It was 7:45 in the morning. Commander Church was in the bed, Engineer Datum was in the kitchen and Lieutenant Riker and Dr Novak were at the controls. 翻译：那是早上7点45分。丘奇指挥官躺在床上，达图姆工程师在厨房，赖克副官和诺瓦克博士在监控室。

There was a big explosion on the spaceship's computer! There was a fire and the astronauts were scared. But the planet Quark was near. The planet was strange but it was okay because there was oxygen. The plants were strange - there were big blue cactuses with red flowers. There were some big black snakes on the plants. The sky was yellow and there were black clouds. It was very cold on the planet. Then there was a signal on Dr Novak's radio. There was life on Quark! 翻译：宇宙飞船的电脑上发生了大爆炸！起火了，那些宇航员很害怕。但是夸克星球就在附近。那颗星球很奇怪，但是它还不错，因为那里有氧气。那里的植物很奇怪——有开着红花的巨大蓝色仙人掌。在那些植物上还有一些大黑蛇。天空呈黄色，乌云密布。那颗星球上非常寒冷。那时，诺瓦克博士的收音机里有了信号。夸克上存在生命！

Read the story. Draw the astronauts' route on the map. 翻译：读故事。在地图上画出那些宇航员所走的路线。

The astronauts wanted to find life on the planet. They started their journey, went west and crossed a desert with giant cactuses. They saw some red and yellow zebras. The zebras were friendly and the astronauts decided to stay the night there. 翻译：宇航员想在那颗星球上找到生命。他们起程往西行走，然后穿过了一片长满巨大仙人掌的沙漠。他们看见了一些红黄相间的斑马。那些斑马很友好，于是宇航员们决定在那里过夜。

The next morning, they saw an oasis with fruit trees. Then they arrived at a big river. Dr Novak saw two boats and the astronauts sailed south. They saw some dolphins but they were not friendly. Three killer dolphins attacked the boat but Lieutenant Riker killed them. The weather was very bad and there was a big tornado but the astronauts were okay. Then they arrived at a beautiful bridge. They travelled for two days. They were very tired and scared. But then they saw a spectacular, modern palace. It was the palace of the Grand Emperor of Quark. This emperor was famous-he was a space pirate and he wasn't very friendly to visitors! 翻译：第二天早上，他们看见了一片长满果树的绿洲。然后他们来到了一条大河边。诺瓦克博士看见了两条小船，然后宇航员们就向南航行了。他们看见了一些海豚，但是它们并不友好。三只杀人海豚袭击了小船，但是赖克副官把它们给杀死了。天气非常糟糕，还起了很大的龙卷风，不过宇航员们还好。然后他们来到了一座美丽的桥上。他们长途跋涉了两天，又累又怕。但是之后他们就看见了一座宏伟壮观的现代化宫殿。那是夸克大帝的宫殿。这位皇帝很出名——他是太空海盗，而且他对访客们很不友好！

'Okay, ' said the emperor. 'That is right. You are lucky! Help these strange astronauts. Goodbye.' 翻译：“好吧，”皇帝说。“回答正确。你们真是幸运啊！快帮帮这些陌生的宇航员吧。再见。”
