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 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.

Have you ever wondered why so many apps are free to use After all, they cost money to run. Well, instead of paying with money, you’re paying by sharing your personal data (资料). Then, businesses buy and use the data so that they can show you targeted ads (定向广告).
What happens to personal information online Many free apps get paid by businesses who want to know about the users of the apps. What a business wants is the exact information about panies called “data brokers” collect your data—everything from your name, location and education level to the topics you search for, the websites you visit and the people you follow—and sell them to other brokers and businesses.

If an app asks for something like your location, consider saying “No” first. Many apps also have privacy settings (隐私设置), which you can manage to increase your privacy.
In short, information about you is very valuable. Try to protect it.

Dear Andrew,
I’m sorry to hear that you are not feeling well these days. You told me in your last email that you always caught a cold and often felt tired. Here’s some advice for you.
First, it’s good for you to eat more fruit and vegetables. They have vitamins in them and vitamins can help protect you from a bad cold. Second, make sure you get enough sleep. Sleep is pretty important for you especially when you have a cold. Third, if you begin to feel a little better, you can take some exercise, such as going for a run or riding a bike. Last but not least, remember to put on more clothes to help you keep warm when the weather becomes cold. This will stop the cold from getting worse.
I hope my advice can work well for you and wish you get better soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
