'd make a speech at the wedding. I'd never done that before, but I said,' Sure, OK." Before the wedding, I thought of a few nice things to say and a couple of jokes. Easy! But on the day, just before I had to speak, I started to get nervous. I was biting my nails and everything. When I stood up, my mouth went dry and I even started to tremble(颤抖)! I stumbled through about two minutes of something and sat down again. Two years later, I did a course on public speaking. If only I'd thought of doing that before the wedding! Hanif, UK |
One year ago, we all went to a Mexican restaurant. It was my first time, so I didn't know anything about Mexican food. My friends told me about jalapeño peppers, and he persuaded me to try one. To be fair, he told me they were really powerful, and I was a bit anxious when I bit it. At first, it seemed OK, but then it exploded in my mouth! I started to breathe hard and I had to drink about a hundred glasses of water! That's something I won't do again. Ingrid, Sweden |
