Do video games affect （影响）our children negatively （消极地）? Today, our children spend more and more time online. In the UK, 99% of kids aged 8 to 15 play video games every week, and children as young as five often play video games.
For many people, video games are fun and educational. They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. Video games also make you think in a creative way and you have to move your hands and eyes quickly. This can improve the way that a child's brain works. Video games are also a good way to teach children about technology （科技）because they can learn how computers and other machines work while they play.
However, a recent study suggests that video games can also be bad for children. First, children can download （下载）many games for free. This means that parents often don’t know their children are playing violent （暴力）or scary games. Second, many children spend too much time playing games on computers and mobile phones. This can lead to health problems-- children who spend too much time on the computer and don’t exercise can become overweight. Third, if children spend time playing games instead of doing homework, they can have problems at school and get bad grades.
All in al!, it seems clear that video games have some advantages and some disadvantages. It is up to parents to know what games their children are playing and how much time they spend on them. Parents should also make sure their children get enough exercise and spend time on other children.
46. In Britain,_______of children at the age of8toJUJ play video games every week.

Today, Space exploration （探索）becomes more and more popular in the world. In 2021,
NASA landed its spaceship on Mars. In 2021, Europe and Russia worked together and sent a spaceship to Mars. China and India are also working on similar projects. However, there is one big change: private（私人的）companies, instead of government（政府），are going into the Space Race.
Space X is very successful in commercial （商业的）space travel. They designed the space ship Dragon to send supplies（供给，补给）to the International Space Station（ISS）.

Private companies are lucky in one way. They don't have to wait for money from the government like NASA does. However, that doesn't mean that accidents （事故）don't happen. In 2021, a Space X spaceship that was going to the ISS exploded （爆炸）in Florida. No one was hurt, but important supplies were lost.
However, the race to explore the universe(宇宙) goes on. Some of those companies want to take people to the moon and back one day. Others want to take people to Mars. The possibilities are endless. Maybe in our lifetime, those dreams will come true.
