Question

Our reporter asked people what they were doing on July 20th, 1969 when man first walked

on the Moon. Here is what they said:

Kate Jones, waitress: I remember that day very well. I was fifteen years old. It was a hot day and I was with my family in the mountains. We were having a picnic. We didn’t see the Moon landing when it happened, but we were thinking about it. We saw it later on the TV news.

John Bates, postman: I was eighteen years old. It was a very exciting day. I was watching TV at home when the astronaut walked on the Moon. His name was Neil Armstrong. I remember he could jump really high because people aren’t so heavy on the Moon. When he returned, he became a national hero in America, and famous all over the world.

Paul Robinson, doctor: I was twelve. I remember the day, but I don’t remember what I was doing. I remember I wanted to go to the Moon, too. My dream was to become an astronaut and fly in a rocket (火箭). I wanted to see the Earth from the Moon. The astronauts on the Moon said that the Earth looked very beautiful from there.

Linda Brown, driver: I was working that day. I was twenty then. I didn’t see the man land on the Moon because I was busy. Of course I knew about it. I read about it in the newspaper the next day. I thought it was amazing. Maybe one day people will travel to the Moon for vacations!
