【推荐1】Our reporter asked people what they were doing on July 20th, 1969 when man first walked on the moon. Here is what they said:
Kate Jones, waitress. I remember that day very well. I was fifteen years old. It was a hot and humid day, and I was with my family in the mountains. We were having a picnic. We didn’t see the moon landing when it happened, but we were thinking about it. We saw it later on the TV news.
John Bates, postman. I was eighteen years old. It was a very exciting day. I was watching TV at home when the astronauts walked on the moon. One of the astronauts was Neil Armstrong. I remember he could jump really high because people aren’t so heavy on the moon. When he returned, he became a national hero in America, and famous all over the world.
Paul Robinson, doctor. I was twelve. I remember the day, but I don’t remember what I was doing. I remember I wanted to go to the moon, too. My dream was to become an astronaut and fly in a rocket. I wanted to see the earth from the moon. The astronauts on the moon said that the earth looked very beautiful from there.
Linda Brown, clerk. I was working that day. I was twenty then. I didn’t see the men land on the moon because I was busy. Of course I know about it. I read about it in the newspaper the next day. I thought it was amazing. Maybe one day people will travel to the moon for vacations！
Mark Green, teacher. I was only seven years old then. My parents talked about it, and I learned about it later in school, but I don’t remember the day. I was too young to remember. Maybe I was having fun in the playground with my friends when it happened.

【推荐2】The Silk Road was actually a network of trade routes (线路) between China and Europe. Traders carrying Chinese silk and other goods followed routes that crossed Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Far East. Many traders traveled on camels in groups called caravans. In a caravan, fifty or more camels might travel in a line.
Traveling the Silk Road could be unbearable. Warring soldiers, bandits (土匪), and terribly bad weather such as sandstorms troubled the caravans. Caravanserais eased the way for tired tradesmen. These were huge guest houses that welcomed traveling traders. Caravanserais are on the Silk Road from Turkey to China. At a caravanserai, traders were safe from harm. There, they could enjoy tasty meals, rest, and ready themselves to journey on.
A caravanserai was protected with high, strong walls. The one door was tall and wide enough for a loaded pack animal to enter. Along the inside of the walls were guest rooms for traders, their servants and their goods— Some guest houses provided stables (马厩) for animals. Others had open central courtyards where pack animals horses, camels, and elephants drank from stone water troughs.
Caravanserais were placed within a day’s journey of each other. This allowed traders (with their precious silk and other trade goods) to avoid spending nights under the Silk Road’s bad condition. In many places, there was usually a caravanserai every 20 to 25 miles (about 30 to 40 kilometers).
A caravanserai provided more than a sale place to rest. There, traders could exchange goods and pack animals, buy local products, and socialize with other trade travelers. Thus, the Caravanserais provided places for people of diverse cultures to share knowledge about arts, crafts, literature, science, and technologies. Over hundreds of years, trade along the Silk road allowed cultures, language and religions (宗教) to influence one another.
