Ⅱ. 完形填空。
Have you ever imagined living and working on the moon? For many space lovers, this is not just a dream. Scientists around the world are working hard to build a permanent research station there, which will open a new chapter in human space 1.
The moon station will be a perfect place for scientists to 2 and do space research. New technologies can be developed, tested, and 3 there, and these technologies will later help us build bases on Mars and other planets. 4 the moon has no air or water, it still has special energy resources that can be used to solve Earth’s energy problems in the future.
What’s more, the station will allow people to live and work on the moon. Tourists will even be able to visit it one day. I hope to be one of the first 5 to enter the moon station and experience the weightless life there.
Humans have already achieved many space dreams that seemed impossible in the past. We have sent spacecraft to deep space, landed on the moon, and built space stations in orbit. These 6 show that our space dream is not far away.
I believe that with continuous efforts, the moon research station will be built in the near future. It will help 7 understand the universe better and make the wildest dream of visiting other planets come true. I also hope that this great project will be completed 8 2050, so I can witness this amazing moment.
