Today’s key word is Mission 1
Mission 任务；使命
A mission is an important task (任务)that people are given to do.
Here is an example:
A classic 2 line Tom Cruise 3 said in the movie“Mission impossible” is Mission accomplished 4!
汤姆克鲁斯在电影不可能的任务中的经典台词就是任务完成！
And the mission we are going to talk about today is not as dangerous as the one Tom Cruise took on in the movie. It’s a feel good mission. 任务代号： Operation Christmas Drop话说，在1952年，有一个美国空军飞行员在关岛驻扎。One day, he noticed residents 5 on a small Micronesian island waving at them.每当他们飞过密克罗尼西亚岛上空时，岛上的居民都会向飞机招手。这位空军士兵和他的战友们就猜想岛上的居民可能需要帮助吧。Then, the crew gathered items from the plane and dropped them with a parachute(降落伞).
于是，这个传统就慢慢的延续下来了。
Every year, the U.S. air force drops food and toys on those remote（遥远的） islands during the Christmas season. This year, Australia and Japan have joined the mission for the first time. The packages（包裹） they dropped on the island can support around 20,000 people across 56 islands in Micronesia, the Mariana Islands and Palau（帕劳）. 美国这是既送了温暖，有加强了和澳日小伙伴的关系。
Anyway, Christmas is coming. Even though you may think that Christmas is a festival from western countries, it is still a good opportunity to spend some time with your loved ones and family.
