Professor Lee is talking with a group of students from Yizhou High School. Now Li Hua is asking a question and Professor Lee is answering.
Li Hua: When I hang out with American friends, I'm always afraid to speak. I feel like they will laugh at my accent(口音). What can I do, Professor Lee?
Professor Lee: It's a good question! This is a typical problem among you students. First, it's OK to speak English with an accent. It shows who you are and where you're from. English is an international language. English speakers from the US, the UK, Australia, and South Africa all have different accents. In fact, correct grammar and word choice are much more important. Second, most foreigners are friendly and will not laugh at you. So just relax and be yourself. I always tell my students, "Don't be shy. Just try!" If you have a chance, take it. Finally, failure is the best teacher. As the saying goes, "Failure is the mother of success." Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time, found the secret to success. He said, "I've failed over and over again in my life. And that's why I succeed."
Today is December 15, 2030. Influenced by the launch of the first manned mission to Mars next month, you will most likely get a gift card for a space trip.
The interest in trips, 100km above the surface of the Earth, has grown steadily since such a trip began. However, the market has grown much larger this year since the official announcement of the Mars mission. More low - cost spacelines have entered the market and you can now find flights for such a trip for as low as $3,495.It's very reasonable.
Space tourism( 旅游业，观光业) is one of the markets that have developed fast during the last decade, with the opening of the Starbright Hotel on the moon as well as the low orbital hotels that started accepting guests. However, accommodation in space is still expensive for the average household, so the suborbital (亚轨道的) flights with thirty - minute weightlessness during the three - hour flight will for some time be the most popular trip.
However, the spacelines might in the future face fierce competition between space elevators (太空升降舱), like the one that is projected to start construction within two years. Once it is fully functional, it will start to ship cargo to space. But it will accept passengers as soon as possible to get back the large investment. Even if the elevator becomes successful, it will take several years before there are more elevators in the world to get in the competition for space traffic with the spacelines.
Those who are looking for a little bit of adventure and have extra money to spend may want to consider a suborbital flight in space. While a suborbital flight may not be the space mission that you have always dreamed of, it will give you the rare opportunity to see what our planet looks like in a high - altitude flight outside our atmosl3here. So before you enjoy a trip by elevator to space, enjoy a suborbital flight first.
