Sharing the long journey
The six-month stay for Chinese astronauts in the Tiangong Space Station has just ended. Before they
returned to the earth, they faced one last test — returning home safely. What had they done before
they left the station?
To go home after a long journey, they had to pack up. Besides their personal things, astronauts also
needed to bring home experimental data (实验数据) and samples (样品) for further research on the
earth.
The three astronauts also needed to clean “the house”. They must collect leftover food and the waste.
The waste was put into the orbital module (轨道舱). It burned up as it entered the earth’s
atmosphere (大气层).
The astronauts must also put equipment (设备) back in place. They needed to make sure that things
like gym equipment are fixed to the walls for safety.
Astronauts experience microgravity (微重力) for long periods of time. This affects their bodies. The
three astronauts did physical exercises to keep strong. Experts made exercise plans for each of them
to land safely.
Tiangong Space Station will be completed before the end of this year. Other astronauts will be sent
there for further tasks.
21. How long did the three Chinese astronauts stay in the space station?
A．For six months. B．For seven months.
C．For eleven months. D．For one year.
22. What did they bring back to the earth?
A．Waste. B．Equipment.
