60篇短文搞定托福高频词Chapter 3

In the not-so-distant future, Earth faced a spatial crisis, with its vast population and increasingly limited space. It seemed as if humanity's survival was uncertain. The American government, realizing the seriousness of the situation, decided to explore the possibility of living beyond Earth's boundaries. 

Scientists and engineers worked tirelessly to advance space travel, aiming to establish a sizeable space colony. As they made significant progress, they received word of an impending meteorite headed straight for Earth. This occurrence heightened the urgency of their mission. The loss of Earth was an outcome they couldn't bear to imagine. 

With time running out, the team managed to build a few spacecrafts, designed to hold the remainder of the human population. These crafts, equipped with the most advanced technology, allowed humans to survive in the harsh conditions of outer space. The new space colony, made possible by this innovation, was a testament to human perseverance and ingenuity. 

As the meteorite drew closer to Earth, the colony's inhabitants prepared for the worst. They watched from their new home, expecting the planet they once called home to be lost. However, as the meteorite approached Earth, a seemingly impossible event occurred. The Earth's atmosphere and the meteorite's trajectory combined to cause it to break apart and burn up, sparing the planet from utter destruction. 

Though the threat had passed, the people of the space colony continued to live in their new habitat, realizing the advantages of their spacious surroundings. The inhabitants of both Earth and the space colony remained in contact, forging a unique bond that transcended their differences, allowing them to work together for a more promising future.
