   Scientists are very interested in the universe,and they always want to know more about it. Years ago they knew many things about the moon. They knew how big it is and how far away it is away from the earth. But they wanted to know more about it. They thought the best way was to send men to the moon.

Rockets can fly out into space. Rockets with men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets without men in them have flown to another planet (行星) much farther away than the moon. One day,rockets may be able to go to any place in space.

    (1) For those of us who are studying at school,the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some people find exam times so bad that they become ill,because they are afraid of failing;they are afraid of letting their parents and teachers down. If exams are really making you ill or worried,don t hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it. Maybe you can speak to a friend,or someone in your fami- ly,or teachers at your place of study. If one person doesn 't help you,ask someone else.

   How to get through exams? Here are some advice：

    Ask a teacher or tutor about how to review your lessons,and exam skills —how to work when you are in an exam.

    Take short rests during your time of work. If your mind is tired,it will not remember well.

    Plan your work： study at times when you know you will work at your best.

    Get enough sleep,and eat healthy food.

   You need exercise to work well. Walk,run or play sport一whatever you enjoy.

   Stop thinking about the future and failing.

    If you feel ill,talk to someone about your worries. But don't be too relaxed! (2) Some stress over exams makes you work hard for them.

    If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it was finished,don't do it!In fact , don't even think about the exam after you have finished. What has done is done.   You cannot change what you have written!

   To this advice,we could add:

   If you are studying in the evening,don't go straight to bed. Your mind will still be “going round  and round”一thinking too much. Do something else,maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something that will relax you,and make you think of other things.
