Sample article If I visited the
moon, I might have three problems how to
breathe, how to eat and how to move around.
24
I would find it difficult to move around on
the moon as I would weigh one-sixth what I weigh
on the earth. This means I would bounce like a
balloon if I try to walk. I would have to learn
to walk differently so that I dont fall over.
25
I would have to carry all my air with me if
I went to the moon. This is because the moon has
no air of its own. So I would need oxygen tanks
placed on my back so I could breathe all the time.
26
I would have to take all my food with me
if I went to the moon. In the spaceship, there is
no gravity so the food would float around. So, I
would make sure that it is specially made as
space food and then I would be able to eat it
easily.
27
If I follow this advice, I think I will have
a good holiday on the moon.
