Many years ago, people used to buy what they needed from stores and markets.
Now where would you go if you wanted to buy all these goods at one time? Ask anybody,
and he would probably say "you'd better go to the supermarket". A supermarket is a
special kind of market. It is usually much larger than an ordinary store. In a supermarket,
you can buy all kinds of food, household, products and daily necessities. In a store, a
customer is served by a storekeeper but in a supermarket, the goods are arranged on rows
of shelves along the aisles. The prices are printed on small labels on the goods. A
customer gets goods he needs from the shelves. This is known as self-service. Of course,
you can always ask for help from the supermarket shop assistants.
When you enter a supermarket, you take a basket to carry the goods you will buy. If
you want to buy a lot of things, you will need a trolley. A trolley is like a large basket on
wheels. You can push it along the aisles, choose what you want from the shelves and put
it into your trolley. A supermarket often provides a more comfortable environment for
shopping than a market that is usually wet and dirty. As a result, many people usually buy
more goods than they need when they visit a supermarket.

wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going there.

names were Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was that the moon

is covered with dust. The dust is so thick that the men left footprints where they walked. Those
were the first marks a living thing had ever made on the moon. And they could stay there for
years and years. There is no wind or rain to wipe them off.
The two men walked on the moo for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to earth
for study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted
to know. Then they climbed back into their moon landing craft.
Next day the landing craft roared as the men took off the moon. They joined Michael
Collins in the spaceship that wait for them above the moon. Then they were off on their long
