Download this free A2–B1 English worksheet PDF for English learners and teachers. This lesson is based on the question of whether some people would accept a one-way trip to Mars.
Students practise reading comprehension, useful vocabulary and speaking skills through a real-world space topic about Mars, adventure, danger, loneliness, possessions, familiar places and life far from Earth. The worksheet is suitable for private English lessons, online classes, classroom teaching, homework and self-study.
The article explains the topic in clear, simple English. Students read that Mars One once invited ordinary people to apply for a journey with no planned return. The project failed, but the idea still raises questions about exploration, risk and what people would be willing to leave behind.
This worksheet helps lower-level learners discuss space travel and difficult choices in accessible English. Students talk about whether they would visit Mars if they could return safely, whether they would accept a one-way trip, which possessions they would take, and what food, people or places they would miss most.
The PDF includes a short A2–B1 reading text, True / False questions, Synonym Match, a task where students use new vocabulary, discussion questions and a full answer key. It helps learners build useful vocabulary for talking about journeys, danger, loneliness, limited supplies, solving problems, familiar places and personal possessions.
