Lei Feng Spirit Carrying on

    "It is not hard to do one good deed, but it is hard to do good deeds all your life." Chairman Mao o said. And he called on people to learn from him. Do you know who the man is? He is Lei Feng.

    Lei Feng was born in a poor family in a little mountain village of Hunan Province, on December 18th, 1940. He didn't go to school u he was 10 years old. At the age of 18, he became a steel(钢铁) w. He was often praised for his good job. On January 8th, 1960, he joined the army and several months later, he joined the Communist Party. He loved the Party and the people, and kept doing something good for others. When he got t, he always said, "It's my duty and it's just that some people need some help, there should be someone standing out to g them a hand." He became a model soldier one year later. To our sadness, Lei Feng died in an accident in 1962.  

    March 5th has been a "Learn from Lei Feng Day" s 1963. When Lei Feng's Diary came out, people began to know more about him than before. Now the term "Living Lei Feng" has become a name for anyone who is brave, anyone who has deep l for his country, anyone who works hard, o anyone who is always ready to help others.

    Lei Feng's spirit will live in o hearts. Lei Feng's spirit will be remembered by the whole nation f. And we will surely practice his spirit in life as he did.  

The first astronauts

    Since the earliest times, people have looked up at the stars, the moon and the planets. Today people use modern machines   1  at the sky. This is very different from the situation    2 years ago when people could only use their eyes. Perhaps they dreamed of   3  the universe.  

    When did humans first go into space? The story began not so very long ago, 4 the first astronauts were not people—they were animals.  

    Scientists wanted to make travelling to space as 5 as possible for humans. So they decided to experiment with animals and test    6  in spaceflights. Insects, mice, frogs, dogs and monkeys were some of the animals  7   first went into space. Many of them   8  , but they helped to make space travel safer for humans. For their great service, we    9   forget these animals.  

    Albert Ⅱ was the first monkey to go into space in 1949. Sadly he died 10 his spaceship landed back on Earth.  

       11   , the result was different for Ham the Monkey. His story ended happily when he returned to earth   12  very good health.  

    Scientists wanted to know the answer to the important question: could 13 animal like Ham do the same things in space as he could do on Earth? The answer came when Ham    14  into space in 1961. Yes, he did everything well and lived for    15  16 years.
