A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a boy was walking around the shinning car. “Is this your car ,Paul ?” he asked. Paul answered ,“Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised . “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you anything? Well , I wish…” He hesitated.
Of course, Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that . But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish,” the boy went on ,“that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again,“ Would you like to take a ride in my car ?”
“Oh yes, I’d love that.”
After a short ride, the boy with his eyes shining, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbours* that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are ?” the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled* brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There it is , Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”

How much do you know about the universe? In the huge universe, there is the Galaxy and many other galaxies. In the Galaxy, there is the Solar System and lots of other stars. In the Solar System, there is the sun, the earth and seven other planets. As we know, the eight planets go around their star -----the sun. In our Earth-moon System, the moon goes around the earth. And because our earth keeps turning around the sun all the time, we have day and night. 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. The sun is big enough to give out very strong light. The moon itself can’t give any light at all, but it looks quite bright, too. In fact, the light from the moon comes from the sun. Although , the moon looks much bigger and brighter than the sun and other stars, in fact, all the stars are much bigger and brighter than the moon. They look smaller than the moon also because they are farther away from us. It’s clear that big things will look smaller when they are farther , and small things look bigger when they are nearer.
So far, we have traveled to many other planets in the universe. But scientists haven’t discovered any living things on any other planets. Scientists haven’t discovered any other planets with a good environment. They aren’t sure if there is any water and air for living things to live on other planets. People always ask the question: Is there anyone out space? Our scientists haven’t got a clear answer either. Some people think it will be a secret for a long time. But we believe we can solve* the problem some day.
Exploring our Solar System and the universe is a great national project to some countries. Our Chinese scientists are also trying to send spaceships with astronauts to those planets and even the universe. At 9:00 a.m. on October 15th, 2003, a Chinese astronaut called Yang Liwei was sent up to space. He stayed there for hours and got back to the earth at 6:00 a.m. the next day. It was the first time for Chinese to have a space travel.
