As an only child who lost her mother at a young age, Ya-Ching was raised by her father and grandmother. 2.在她父亲的帮助下, 她学会了许多技能。Ya-Ching went to English schools in Hong Kong and Shanghai and at the age of 16 she was sent to London to study. 3. Then she went to Switzerland and she decided to learn to fly there. She got her pilot’s license at the age of 21.
Seeing a need to train new pilots, Ya-Ching and some other pilots opened a flying school in Shanghai in 1936. 4. When the war between China and Japan started in 1937, she volunteered to be a pilot in the army. But she was refused. So she helped her country by setting up hospitals. Then she bought a plane and flew all over the United States, Canada and South America. She raised money to help Chinese people by flying.
Not much is known of Ya-Ching’s life after the war. 5. 她回到香港并在那里待了很长一段时间。In the 1960s, she returned to California, where she died at the age of 86.

24、 What is the image of a typical female scientist? Perhaps you imagine a pair of thick glasses, messy hair and a few wrinkles on the forehead? With her high-heeled shoes and graceful posture, Ning Yan (or Nieng Yan), may break that stereotype (刻板印象).
Described as “the goddess scientist”, Yan, born in November 1977, is a leading biology researcher at Princeton University in the US. About a year ago, she was included among 100 new members and 25 foreign associates (院士) into The National Academy of Sciences, a famous scientific institution that aims to recognize outstanding research in the US.
You may not know Yan’s contribution to biology, but she is a rising star in the science world and her resume (简历) is impressive. She studied at Tsinghua University from 1996 to 2000. After graduating from Princeton in the US, she was invited to set up her own laboratory at Tsinghua in 2007. At age 30, she became one of China’s youngest-ever female professors.
It was a long road to get where she is now. She told People magazine that she always believes that scientists need to have a pure mind and strong willpower.
Yan likes to work at night. She says it’s because she can focus when the outside is quiet. She also works at least 14 hours a day, but she’s energetic, because research is the most “comfortable” job for her, according to an interview with People magazine.
This devotion to her work probably helped Yan in her research to identify the structures of proteins in cells’ plasma membranes (细胞质膜), which puzzled scientists for half a century. Her achievements got her listed among the journal Nature’s Science Stars of China in 2016.
Apart from scientific research, Yan enjoys TV dramas and classic novels. Surprisingly, the novel Journey to the West inspired her to become a structural biologist. In the book, the Monkey King changes into other animals. She wondered what it would be like to change herself. Luckily, Yan now lives in that world every day, exploring how proteins work at the level of atoms. “It was almost destined (注定的) that I would become a structural biologist,” she said in an interview with Nature.
As she realizes her own dreams, Yan tries to encourage more women to pursue careers in science. In her eyes, there is no difference between men and women in the scientific fields.
“Women can work as excellently as men and live the way they choose to,” she said in a public interview.

C.Ning Yan, a typical female scientist.
D.Ning Yan's dream.
25、Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. It is141 million miles away from the sun. A year on Mars is 687 earth-day long. One day is about the same as on the earth: 24 hours long.
Mars is about half the size of the earth. Because Mars is smaller than the earth, and its gravity is also less. If you weigh 100 pounds on the earth, you’d weigh about 38 pounds on Mars.
Mars’ surface looks like a red desert. There are mountains, canyons (峡谷), volcanoes (火山) and so on. It is a dry planet without any liquid water (液态水). It does have ice caps at its north and south. Some of this ice is frozen (冻结的) carbon dioxide.
Evidence shows that Mars once had rivers, streams, lakes, and maybe even an ocean. Scientists guess that there once was water on the surface of Mars that created these.Today the only water on Mars is either frozen in the ice caps or underground.
Mars has mountains that are much higher than the mountains on the earth. OlympusMons, the biggest volcano in the whole solar system, stands 17 miles tall! Mars also has bigger and deeper canyons than the earth’s. Some of these are sixty miles long and five or six miles deep. How amazing!
