Many children act in TV shows. They work several hours every day, so they cannot go to regular school. How do they get their education?

In Hollywood many TV shows are made. About forty teachers give lessons for the children in the shows. They teach wherever their pupils are working. The teachers' job is very important. They are responsible for making sure that the children work only the permitted hours each week. They are also responsible for making sure that the children learn the required subjects. They make sure, too, that the children get enough rest and play, along with their education.

Child actors are required to attend classes twenty hours each week. California law says they must be taught from September to June. If they do not make much progress in school, they are not permitted to continue working in TV shows. TV children are usually good pupils, and most of their teachers like this special kind of work. Their classes are held in some wonderful places. Sometimes the “classroom” is a Mississippi riverboat. Sometimes it is the inside of a spaceship. Often the pupils become famous stars.

  “Captain, we are almost there. What do you want us to do?”

Twenty years of plans. Twenty years of wondering. Twenty years and our spaceship was about to arrive. What will we find? Was the information we were given correct? As the captain of the spaceship, I would soon know.

Where are we? We are coming to the nearest star to the sun. It takes 4 light years to go to this star. We have taken almost twenty years. We have the largest spaceship that has ever been built.

We had a simple way of traveling. We learned from bears how to sleep for a long time without getting sick or dying. We should sleep for eleven months. We would work for one month. Then we would go back to sleep for eleven months. I found it unusual to have my calendar(日历) always read March. That was the month I was awake. I have lived in the month of March for the last twenty years.

Here we are. We are coming near to this new star. There is a planet that is supposed to be like earth here. Will it be? Will we be able to live here?

I have to get busy now. We will start to wake up all of the other people. They will also want to see this. We have people from every place on earth. Think of all that we will get to see here. This is something to really get excited about.

I have to go. Have a good day. Wish us good luck.
