2. How are these names: Yuri Gagarin, Vostok 1, Baikonur Cosmodrome, Neil Armstrong, Opportunity and Curiosity, NASA related to space exploration? Yuri Gagarin (1961) Neil Armstrong (1969) Baikonur - How many planets are there? Name them. - What is the biggest planet? - What is the smallest planet? - Who was the first person in space? - Who was the first human to walk on the Moon? Descriptor A pair work gives the answers to questions Task 2 While- reading Mission to Mars 1. Humans love to explore. We crossed oceans to discover new lands. We explored the highest, coldest and most remote places on Earth. In 1961, Yury Gagarin boarded Vostok 1 at Baikonur Cosmodrome and became the first person in space. Eight years later, Neil Armstrong was the first human to walk on the Moon. Now, we’re turning our attention to Mars as the next step on our journey of exploration. 2. Why Mars? Well, firstly, it’s not too far. Apart from Venus, it’s our closest neighbour, so the journey will take months and years. Temperatures on Venus are over 4000C so humans can’t go there, but on Mars the average temperature is about -630C. Other planets like Jupiter and Saturn are big balls of gas with extremely strong winds, but Mars has a solid rocky surface. 3. We are learning more about Mars with the help of rovers. There are robots with wheels, and two American rovers, Opportunity and Curiosity, are already there. They are exploring and sending information to Earth for scientists to study, It’ll soon be like rush hour on Mars as a European and Russian rover and a third American rover are going to join Opportunity and Curiosity soon. 4. Of course, the dream for many people is to send humans to Mars. NASA, the American space agency, is aiming to do this in the 2030s. It won’t be easy for the astronauts as they will have to send almost three years away from Earth, but it will be worth it. Neil Armstrong made “one giant leap for mankind.” The first astronaut on Mars will make an even greater one. жүктеу/скачать 2,75 Mb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
