To become an astronaut, you must go through a strict selection procedure. You need a lot of mental, intelligent and physical training. Besides, you should not only know about the universe, the solar system and our globe, but also understand rockets, satellites, spacecrafts, gravity and so on. In closing, astronauts must have a determined will and a strong desire to succeed. After a spacecraft is launched, make sure it goes in the right orbit. An astronaut on board has a lot of missions to carry on. He must be able to complete a spacewalk independently so as to transmit data to the relevant agencies on the earth.
【中文意思】
要成为一名宇航员，你必须经过严格的选拔程序。你需要大量的心理、智力和体能训练。此外，你不仅应该了解宇宙、太阳系和我们的地球，还应该懂得火箭、卫星、航天器、重力等知识。最后，宇航员必须有坚定的意志和取得成功的强烈愿望。宇宙飞船发射后，确保它在正确的轨道上运行。在宇宙飞船上，宇航员要继续做很多任务。他必须能够独立地完成太空行走，以便将数据传送到地球上的相关专门机构。
Tom keeps in mind the famous saying “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” So he is keen to explore the mysteries of the universe. Once there was virtual training in space, Tom boarded a vehicle called Jade Rabbit in the hope of exploring the final frontier. On the spacecraft there was a microwave, a smartphone, a pillow, an oxygen bottle, some soap, towels, tissues and other facilities to provide for him. After the spacecraft entered its orbit, the monitor signaled regularly. When he was finishing the ongoing mission, he began to float in the capsule for lack of sufficient training, and his muscles ached too. Fortunately, he was attached tightly to the spacecraft. Otherwise, he would float beyond the spaceship. But he felt disappointed when he found his limited resources were running out. He wanted to figure out if the resources could be recycled. Through analysis, Tom argued that the current fatal error was lack of high-end facilities, which resulted in the failure of space training. As a result, he had to signal for help.

汤姆牢记“对一个人来说那是一小步，对人类来说却是一大步”这句名言。于是他热衷于探索宇宙的奥秘。曾经有一次在太空进行虚拟训练，汤姆登上了一辆名为“玉兔”月球车的车辆，抱着能探索最后的边界的希望。航天器上有一台微波炉、一部智能手机、一个枕头、一只氧气瓶、一些肥皂、毛巾、纸巾和其他为他提供生活所需的设施。宇宙飞船进入轨道后，监测仪定期地发出信号。当他就要完成仍在进行的任务时，由于缺乏足够的训练，他开始在太空舱里漂浮，他的肌肉也开始疼痛。幸运的是，他被紧紧地绑在飞船上，否则，他将漂浮在飞船之外。但当他发现自己有限的资源即将耗尽时，他感到很沮丧。他想弄清楚这些资源是否可以回收利用。通过分析，汤姆论证道目前致命的错误是缺乏高端设施，这导致太空训练失败。结果，他不得不发信号求救。
