When you look up into the night sky, you can see the   moon. But do you know that you're only seeing one side of the moon? The other side, also known as the far side of the moon, has long been a secret to us. But now, we have a chance to see what's on the far side.

On January 3rd, China's Chang'e 4 probe (探测器) landed on the far side of the moon. It is the first probe in history to land there.

Chang'e 4 probe has already done a lot of things on the moon. One of its jobs is to grow plants. Chang'e 4 probe took six living things to the moon. Such as cotton, potatoes and fruit flies(果蝇). The cotton has already started growing. This is the first time humans have grown plants on the moon.                                                               

Chang'e 4 probe also took a lot of pictures of the moon's far side. With these pictures, scientists will learn more about the moon.

Time flies. My summer vacation ended in the blink of an eye, but one thing is still on my mind. From July 25 to 27. I worked as a volunteer at the Wolong China Giant Panda Garden in Sichuan. I experienced the life of being a panda keeper.

My work included cleaning the pandas' home, feeding the pandas and making food for them. The panda I took care of was named Jingke. When I went to feed him, he would stretch（伸出） one of his forefeet out and wait for his food. He would quickly grab the food as soon as I brought it to him. Can you guess what would happen next? Jingke would lie down and begin to eat. I could hear him crunching（嘎吱作响地咀嚼）on his food and see him twisting his body around like a dancer. It was really cute. This was one of the most interesting things I saw when I worked there.

When I fed Jingke, I touched his fur（毛）. Most people think that panda's fur would be soft. But actually, panda's fur is very hard. It felt like I was touching needles. I looked at his teeth, too—they were sharp and big. No wonder the panda keepers told us that pandas are not only cute, but also dangerous.

I am happy to be so close to the pandas. This experience lets me know that it is not easy to be a panda keeper.
