NASA hasn’t landed astronauts on the moon since the 1972 Apollo 17 mission. Last year, NASA said it would have a new moon landing program called Artemis. With the Artemis program, NASA will send the first woman and the next man to the moon in 2024. Not long ago, news about NASA’s Artemis program showed that the astronauts are going for a pretty long moon walk. After they reach the moon, they are going to walk 10 miles. This is over 16 times further than how far the first men to land on the moon walked. The astronauts are going to land on the South Pole (南极) of the moon. They will be looking for ice and water there. Such a long walk will come with lots of difficulties. It takes longer to walk a mile on the moon than on the earth because there is lower gravity (重力) on the moon. According to Apollo astronauts’ walking speed of around l.4 miles an hour, it will take over seven hours to walk 10 miles. However, NASA is said to be using a kind of new space suits (航天服). They will be lighter and more comfortable. They will help astronauts walk freely and keep them warm on the moon. “This is where we’re going to test out technologies. We are working hard for further lunar exploration,” said NASA engineer Natalie Mary. |

Lots of people start each year with New Year’s resolutions. A resolution is a promise to help you live a better life. You plan to do something good or to stop doing something bad in the coming year. Here are some children’s New Year’s resolutions.
My name is Tony. I’m going to improve my Chinese and get better grades. How am I going to do that? I promise to work harder than before.
I’m Jenny. I have many different kinds of hobbies, like singing, dancing and swimming. This year, I’m going to take up a new hobby—taking photos. I will learn it from my uncle. He takes photos for some magazines and he is very good at it.
I’m Rose. I hope to be healthier. I usually watch TV a lot at night and only sleep seven hours a day. I will listen to my body and sleep more. Also, I decide to run for half an hour every morning. I know the saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”. It seems to make sense (有道理), so I’m going to eat some fresh fruit too every day.
It’s OK for you to have a big or small resolution. What’s important is that you should take it seriously and try to keep it. Don’t let it work only for a few weeks or months.

How is it going? I had a wonderful vacation this summer. I went to Taiwan with my parents.
Taiwan is really beautiful. The weather is always warm and wet because the sea is around Taiwan. In the north, it’s cold in winter, but in the south, it’s still warm in winter and you can enjoy sunshine every day.
There are many mountains in Taiwan. Ali Mountain is one of the biggest mountains there. We went to climb Ali Mountain on a sunny afternoon. There are many trees in the forest (森林) there. They are very tall and many of them are really old.
We enjoyed the sunshine and ate a lot of delicious food in a small town near the sea. Dumplings with shrimp (虾仁) in them are my favorite.
Taiwan, a beautiful island, I love it. I also took many beautiful photos there. Would you like to see them?

For eight days in May, Minnal hiked nearly 100 kilometers to reach the 5364-metre-high Everest base camp (珠峰登山大本营) in Nepal. Minnal has to wait for seven years to climb the Everest, because climbers have to be at least sixteen years to climb the peak.
