Reading

Today we will get acquainted with new topic about «Mission to Mars».

1. Humans love to explore. We crossed oceans to discover new lands. We explored the highest, coldest and most remote places on Earth. In 1961, Yury Gagarin boarded Vostok 1 at Baikonur Cosmodrome and became the first person in space. Eight years later, Neil Armstrong was the first human to walk on the Moon. Now, we’re turning our attention to Mars as the next step on our journey of exploration.

2. Why Mars? Well, firstly, it’s not too far. Apart from Venus, it’s our closest neighbour, so the journey will take months and years. Temperatures on Venus are over 400⁰C so humans can’t go there, but on Mars the average temperature is about -63⁰C. Other planets like Jupiter and Saturn are big balls of gas with extremely strong winds, but Mars has a solid rocky surface.

3. We are learning more about Mars with the help of rovers. There are robots with wheels, and two American rovers, Opportunity and Curiosity, are already there. They are exploring and sending information to Earth for scientists to study, It’ll soon be like rush hour on Mars as a European and Russian rover and a third American rover are going to join Opportunity and Curiosity soon.

4. Of course, the dream for many people is to send humans to Mars. NASA, the American space agency, is aiming to do this in the 2030s. It won’t be easy for the astronauts as they will have to send almost three years away from Earth, but it will be worth it. Neil Armstrong made “one giant leap for mankind.” The first astronaut on Mars will make an even greater one.

Task 2

Listen to a show about the solar system and mark the sentences as T (true) or F (false)

A: Hello, everyone. Today, we're going to talk

about the solar system. We start with the Sun. It isat the centre of our solar system. It is the biggest object in it. Everything moves around it, including

the eight planets.

B: The inner planets are small and rocky, They arealso closest to the Sun. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The Earth is unusual because it's got both water and ice. Mercury and Mars have some ice on them too.

C: The outer planets are big balls of gas and they don't have a solid surface.They are:Jupiter, Saturn,Uranus and Neptune. They can also be stormy places. On Jupiter there is a huge storm hundreds of years old. On Neptune the winds are faster than1000 mph.

D: However, there are other objects in the solar system. The outer planets have over ten moons each. Jupiter has the most with 67. Not all of themare as empty as the Earth's Moon. One of Jupiter's moon has a sea with ice on top. There are also asteroids which are like planets but smaller. They move around the Sun between Mars and Jupiter. There's also a large area of asteroids further out than Neptune. Moreover, there are four big asteroids which we call dwarf planets. Scientists may find more dwarf planets in the future.

Thank you for listening to us.

1. The Sun is bigger than the planets. (T)

2. The Earth is the only planet with ice on it (F)

3. There are strong winds on the outer planets (T)

4. Jupiter has moon a moon with ice on it (T)

5. All the asteroids are small (F)

Task 3

How well do you know your planets? Carefully read descriptions of the planets from 1 to 8, and try to identify Earth, Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Venus from the texts.

1. This planet was named after the Roman god of war. It is often called the Red Planet because of its colour. There are canyons, volcanic mountains, frozen water and ice caps on this planet.

2. This planet is the only planet named after a woman – the goddess of love. Lightning flashes and thunder roars day and night. This planet is the most easily identifiable object in the night sky after the Moon.

3. Because of its pale blue colour, this planet was named after the Roman god of water. It was originally thought to have two moons, but astronomers have now discovered four new moons. Like Jupiter and Saturn, it radiates more energy than it receives from the Sun.

4. It is the fastest-moving planet and the closest to the Sun. It was named after the speedy messenger of the Roman gods. It has no moons and no atmosphere. It travels around the Sun in 88 Earth days and its surface temperature can rise to over 400 degrees centigrade.

5. This planet travels around the Sun in 84 Earth years. It is blue-green and has black rings around it, which are thought to be made of rock. This planet is unusual because it lies on its side. It was named after the Roman god who was the father of Saturn and the grandfather of Jupiter.

6. In Latin, it is called Terra Mater. It is the only planet known to sustain life. This planet is covered more by water than land (70% water). It travels around the Sun in 365 days.

7. It is called the King of the Planets and was named after the king of the Roman gods. It is the largest planet and weighs more than all the other planets put together. It has at least 17 moons and has a red spot that is a hurricane-like storm larger than the Pacific Ocean.

8. This planet was named after the Roman god of farming. It is famous for its seven main rings made of icy particles, some as large as buildings. It is the second largest planet and yellow in colour. It takes 29.46 Earth years to circle the Sun.
