Living In Space

Living in space
Some day people will live in space. By the end of the century there will, be permanent settlements that will allow people to lead a normal life in space. Hundreds of astronauts are going to work and live in the space station, which will take ten years to build.II.
In some way, living on the moon will be easier than living on a space station. And it will be cheaper because peoplewon’t bring everything from the earth by rockets. The space city will be like a gigantic glass wheel that will contain buildings, forms, factories and special meeting-places. Inside it, people won’t live differently from small towns on Earth. It will have air so that inhabitants can breathe, and they won’t need to wear special space-suits inside the buildings.III.
Scientists also believe thatthey will obtain water from a large ice lake on the moon. People won’t have to do housework because robots will do that for them. Food won’t be a problem, as settlers won’t need to eat. Instead, they will take a pill three times a day!
The first group of astronauts will live on the moon for six months and then they will return to earth and another group will travel. This will be repeated until thefirst settlers can establish permanently in the new city. Life on the moon will only be the beginning. We hope they will use the knowledge we get there to plan expeditions to Mars, Mercury and even Pluto.

1. Video predictions
Stopthe video as something is about to happen and see if students can predict what it will be, such as what the character will see when they enter the room or who will end up killing who. Make sure that you only need to watch a short segment to find out if their predictions were right or not, for example watching just the beginning and end of a film. If you choose the right video, it is possible todo the “stop and predict, watch to check, stop and predict” sequence over and over again as the video goes on. Short comedy sketches with little dialogue such as the Mr Bean series, Pingu, or the Wallace and Gromit films are easiest for this. If your students are unlikely to come out with their own predictions, you can ask them to choose them from the options you give them orally or from aworksheet. Be careful that the place where you stop the video is not a situation when there is clear physical evidence of what is going to happen such as a vase that is leaning over, as it is more natural to use “going to for predictions with present evidence” (e.g. “The vase is going to fall on the floor and break”) for such situations.
