Giải Tiếng Anh 9 Unit 10: Getting started
Nick: Wow, is that you in this photo? The youngest astronaut in the world doing a spacewalk!
Phuc: Ha! Yeah, it was in a museum in Sweden.
Phuc: Well, that trip made me crazy about space. Before I turned ten, I'd already collected lots of books about the universe. I'd learnt about the planets, the stars, satellites, rockets, and stuff.
Nick: You know, last year I visited an astronomy museum and I touched a meteorite.
Phuc: A meteorite! What was it like?
Nick: Honestly, it wasn't as impressive as I'd expected. It was just like an ordinary piece of rock.
Phuc: But perhaps it was from Mars. Think of that!
Nick: Maybe. Do you think there could be life on Mars?
Phuc: It's possibly habitable. It once had an ocean... Who knows, in 20 years we might be flying there on a discovery mission.
Nick: Haha, but we'd need to do some serious training first. They say you practise by scuba diving in a flight suit...
Phuc: That's right. And you also have to experience microgravity on a parabolic flight.
Phuc: The plane flies at high altitude, then it climbs sharply for a few seconds and descends sharply, a bit like a rollercoaster. The people inside the plane start to float. I'd love to do that.
Nick: Sounds a bit scary. But let's take a look at your rock collection. There may be something interesting here...
Phuc: Yes, perhaps a meteorite that landed on Earth from the moon!
