　　The journey to the moon has been the first step towards exploration(探险)in space．The distance between the Moon and Earth is very short indeed when compared with the distances between Earth and the other planes．Mars, the nearest planet to Earth is millions of miles away!Travelling to the planets will be man’s next aim．Such travels will be more challengingthan the trip to the moon and certainly more adventurous．

　　Recently, two American spaceships, Vikings 1 and 2, landed on Mars trying to discover whether that planet has any life on it．So far the signs of life on Mars has neither confirmed nor ruled out．Russians have discovered that the surface of Venus(金星)is so hot that it is almost certain that there is no life there．Also the atmosphere of Venus is extremely dense(稠)and the pressure is nearly a hundred times greater than that of the Earth’s atmosphere．

　　Scientists believe man may find planets which have the same conditions as those we have on Earth, but man should realize Earth will be his only home for a long time and begin to love and care for it．

Friends play an important part in our lives，and although we may take the fact of friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, ．

Moreover, a great many relationships come under the general term “friendship”．In all cases，two people like one another and enjoy being together，but beyond that，the degree of closeness between them and the reasons for their interest in each other change greatly．

At the beginning, much depends on how people meet，and on good first impressions. As we

get to know people, . Although these factors are not of the greatest importance，it is more

difficult to have a good relationship with people when there is a big difference in age and background．

Then, ．Friends will stand closer together and will spend more time looking at each other than ordinary friends．Smiles and soft voices also express friendliness，and it is because they may give the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty making friends. A friendly look with a wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare，and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness．

Some relationships are a result of argument and discussion，but it is usual for close friends to have the same ideas and beliefs，the same opinion and interests. The more closely involved people become．the more they depend on each other. And . Equally, friends have to learn to make allowances for each other, to put up with annoying habits，and to accept differences in opinion.

In contrast with marriage, . But the support and understanding that results from shared experiences and affections does seem to create a close and lasting relationship

A．we are usually friends with only a few

E．we consider things like age，race，looks，economic and social status，etc

G．there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the relationship between two people

Have you got a Facebook account? Are you thinking of getting one? Jamie Simmonds has just signed up. Let's see how she's getting along.

My Diary

MONDAY: I'm officially a Facebooker. I find a few people I used to know and I've soon got seven friends. I've never felt so popular! I wonder if my old university flatmate Steve is on here…What do you know! He is! Maybe Facebook has its uses.

TUESDAY: I've received lots of nice welcoming messages on my wall. Later, I meet up with Steve for a drink after not seeing him for five years. We get on really well! Then, he uses his Facebook app for iPhone to suggest me as a friend to some other former classmates. Some of them even come to the pub and it's just like old times – possibly a bit too much like old times. During the night, photos are uploaded to Facebook.

WEDNESDAY: Disaster! My mum's on Facebook! Has she seen the photos of me dancing on the table last night? Has she shown them to dad? Oh. And I have a friend request – mum again!

THURSDAY: There's a message from my boyfriend, “so, it's over then, is it?” Obviously I haven't changed my settings to show I'm “in a relationship”, and I haven't even added him as a friend. Ah, well, I wonder what my ex-boyfriend is doing… Whoops! I accidentally type his name into my status box instead of the search and now every one can see it on their news feed.

FRIDAY: Time to update my status: “Work is boring. Can't wait for the weekend!” Oh, look, I've received a comment! Someone must feel the same way. Lots of my friends now “like” this status.

SATURDAY: Good news! I've got 100 friends. But wait! Someone has “un-friended” me! I look through my “friend list” to try to work out who it was. Why did they do that? Am I really such a terrible person? I never knew Facebook could be this cruel.

SUNDAY: Wake up. Check my Facebook page. Make coffee. Check my Facebook page again. Get ready to leave. Change my mind and check my Facebook page … again. I am becoming addicted to it! I think it's time to end it all before it takes over my life. I delete my account. Back to good, old, simple e-mails. Oh, look, I've got a message: A friend invited you to join Twitter. . .
