Wukong. Tiangong. Tianwen. Do you know where the names of Chinese space programs come from?

Wukong, the Dark Matter Particle Explorer satellite （暗物质粒子探测卫星）, is named after Chinese superhero Monkey King. According to Journey to the west, Monkey King has a pair of sharp eyes which can tell the difference between good and evil. The Wukong satellite is just as sharp-eyed as Monkey King to help scientists search for dark matter in space.

The name of the space station, Tiangong, means “Heavenly Palace”. In Chinese myths（神话）, this is the home of Tian Di. Now Tiangong Space Station is a home for Chinese astronauts in space. And China welcomes foreign astronauts to Tiangong in order that they can work together.

Tianwen, China’s Mars missions（任务）, gets its name from the poem Tianwen by Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan is a well-known poet from ancient China. In Tiamwen, he had the questions about the sky, stars, nature, myths and the real world, showing his hunger for truth. Perhaps the Tianwen missions will end up answering some of Qu Yuan’s questions.

If you look into more names of Chinese space programs, you will find that they all have beautiful meanings. We, the Chinese people, have a long-cherished （珍藏已久的） space dream. So it is serious to take the naming of Chinese space programs.

5 . I am sure you know the story of the turtle（乌龟） and the rabbit. It taught people many lessons. One of these lessons is that people who have all the advantages （the fast-jumping rabbit） can be beaten by those who have nothing but inner strength （内在的力量） （the slow turtle）.

_______, this is not true. In fact, the “turtles” —kids from poor families —have some of the most important things for success. They are determined（有决心的） and hard-working. They move forward slowly but with great inner strength.
