阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

On June 5th, China launched (发射) the three-person Shenzhou XIV, which is the third crew (乘组) for the country’s space station project. The astronauts will work with the ground team to finish the building of the Tiangong Space Station. The crew arrived at Tiangong on Sunday afternoon.

Liu Yang, the first Chinese woman in outer space, said on Saturday in Jiuquan, that she and two other astronauts—Chen Dong and Cai Xuzhe—would be very busy during their stay, and they were going to do their job while Tiangong Space Station was changing its shape. With the help of the ground team, it would change itself nine times.

At the same time, the astronauts would also need to prepare for the arrival of the Shenzhou XV crew and Tianzhou 5 ship near the end of their journey, Liu added.

“In addition, we will use a new hatch (舱门) and a new small robotic arm to do spacewalks. We will perform a large number of scientific experiments and also offer educational activities for pupils online,” she said. “This is also the first time that Chinese astronauts will celebrate our National Day in space.”

In an interview with China Central Television before they flew to the space, Liu said she had talked to her daughter and son about her six-month trip.

“I explained why their mom needed to take part in this great project and why I would be away from home for half a year. I also told them what, they needed to do during this period of time. At first, they were not so happy about my leaving, but they finally said later that they understood,” she said.

“They told me that they wanted me to take as many pictures as possible so they could share the beauty of space with their classmates.”

Learn science

Learning is important, too. Astronauts take 60 classes to get ready for a mission, like math, English, spacecraft design, physics and many more. So they will know what to do when something bad happens (发生) during the mission.

6．Who doesn’t join in the Shenzhou XIV mission?

A．Yang Liwei.                       B．Liu Yang.                           C．Cai Xuzhe.

The Shenzhou XIV mission(任务)—China’s ninth manned spaceflight—launched(发射) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on June 5, 2022.

The three astronauts—Chen Dong, Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe—are being sent to the Tiangong space station. They will stay there for half a year. This is the second time Chen and Liu have gone into space. The flight of three astronauts is also expected to mark the beginning of a period of ten years. During this period, there will be Chinese people in outer space every day.

As of the spacecraft’s arrival on that day, the Tiangong station consists of three parts—the Tianhe core module(核心舱), the Tianzhou 3 and the Tianzhou 4 cargo(货运) ships.

The three astronauts will work with ground controllers to connect the Wentian and Mengtian space labs with the Tianhe module. And then they use a robotic arm to move the labs to their permanent position. Wentian, the station’s first lab part, will be lifted in July by a Long March 5B rocket from Hainan province, while the second lab Mengtian will be launched by the same rocket model in October. After they are connected with Tiangong, the station will form a T-shaped structure.

During their stay, the astronauts will finish two to three spacewalks and give science classes to students. In the second half of their mission period, the Tianzhou 5 cargo craft and the Shenzhou XV astronauts will arrive at the station. The Shenzhou XIV and XV astronauts will meet inside the Tiangong and work together for a short time before Chen’s team flies back to Earth in December.

China has been making one achievement after another with its space missions that reflects the rapid development of its aerospace area. The surprising achievements China has made in space exploration are expected to attract more young people to devote their talents to the meaningful thing that benefits humankind as a whole.
