Chang'e-6 probe successfully landed in the South Pole-Aitken(SPA)Basin on the far side ofthe Moon, completing the world's first-ever sampling mission and bringing back precious lunar soil samples.
The Chang'e-6 mission was arduous and intricate,requiring multiple stages including launch and orbit insertion,Earth-Moon transfer,surface operations,ascent,rendezvous(交会)and docking(对接) and docking for sample transfer and so on.Each phase was intricately linked and crucial to the mission's success.
The success of Chang²e-6 is a microcosm of China's space program growth.It reinforces our belief that through relentless exploration and innovative thinking,humanifty will continue to unlock more secrets of the cosmos,contributing significantly to global peace and development.
【2】Confucianism was founded by the great philosopher and educator Confucius(551-479 BCE),who brought together the merits of Chinese culture from different stages of the past and was one of the most learned individuals of his time,hence being held as a sage by those of later generations. The core of his philosophy lies in the concept of benevolence.He believed that living benevolently required one to care for others and that one ought not to force others to do anything that oneself would not wish to do.He stated,“The gentleman seeks harmony,not uniformity,”which implies that one must respect differences in interpersonal relationships and not judge others based on single criteria which is the only way for society to achieve peace and stability.He believed that filial piety and fraternal duty are the foundation of benevolence.Filial piety does not merely imply providing for one's parents;it is an attitude of respect to both parents and allother elders alike.Without filial piety,he who provides for his parents is no better than those who feed his dogs.

人”。孔子思想的核心是“仁”,他认为要做到“仁”,就要关爱别人,自己不愿意做的事情不要强加于其他人身上。他还认为,“君子和而不同”,在处理人际关系上要承认人与人之间的 差异,不要用单一的标准来衡量对方,这样才能够达到社会的和谐与稳定。孔子认为孝悌是 仁的基础,孝不仅限于对父母的赡养,还应尊重父母和长辈,认为如缺乏孝敬之心,赡养父 母也就视同于饲养犬,乃大逆不孝。

【2】The Yellow River is the second longest river in China after the Yangtze River, with a length of about 5,464 kilometers.It begins at the Bayan Har Mountains in northwest China's Qinghai Province and flows through nine provinces and autonomous regions before running into the Bohai Sea in East China.It was so named because the river runs across central China's Loess Plateau,picking up an immense load of the yellow-brown silt.The rich silt carried by the Yellow River formed fertile farmland that is the birthplace of Chinese culture.The earliest characters,villages,cities and bronze originated here.The basin of the Yellow River,often hailed the cradle of the Chinese civilization,has served as the center of Chinese politics,economy,and culture for over 2,000 years.
