—Yes. It is a small nation state of around 3 million people.
—She's ill today, so she looks weak.
Do you think of the future? Three friends and I make a poster (海报) to show our thoughts (想法) in a class meeting.
The main (主要的) 1 of the poster is black. We hope it can make people 2. We draw a green 3 at the bottom (底部) of the poster. We want to show that the Earth is so beautiful. If we don't protect (保护) 4 now, maybe we'll have to find another planet to live on in the future.
The future is not all about 5 things. We write the words "politics (政治)" and" technology (科技)" 6 the poster. During our speech (演讲), we say in the future all the countries will work together. And our technology will develop (发展) very fast and make the world better.
We also talk 7 a new planet to live on. We name it "hearth". It 8 the words "new" and "earth". We 9 think maybe in the future humans and aliens (外星人) will live together and even have babies. We name these babies" hulien" — "human" and "alien".
Do you like the future we think about? How will the future 10 in your eyes?

| I'm a Chinese boy. I love travelling a lot. And I've been to many great places. But I've never travelled into space. My dream is that I can fly to the Moon one day. I know Chinese people are working hard to get ready to fly there. So, I'm sure my dream will come true. |
| | I'm from New York. I think space is very interesting and amazing. People don't know much about it. I hope to visit the Mars (火星) if it is possible. But it's really hard to take a trip into space. So I'll exercise more to keep healthy and make more money for the trip. |
| | The Sun is always bright and beautiful. Can't we visit it? It's too far and hot. But I have the dream to fly there. Maybe we will invent a new spaceship and some new spacesuits so that we can visit the Sun. |
In the universe, as we all know, there is the Sun, the Moon, the Earth and a good many stars. Through our geography lessons, we know the Earth goes around the Sun, and the Moon goes around the Earth. We have day and night because the Earth keeps turning all the time. When our part of the Earth turns to the Sun, it is day. When our part of the Earth turns away from the Sun, it is night.
Just because the Moon is closer to the Earth than the Sun, it looks much bigger than the Sun. Big things will look smaller when they are further, and small things also look bigger when they are nearer.
The Sun is big enough to give out very strong light. The Moon can't give out any light at all, but it looks quite bright, too. Why? In fact, the light from the Moon comes from the Sun. The Moon looks much bigger and brighter than the stars. But actually the stars are much bigger and brighter than the Moon. They look smaller than the Moon also because they are farther away from the Earth.
There are many other planets in the universe. But of all the planets, only on the Earth there are living things and people can only live on the Earth, too. But at 9: 00 a. m. on October 15th, 2003, Chinese pilot Yang Liwei was sent up to space. He stayed there for over 21 hours. It was the first time for Chinese to get into space.
