6 . First Man is a picture book. It tells the story of Yang Liwei and his trip to space.

As we all know, Yang Liwei is China’s first astronaut to fly into space. Yang was born on June 21st, 1965 in the city of Huludao, Liaoning Province. When he was 38 years old, he took Shenzhou-5 spaceship to space.

To help people get to know the Chinese space hero (英雄) better and learn about his trip to space, the picture book was born. It is based on Yang’s autobiography (自传) Long March to Space. In 2021, One Day in Space, a passage from Yang’s book, was included in the seventh-grade textbook in Chinese middle schools.

Yang Liwei left for space at nine on the morning of October 15th, 2003 and came back to the earth at 6:23 on the afternoon of October 16th. During the 21-hour stay in space, he flew around the earth 14 times. With great pictures and simple words, the book tells an exciting story as well as space science in an interesting way. Yang’s story shows that nothing is impossible if you put your heart into it.

The writer of the book, Wu Xiaoxi, said, “There is a surprise in the book for readers. China plans to send people to the moon by 2030. We hope to write nice picture books at that time.”

7 . Do you like climbing? Do you know how fast someone can climb 15 meters (米)? The answer is: less than 5 seconds (秒)

On May 30, Chinese speed climber (速度攀岩者) Cao Long made history. In Zhejiang, he finished his climbing at 4.98 seconds and people call him “Chinese Spider-Man.”

“The race finishes in seconds. So a climber should be careful and keep calm. Or he will make mistakes (犯错) and lose the race,” Cao said.

In fact, that pressure is part of the reason why Cao loves the sport. “It is really exciting for me to compete side by side with another climber,” he said.

Cao took up climbing at the age of 8 and he won the national climbing competition two years later. When he was 14, a terrible accident happened to him. He fell from a 13-meter wall, breaking his lower back. Though it was hard, Cao’s love for the sport made him go back to climbing.
