　　“Katy, get your books. It's time to go to school,”said Mum.

　　“But I don't like to,”Katy said.

　　“Well, go and have fun,”Mum told her.

　　When Katy got to school, some children asked her to play with them. She really wanted to, but she was too shy to say yes.

　　That night when Katy got home she wasn't happy, so she went straight to her room to play with her friend Jimmy the Tiger. She told Jimmy about her shyness and Jimmy told her,“Tomorrow at school, I will help you, and you will feel good about talking to other children.”

　　The next morning, after breakfast, she left home to catch a bus as usual, but this time with Jimmy. On the bus, Jimmy started telling Katy how he was going to help her to talk to other children. When the bus arrived at school, Katy jumped off and ran to her classroom to put her books away. Then she ran outside. But suddenly she stopped.

　　“I can't go over and ask to play with them!!!”

　　“Go !”said Jimmy.

　　As she was walking over to the children, a girl said to her,“Hey, Katy, do you want to play with us?”Katy said,“Yes, I would love to.”She was so happy. From that day on she loved going to school. And now she is happy to go to school alone, without Jimmy the Tiger.

An astronaut’s work may sound exciting, but living in space isn’t as fun as you think. The website www.space.com lists the disadvantages of living in space. Here are some of them.

When astronauts work outside the station during spacewalks, they have to wear special gloves. The gloves are very tight. They can hurt the astronauts’ fingernails(手指甲) and even make them fall off.

In space, you don’t have many choices in what you eat. It’s hard to get fresh fruits and vegetables. It is not OK to eat bread because it leaves crumbs(碎屑). Crumbs could fly around everywhere.

In space, it is impossible to have a good shower because water can fly all over the ship and break the machines. Astronauts have to use a special water-shooting(喷水) gun and a washcloth.

Astronauts lose their bone strength quickly during their stay in space. So far, there is no way to solve this problem. They do exercise while they’re in space to try to keep their bones strong as long as possible.

Perhaps the hardest part of life in space is the feeling of loneliness. Astronauts sometimes have to spend weeks and even months away from Earth. They miss their friends and families.
