On April 2, we said goodbye to Tiangong I, China’s first space lab. According to the China Manned Space Agency (中國(guó)載人航天), Tiangong I re-entered the Earth’s atmosphere (大氣層) and some of its debris (碎片) fell into the South Pacific Ocean.

There are many spacecraft (宇宙飛船) that are still in orbit

(軌道) above the Earth. After finishing their trips, they will all re-enter the Earth’s atmosphere like Tiangong I.

There are two types of re-entries: controlled re-entry and uncontrolled re-entry.

Some satellites and manned spacecraft come back to the Earth in a controlled re-entry. Experts calculate (計(jì)算) the path of the falling spacecraft and its speed. Thy can guide the spacecraft to fall in a chosen area.

Some spacecraft may have problems while in space after a certain amount of time. These spacecraft come back in an uncontrolled re-entry. It is hard to tell when and where these spacecraft will fall until the last few hours. The US space station Skylab came back partially uncontrolled in 1979. Parts of the station fell in western Australia, but no one was hurt.

During re-entry, most of the spacecraft will burn up while passing through the Earth’s atmosphere. Only a small amount of the debris will reach the ground. The debris typically ends up falling into the ocean, China Daily reported.

On March2, at a press conference(記者發(fā)布會(huì)), interpreter((翻譯) Yao Mengyao caught the attention of many people with her quick reaction and correct translation.

Like Yao, Zhang Lu is an interpreter for Chinas top leaders, including Premier(總理)Li Keqiang and former premier Wen Jiabao. Nine years ago, her wonderful translations of ancient poems cited(引用) by Premier Wen won praise.

At the press conference during the two sessions(兩會(huì))of 2010, Wen cited a sentence from the poem Li Sao to show his determination(決心) to deal with the problems in the governments work. With amazing skills, Zhang Interpreted the sentence quite accurately(精準(zhǔn)地).

So how do interpreters reach their top positions?

The reason for their success is largely hard work. Besides when they go out on visits with Chinese leaders. the interpreters follow a very strict timetable. Every day they trained themselves by listening to foreign media such as BBC, VOA or CNN through TV or radio.

A month before the two sessions, the interpreters get notice of the spokespersons they are going to translate for. They then make full use of this month to get everything ready. They try to predict(預(yù)測(cè)) the questions that might be asked and think about the words and phrases the spokespersons might use when they answer the questions.

In truth, there is no secret to their success. It's all a matter of skill and hard work.
