Volunteers gave 3 about fighting fires, cooking, managing a restaurant and working for the city.
Mike Suminski, the lineman(线路工人) of the town, gave one of the displays. To let the students know what electricians do, Suminski made a big model of the power grid (电网) of a district. He showed 4 the lines went and walked them through the most common accidents: flying a kite into them.
“No wonder we should only 5 the kites in the park,” one of the students said after he saw a real spark(火花) when the model kite 6 the lines.

Passage 1
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), 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 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 re-entry. Experts calculate 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 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.
11.Some of the debris from Tiangong Ⅰ . ( )
A.fell into the South Pacific Ocean B.fell in western Australia
C.fell in the central part of the US D.fell into the North Pacific Ocean
