A Letter of Sympathy
——to the Parents of the Columbia Astronauts
Dear parents of the Columbia astronauts.
I am a student from X X Middle School in China. My name is Li Ming. I was very sorrowful when I learned from TV that SpShuttle Columbia broke up during re-entry and seven astronauts all lost their lives. You have lost your lovely sons arid daughters. You must be very grieved. However, you must also be proud of your children, because they have done great contributions to space projects. So please restrain your sorrow.
Although this time they thiled, we could I get some experience from their failure. We will continue developing space projects, because we can explore the space through those projects and search for more information about sion that they haven’ t done.
Yours Sincerely’
Li Ming
一封慰問信
——致哥倫比亞號宇航員的父母們
親愛的哥倫比亞號宇航員的父母們:
我是一個來自中國xx中學(xué)的學(xué)生,我叫李明。我從電視上得知哥倫比亞號宇宙飛船在返航過程中解體,七位宇航員全部遇難,我感到非常悲痛。你們失去了可愛的兒子和女兒,一定非常悲痛。然而,你們一定也為你們的孩子感到驕傲,因為他們已經(jīng)為航天事業(yè)作出了巨大貢獻。所以請節(jié)哀。盡管這次他們失敗了,但我們可以從他們的失敗中汲取經(jīng)驗。我們會繼續(xù)發(fā)展航空事業(yè),因為通過它們我們能夠探索外層空間,搜索有關(guān)這個世界的更多信息。我們會繼續(xù)完成他們未完成的任務(wù)。
你誠摯的朋友 李明
