Gợi ý đáp án

a)

In November 2014, Viet Nam’s first astronaut Pham Tuan and Christer Fuglesang, Sweden’s first astronaut, shared their space mission memories in a meeting in Ho Chi Minh City.

Talking to Tuoi Tre newspaper, the two astronauts said they enjoyed floating around in the weightless environment. ‘From above, Earth didn’t look as big as we had thought,’ Fuglesang, who first flew into space in 2006, recalled. (1) c. ‘No boundaries on Earth can be seen from space,’ he added. ‘I think we should cooperate to take care of our planet like astronauts help each other in space.’

Pham Tuan described his first meal on Earth after the trip as ‘very delicious’. He said it was a great feeling since astronauts do not have fresh food in space. He recounted how his family had helped him, (2) a. ‘We felt very lonely travelling in space, so hearing the voices of our relatives brought a lot of happiness to us.’

Both astronauts agreed that to realise a dream needs effort, but the chance to fly to space is equal for everyone, whether they are from Viet Nam, Sweden, or any other country. Fuglesang said teamwork and social skills are very important for an astronaut as the job requires people to work harmoniously together. (3) b. He also suggested people learn more foreign languages to better collaborate with their teammates.

Gợi ý đáp án

In my opinion, I think an astronaut needs some following qualities and skills. Firstly, they must have good health, otherwise, they cannot survive in space. Secondly, they have to possess deep knowledge about engineering and the spaceship system so that they can solve any emergency in the spaceship. Last but not least, cooperating skills hold no less importance in working as an astronaut because only one astronaut cannot finish a trip into space, he/she have to know how to work together with other members of the crew to succeed in finishing their mission.
