应办百老哥的紧急要求,我为人在旅途的儿子抄点英语的东西,让他看看。。。
One Sunday morning, not too long ago, three men crawled into the cockpit of a strange looking
spaceship which was strapped to a gigant rocket at Cape Kennedy, Florida. As the entire free world watched in fascination, the countdown for spaceship Clumbia began.
Never bafore had a spaceship taken off from earth, orbited the globe, and returned. It took
an awful lot of power to make it happen.
The rocket itself was 184 feet tall. It weighed 4.1 million pounds. It carried a half million gallon
of fuel. It generated 5 million pounds of thrust--enough power to push the spaceship to the
altitude of 23 miles in two minutes.
After the initial take-off, Columbia climbed to the altitude of 189 miles and dircled the globe
at 17,000 miles in two minutes.
.......................................
Recently a group of highly successful people, when they were asked about the power
that keep aloft, they all gave the same answer. \
