Do you have the qualifications (資格) and experience to become an astronaut? Shuffle captains (機長) must already have 1,000 hours' experience of flying planes. If you are not a pilot,but want to be part of the team,you must already be a specialist (專家) .You must be a Doctor (博士) of Science or Maths. You have probably already done research. You work well in a team.
The 2-year training program is hard. You must be 1. 6-1. 9 metres tall. First you must be fit. You must be able to work for long hours without sleep. You should have good concentration (專心) .Do you have the right character (個性) ？
Do you get angry when your bicycle has a flat tire (走了氣的輪胎) ？
That would not help the team!Astronauts must work calmly and must be ready to do any job in space.
If you are clever,qualified (有資格的) and experienced,you can always try. You will be away from home for two years. Flights into space are dangerous. You will not make much money. On the other hand,you will have an exciting trip into space and wonderful views. You will always be famous. You'll always be one of the world's very few astronauts.

A map is a picture of a place. There can be many different maps of the same place. A map cannot show everything about a place. For a clear map,it must show a number of things. Here,you will get to make a map which shows the things that make your community (社區(qū)) a special place to live in.
Before you start drawing,make a list of the places and things in your community that you want to include on your map. Think about places you often have to go to,places where your relatives and friends live and which are your favorite. How do you get there? What roads or paths do you take? What kind of things do you see along the way? As you know,some maps are made to show locations and other maps show us how to get there. They can also show the distances.
Now,let's create a map of your community. On a large piece of paper,draw pictures of the places or the things you decide to include on your map. Next,fill in the shapes of the places and roads in light colors. Using darker colors,fill in the areas between the features and roads on your map to make it more interesting to look at. Every area of your map should be filled in with colors. When your map is finished,show it to your friends or family members to see what they think of it.

You can see kangaroos everywhere in Australia. They appear on TV,in books and in the shops. The government even plans to put them on passports (護照) .Although it's the best loved animal in Australia,millions of kangaroos are killed every year. Why,people ask,do the Australians kill them? Quite simply,there are too many of them.
The number of kangaroos in Australia is believed to be 20〜25 million. It is as much as 7 million more than the number of people living in the country.
There are several reasons for the growth in the kangaroo numbers. There is plenty of water in the places where kangaroos live and many of the dingoes―dogs that like to kill and eat kangaroos,are not there any more.
Kangaroos also produce (繁殖) the young all the year round. When a female kangaroo gives birth (生育) ，she gets pregnant again immediately (馬上) .
The large number of kangaroos means some kangaroos don't get food to eat. They are so hungry that they break into farms and fight against other animals for food.
To solve the problem,the Australian government allows a certain number of kangaroos to be killed each year.
Many people don't think that it's right to kill kangaroos,but the government thinks that it is only helping the farmers.
Australia sells 5 million kilos of kangaroo meat every year―it is used to make hamburgers and meat for dogs.
