Guangfu,went into space aboard the Shenzhou XIII on October 16th last year.And now they are preparing for their return trip in the middle of April,2022.The 41-year-old Wang became the first female astronaut(女航天员)to enter Tiangong space station.She also became a space teacher and gave two lessons to students on Earth.Wangs space dream started in 2003,when China sent its first astronaut Yang Liwei into space.At that time,Wang was a pilot in the Chinese army.After having safe flights for 1,600 hours over nine years,Wang was a candidate(候选人)to become an astronaut in 2010.She pushed herself hard,getting the same training as men.“The space environment wont change just because you are a woman,”she told Xinhua.The hardest part is the high-G training.Sitting in a spinning(旋转的)machine,Wang would become blind for a while because her brain was short of blood.“Theres a red button(按钮),”said Wang.“If you cant bear it,you can press it to stop.”But Wang never used it.“There is no such red button in my heart.”That strong spirit finally made her dream come true in 2013.She joined the team for the Shenzhou X mission.Wang said that as astronauts,women have their own advantages.“Women may be more patient and can better deal with loneliness.Womens hearts are also easier to adapt(适应)to the weightless environment,making them more suitable for long-term missions.”Wang Yaping went a long

quite different from Chinese restaurant menus.But how are they different?Most Western restaurant menus do not have as many pictures as Chinese ones dowith a picture,you can tell what is in a dish.In some expensive Western restaurants,a menu may not have any pictures at all.But most Western menus show a list of ingredients(原料)for each dish.If you order a burger,the menu might tell you that the burger has cheese,ketchup and mustard(芥末).The menu can also tell you how the food is cooked,for example,whether it is fried or steamed(蒸).Western restaurants use many different methods to design their menus and make them more attractive.In fact,there is a whole industry called“menu making”,according to the BBC.Menu makers are experts at designing menus.Their menus can increase sales and influence customers thoughts.A well-designed menu can encourage customers to eat certain dishes.It can even make them believe that your restaurants food is of higher quality,even if they havent eaten the food yet.For example,using descriptive(描述性的)words like“juicy”or“cheesy”can help dishes sell better.Instead of just writing“steak(牛排)”in their menu,a restaurant might write“sizzling steak”.This makes the steak sound more delicious.Also,it is known that people pay the most attention to items at the top of a page.This is the best place for dishes that you want to order.As you can see,menus are not just simple lists of food!8.How are different between Western restaurant menus and Chinese menus?AChinese menus have easy pictures.BWestern menus have small pictures.CWestern menus have less or even no
