Speaking exercise

I did some homework for English class. We ate at home last night. This morning I read a book. Its a science fiction, aliens attack humans on earth and ships. Lunch was really bad, I just only ate 4 dumplings. The aliens live in the internet and make the university 2D so humans die but they survive because they are in the internet.

If the humans fly their spaceship as fast as light, then they can survive
