Ⅱ.阅读理解
Everyone knew I wanted to be an astronaut. Most people knew that I was also fascinated by basketball, and I just assumed that if I wanted to be in the NBA, I could. Few people knew that I read every John Grisham's novel starting from the age of 12 and wanted to be a lawyer.
As a young girl, I used to see Space Camp, the movie shown just after the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster. Every time I watched it, I got lost in my imagination. I was Katherine, the lead character who wanted to be the first female space shuttle commander. I had a robot friend named Jinx who could cause a major failure and send me into space. Because of that movie, I decided to become an astronaut.
All these Hollywood shows have an opportunity to influence kids. I am the living proof that young kids watch the products of Hollywood and are inspired by them or turned away by them. It's a serious responsibility.
Even as an adult today, my interests change much more quickly than I wish they did. I am truly addicted to trying new things! But I am proud of myself for trying. I hope I never lose that desire — to try. After all, my greatest achievement isn't actually achieving the final goal but rather that I at least tried.
To my joy, I was selected for an interview in the 2013 astronaut selection. I didn't actually get selected as an astronaut that year, but the experience alone was enough to inspire me never to give up. In the end, if I never make it into space to witness the beauty of this planet with my own eyes, at least I can say I have tried.
