四、阅读理解
Science fiction pioneer and writer Wu Yan won this year's National Outstanding Children's Literature Award
for his latest work China Orbit. The book focuses on the development of the Chinese aerospace(航空航天) industry,
and it was inspired by the planning and preparation for China's first but canceled manned spacecraft, “Shuguang 1”,
also known as Project 714, during the late 1960s and early 1970s.
“I collected many historical documents and stories and started writing decades ago,” Wu remembered. Partly
based on Wu's own experiences in the 1970s, the book is a combination of reality and fiction, and in some ways his
own memoir(回忆录) was added into the science fiction. This innovative and unique writing method makes the
book stand out and has even stirred up a debate on how to categorize it. Is it science fiction, popular science,
children's literature, or aerospace literature?
His fellow science fiction writer Liu Cixin, author of The Three- Body Problem, sees it more deeply, and
believes China Orbit is not really children's science fiction or popular science. He thinks it is too complicated to

warned people not to try to earn quick money from it after The Three Body Problem frenzy and movie
blockbuster The Wandering Earth because Chinese science fiction still has a long way to go. “We need to build
Chinese science fiction step by step, with an accumulation(积累)of really great works. We need to innovate, and
treat it as part of building China's new culture, ” Wu said.
