24、Online classes in space got lots of attention among Chinese students. The “classroom” in space station is about 400 kilometers away from the earth. As a special “teacher”, Wang Yaping is regarded as “the most beautiful astronaut”.

Wang Yaping was born in a small village in Shandong in 1980. She was good at all subjects, especially sports. Luckily, in 1997, she was enrolled by the Air Force, Changchun Flight Academy. Wang’s space dream started in 2003, when China sent its first astronaut Yang Liwei into space. She told herself, “China now has a male astronaut.

She joined the team of Shenzhou-13 in 2021 and flew into the space for the second time.

However, it is difficult to be an astronaut. She has to experience a lot of pain that most people can’t stand and keep training all the time. Wang Yaping told Xinhua, “The space environment won’t change because you are a woman.” She pushed herself hard, getting the same training as men, including the pull-ups and barbells (杠铃). That finally made her dream come true.

“You are on the way to success as long as you stick to your dreams.” Wang Yaping said. Millions of students are encouraged and inspired by the most beautiful astronaut.

26、   We all want to live in good neighborhoods, but not everyone lives in a good neighborhood. How can you build a better community for yourself and your family? There are many things you can do.

Paint your intersection (十字路口). A street intersection is not something you think of as interesting. However, In Portland, people in some neighborhoods have made them really worth stopping for. Some paint, creative people and a bright design are all it takes to bring neighbors together and produce something the whole community can be proud of.

Make a poetry box. The idea is simple, really-create a box with a glass or clear plastic front. Put this box on a post. Write your own poem or print out your favorite classic and display it in the box for all your neighbors to see. You can also set up a drop box and encourage neighbors to write their own poems and drop them in the box. Display the poems from your neighbors as the poems come in.

Set up a tool library. How often do you need a leaf blower? Or a chain saw? And how often do you use that electric cake mixer? Too libraries have space where neighbors can drop their hardly used tools to share. Check with a local business, community center or church group about space that can house a tool library.

Turn your front yard into your backyard. How often do you meet your neighbors in your backyard? Probably never. Moving your typical (典型的) backyard activities to the front immediately makes you more visible (可见的). You can create front-yard gardens, build community benches and even just barbecue in your front yard. They are all great ways to connect with your community.

With effort, you’ll make your neighborhood a much better place.

【1】Which of the following is NOT true?

A．Writing poems is a good way to connect with your neighbours.

B．Each family may have hardly used tools for others to share.

C．In Portland, the intersections in some neighborhoods are very attractive.

B．

C．
