 she was often late for school, the teacher very angry.

    On April 2, we said goodbye to Tiangong I, China's first space lab. According to the China Manned Space Agency (中国载人航天工程办公室), Tiangong I re-entered the Earth's atmosphere (大气层) and some of its debris (碎片) fell into the South Pacific Ocean.

    There are many spacecraft (宇宙飞船) that are still in orbit (轨道) 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 reentry. Experts calculate (计算) the path of the falling spacecraft and its speed. They 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 reentry, 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.

    My father was German, but he worked in England. He married my mother, who was English. Her family name was Robinson, so when I was born in England, they called me Robinson, after her.

    My father did well in his business and I went to a good school. He wanted me to get a good job, and live a quiet, pleasant life. But I wanted adventure and an exciting life.

    "I want to be a sailor and go to sea," I told my mother and father. They were very unhappy about this.

    "Please don't go," my father said. "You won't be happy you know. Sailors have a difficult and dangerous life. "Because I love him, and he was unhappy, I tried to forget about the sea.

    But I couldn't forget, and about a year later, I saw a friend in town. His father had a ship and my friend said to me, "We are sailing to London tomorrow. Why don't you come with us?"

    On September 1st, 1651, I went to Hull. And the next day we sailed for London.

    But, a few days later, there was a strong wind. The sea was rough and dangerous, and the ship went up and down, up and down. I was very ill, and was very afraid. "Oh, I don't want to die!" I cried. "I want to live! If I live, I will go home and never go to sea again!"

    The next day the wind stopped, and the sea was quiet and beautiful again.

    "Well, Robinson," my friend laughed, "how do you feel now? The wind wasn't too bad."

    "What!" I cried. "It was a terrible storm!"

    "Oh, that wasn't a storm," my friend answered, "just a little wind. Forget it, come and have a drink."

    After a few drinks with my friend, I felt better. I forgot about the danger, and decided not to go home. I didn't want my friend to laugh at me!

    I stayed in London for some time, but I still, wanted to go to the sea. So, when the captain (船长) of a ship asked me to go with him to Guinea in Africa, I agreed. And so I went to the sea for the second time.

    It was a good ship, and everything went well at first, but I was very ill again. Then when we were near the Canary Islands, a Turkish pirate (海盗) ship came after us. They were famous thieves of the sea at that time. There was a long, hard fight, but when it finished, we and the ship were prisoners. The Turkish captain and his men took us to Sale in Morocco. They wanted to sell us as slaves (奴隶) in the market. But in the end, the Turkish captain decided to keep me for himself, and took me home with him. This was a sudden and terrible change in my life. This Turkish captain was now my master.

    The Silk Road is a historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean (地中海). It began during the Western Han Dynasty and has been a bridge between East (A) _________West for over 2,000 years.

    The ancient road started from Chang'an (now Xi'an) and ended in Eastern Europe, near today's Turkey and the Mediterranean Sea. (B) It was about 6,500 kilometers long and went across one-fourth of the planet.

    The Silk Road got its name in the 19th century because Chinese silk used to be carried (C) _________this road. Silk, jade, ceramics and iron went west to Rome. And from the west came glass, gems and food (D) like carrots.

     (E) The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world. It was more than an ancient international trade route. (F) Besides trade, knowledge about arts, science and literature, as well as crafts and technologies was shared across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures developed and influenced each other.

    Today, China is trying to build the "21st Century Maritime (海洋的) Silk Road". With the help of APEC held in Beijing in November 2014, the dream of One Belt One Road (the "Silk Road Economic Belt" and the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road") ("一带一路") is coming true.
