     If you watch the sky about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some "movingstars". But
they're not real stars. They are man-made satellites. And the biggest of all is the International Space
Station ( ISS國際空間站).
     From now until July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth, and people can see it
just with their eyes. The ISS is the biggest man-made satellite because scientists want to live on it. They
think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.
     When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with
many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The
ISS is the most ambitious(雄心勃勃) and expensive space program ever.
     Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year.
     Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping-stone (墊腳石) for future space exploration.
     "The ISS will help us better understand the human body, explore space and study the earth. It can
help us make life on the earth better," said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.
     China is not an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. China sent some rice up
to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.
     The ISS is not finished yet. More than 100 parts need to be put on. Scientists hope it will be finished
as soon as possible. After it's finished, more than 90% of the world's population will be able to see the
Space Station. So keep looking up, and maybe you'll see it get bigger.
1. The ISS is          .
A. a world power station

    If you go into the forest with friends who are older than you are, stay with them. If you don't, you may get lost. If you get lost, this is what you should do.

　　Sit down and stay where you are. Don't try to find your friends--let them find you. You can help them to find you by staying in one place.

　　There is another way you can help your friends or other people to find you. Give them a signal(信號) by shouting three times. Stop. Then shout three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help.

　　Keep up the shouting, always three times together. Then the people who hear you will know than you are not just making noise for fun(開玩笑). They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give two shouts. When a signal is given twice it is an answer to a call for help.

　　If you don't think you will be found before nights comes, get some branches(樹枝). Try to put them together so that they make a little house. Cover up the holes with branches that have lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.

　　What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You should leave your little branch house to look for a river. Don't just walk away. Make a trail(痕跡) for yourself so you find your way back. Do this by picking off small branches and dropping them as you walk.
