12、in his mother and his new stepfather(继父), whom he had not met before. He speaks Urdu and Punjabi, but not a word of English. Imran soon gets into trouble at school because he is at a disadvantage among his confident English-born classmates. The other children mock(嘲笑) him because they think he is no

15、language barrier at her village school. But that was a few months ago. Kanykei confirms that Altynay is happier now because she has learned more English. Compared with the two, Marshal has a huge advantage, having been educated at English-language schools in Zimbabwe. He is also outgoing. When asked

16、 if settling into a new country is hard for him, he shakes his head, “No, it was not hard for me.

20、oesnt it feel good to say it out loud? Dont you feel one step closer already? Well, bad news: you should have kept your mouth shut, because that good feeling will make you less likely to do it. Any time you have a goal, there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it. Ideally, you would not b

In 1982, Peter Gollwitzer, a Professor of Psychology, wrote a whole book about this. And in 2009, he did some new tests that were published. It goes like this: 163 people acro

D Theres no doubt that one of the greatest human achievements is the exploration of the space. Ever since astronaut Yuri

28、Gagarin became the first person to be sent into the orbit around the moon in 1961, scientists have been pushing the boundaries further and further.

In fact, many of NASAs key works would never have been possible without them. Recently Hollywood produced a movie called Hidden Figures to focus on a group

30、 of American female mathematicians, especially the black women, who helped NASA send the first American into space. But this was not womens only contribution. Back in 1963, Soviet astronaut Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to be sent into space. However, after that, space flight programs

31、were slow to employ women. In the USA, NASA didnt accept applications from women to become astronauts until 1978. But attitudes have changed and leading officials at NASA say that the first person to set foot on Mars should be a woman. The space agency aims to have a sex-balanced workforce but can o

32、nly achieve that if equal numbers of men and women are trained for science and technology jobs. As Allison McIntryre told the BBC, “My director is a woman. We have female astronauts. We havent put a woman on the moon yet. And I think that perhaps the first person to step on Mars should be a woman.”1
