very fast. It’s easy
to get a ticket. It’s also
clean and comfortable.
You can travel to almost
any places with a very
short time.

Meanwhile,you should try to
understand its Chinese meanings.
Let’s read the passages and pay attention to the sense of groups.
Space technology is closely related to our everyday lives. This is one of the benefits of our space exploration programmes. The Space Station Of China has played an important role and designed many products, such as special cooling waistcoats designed with advanced spacesuit technology. Nurses and doctors can wear such anti-virus uniforms and don’t have to suffer from high temperatures. The development of spacesuits has wider use in other fields.
Other technologies developed for space exploration are now a feature of modern life. For example, digital cameras in the 1960s later were developed into consumer products.
Satellite telecommunication has provided more than 100 kinds of services to human beings and thereby has improved such areas as phone messages, data transmission, televised education, mobile telecommunications, rescue operations and medical data sharing.
航天技术与我们的日常生活密切相关。这是我国太空探索项目的成果之一。中国空间站在设计众多产品方面发挥了重要作用,如采用先进航天服装技术设计的特殊冷却背心,医护人员可以穿着这种抗病毒制服,不必遭受高温。宇航服的开发在其他领域有着广泛的应用。
为太空探索开发的其他技术现在已成为日常生活的一部分。例如,20世纪60年代的数码相机后来被开发成消费产品。卫星通信为人类提供了100多种服务,从而改善了电话信息、数据传输、远程教育、移动通信、救援行动和医疗数据共享等领域。
Now you’ll be given two minutes to read the
Chinese translations of the passages.
You can discuss with your classmates.
