Will you remember to water the plants? If the plants are in space, will watering be difficult?NASA(美国宇航局)has plans to plant the first garden on the moon in 2051——and it might mean that we are closer to live in space.
The garden will have many vegetables such as carrots. People will keep the seeds in a special box, with a supply(供给装置)of air and water to get them started. Robert Bowman, a scientist working on the project, talked to a news reporter about the meaning of the garden.
The plants will feed astronauts and moon colonists(移民). We’re chosen many important plants because people are going to live there. As we all know, many years ago, the astronauts only walked on the moon, they stopped for a while and then came home. In the future, people will go to moon, go to Mars, go to other places in outer space and live there.
But, will the carrots still be delicious?

When you want to go shopping, decide how much money you can spend on new clothes.
Think about the kind of clothes you really need. Then look for those clothes you really need.

A sweater label may tell you to wash it in cold winter. The label on a coat may say ”dry clean only ”, for washing may ruin this coat. If you do as the directions(说明) on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best for a long time.
Many clothes today must be dry cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, check to see if they will need to be dry cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that can be washed.
