Astronauts: the brave explorers (探索者) of space
In recent years, Chinese astronauts have made great achievements in space exploration.
For example, on 25 April 2024, the *Shenzhou-18* spacecraft $^{(1)}$ w
three astronauts
was successfully launched (发射) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre. The astronauts are
Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu. It is Ye's second time to go to space, while it is the
$^{(2)}$ f
space flight for Li Cong and Li Guangsu.
Astronauts are some of the bravest people in the world. They $^{(3)}$ l
the Earth to
explore the unknown depths of space. What they do is not only amazing but also important for
all of us. To become an astronaut, one needs to have a strong body and a sharp mind. Astronauts
train hard for $^{(4)}$ y
. On the one hand, they have to study a lot, $^{(5)}$ i
maths,
science and technology. On the other hand, they have to learn many $^{(6)}$ s
, like how
to operate complex machines and how to stay calm in difficult situations. And they will also do
spacewalks and keep the safety of the space station.
In space, astronauts face many challenges. The lack of gravity (重力) makes $^{(7)}$ e
simple tasks like eating and sleeping difficult. They have to wear special spacesuits to protect
$^{(8)}$ t
from the cold and dangerous radiation. And they need to work together as a team
to complete their tasks. During their tasks, astronauts do many important things. They conduct
scientific experiments to learn more about space, which helps us $^{(9)}$ b
understand the
universe. They also repair satellites and space stations to keep them working well.
Astronauts are true heroes. They inspire us to reach for the stars and $^{(10)}$ n
to
stop exploring. They are the pride of our nation and their courage and hard work make them
role models for everyone.
