During the voyage, time seems to stop, and her youth appears preserved, symbolized by sunrays matching the ship’s speed. Yet when the shuttle lands, Andy is nowhere to be found—until an old man reveals, “I’m Andy,” reframing what “eternal youth” has cost.","The Shuttle of Everlasting Youth Maria Daadouch  \nShaymaa Sobhi  \nAnn loved to look at her long hair, smooth skin, and strong figure in the mirror everyday. Her screen companion always told her how young and beautiful she looked. But her screen companion did not leave the house, and at times Ann was lonely.  \nThen, one day Ann met a young man named Andy. They fell in love .  \nWhen it rained, they dashed through the raindrops together with glee. Whenever Ann had heavy bags, Andy offered to carry them for her. And Ann always shared her chocolate bar with Andy.  \nThey soon decided to get married.  \nBut a few years later, when looking in the mirror, Ann saw a wrinkle below her eye.”I am growing old! I will no longer be young and beautiful. What can I do?”  \nAnn searched and searched for a way to stay young. Finally, she found a solution to her problem in a magazine. She saw an advertisement that promised to change everything. It read:  \n”Do you want to stop time from passing? Then come aboard our shuttle of everlasting youth!”  \nAnn told Andy that she wanted to buy a ticket for the shuttle. Andy thought Ann looked beautiful no matter what, but he also wanted her to be happy, so he agreed.  \nIt was soon time for her trip. Ann boarded hopefully, then waved goodbye to Andy. She couldn’t wait to return to him looking youthful forever .  \nAs the ship began to take off, the captain announced,”Welcome aboard passengers. We will soon be moving at the speed of light, when time will stop and you will never grow old! While on this ship, your youth is eternal.”  \nAnn was curious to discover what she would see in the darkness of space. She was amazed to find that the rays of sun which passed alongside the ship were moving at the same speed as she was!  \nShe loved watching the light race by, it reminded her of Andy, who loved to run .  \nAs the day went on, Ann began to miss Andy, so she talked to the sun ray as if it was her beloved husband.”What should I knit while I am here, Andy? Some socks with hearts, stars, or cars?”  \nAfter she completed the socks, which she had decided to knit with hearts, stars, AND cars, Ann checked her watch. It had kept on ticking at the same rate just as it always had, eventhough she had been traveling at the speed of light.  \nAnn wondered if it was really true. Had she really stopped aging during this amazing trip?  \n8  \nWhen the shuttle landed, Ann departed and looked around for Andy. But she couldn’t find him anywhere! He wouldn’t have forgotten her, would he?  \nShe asked an old man sitting nearby if he had seen a young man named Andy.  \nHe just smiled and said, ”I’m Andy.”","cbCaieMqWl1XaEsD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieMqWl1XaEsD","pdf",526657,2,18,"English","en",105,"# Plot Overview\n## Ann’s Promise of Eternal Youth\n## The Voyage and Time’s Illusion\n## Arrival and the Final Revelation","[{\"question\":\"Why does Ann decide to board the shuttle of everlasting youth?\",\"answer\":\"Ann becomes anxious after noticing a wrinkle and worries she is growing old.
