Long long ago,there was a young man who made his living by making tofu. One day,the tofu was not sold out. In order to keep the tofu fresh,he cut it into pieces and mixed some flavors (香料) with it. Then he put it into a crock (瓦罐) .Several days later,he opened the crock and found that the smell was terrible. But he tasted a piece. To his surprise,the taste was nice.

As expected,the smelly tofu became popular with local people,and soon it was well known all over the whole nation.

Spaceship One is a 6-meter-long white spaceship. On June 21 ,American pilot Mike Melvill flew it to space and back―about 100 kilometers up into the sky.(1) Some might say it's not a big deal. You know,people went to the moon years ago.

Lots of people want to travel in space. But it's too expensive.
