From the first use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space stations， human beings have been putting great effort into space research． And so far， we have achieved many successes． But there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not stop trying to progress．
The international space station （ISS） is an important step we should take in space exploration． It is not only helpful but also essential． It provides a proper space environment for many experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time． It is also a base for the observations of the earth and the universe． It could also be an important base for later travel to the moon and Mars． In a word， if we want to explore space more， the first thing we should do is to set up a space station．
As the space station costs a lot of money， it is hard for one country alone to establish one． The USA seem to be the only country that has the ability to build a space station alone， and it has tried to do so， but not very successful． So it aggregated many other countries to work on it together． Though it is still extremely expensive， it is much cheaper than doing it alone． It is really a job that needs everyone's effort and will benefit everyone．
Led by the U．S． and Russia， the ISS is a joint project between six space agencies involving 16countries． Called the greatest achievement in human cooperation， the ISS has come to the end of a ten﹣year's hard work in construction． China has applied for participation in （taking part in） the project many times． Unfortunately all the applications were rejected， which drove China onto the path of independent development． As the Long March Ⅱ﹣F/T1 carrier rocket blasted off （leave the ground） and successfully carried the Tiangong﹣1into space on September 29， 2011， China takes a big step toward its Space Station Era．
Some West media suggested that the successful launch of Tiangong﹣1 would disturb the balance of global space power， raising concerns about "China threat"． China's space project is not designed for military purpose but for developing space technology to explore space resources and make use of them for mankind's well﹣being．

When I was young, my mother didn't have the money to send me to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with education.So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself.But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4：30 in the morning.
We need every one of you to develop your talents and your skills so that you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems. If you quit on school—you're not just quitting on yourself, but you're quitting on your country. No one's written your destiny(命运) for you, because you write your own destiny. You make your own future.That's why today I'm calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education and do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending some time reading a book.
But whatever you decide to do, I want you to commit to it.I want you to really work at it.I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star.No one's born being good at all things. You become good at things through hard work.You're not a good athlete the first time you play a new sport.You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song.You've got to practise.
