B
Imagine you're taking an exam, and then you find it difficult to answer those questions. And time's running out. Will you waste the little chance that you get to cheat?
Certainly, it's not correct. It's important to follow the rules because the world would turn into a total mess without rules. However, with time passing by and the development of the society, some rules have become barriers (障碍) to people's success. A famous person once said, "We have so many rules in life about everything. But it's impossible to be a creator if you're too well-behaved. You have to think outside the box." Not all rules are equal (合适的). Some are created to restrain people, and some become old and boring. So sometimes, it's okay to break the rules. In 1823, a player took the ball in his arms and ran with it during a school football match. In this way, he started a new sport: rugby (英式橄榄球).
Since you've already known why someone wants to break the rules, now you need to learn how to do it.
Learn the rules first. Qi Baishi is a talented Chinese artist, but he spent much time learning traditional drawing and painting skills before he found his own styles. Master (掌握) it before you break it—that's what you can learn from great minds.
Evaluate (评估) if the result is worth (值得) it. Each person has his own values. Before breaking the rules, think over whether it will go against your values. And the moment you decide to do that, you must be ready to have a wise thought to face the bad results.

① So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.
② Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang'e Flies
to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang'e-1. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang'e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
③ Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called Kuafu-1—a satellite that studies the sun from space.
④ . For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2,000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.
⑤ From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology.
