But how do satellites stay up without Falling down?There are two opposite forces acting on the satellite. One of them is the force of gravitati

26、on(地心引力), which tries to pull the satellite toward the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋轉(zhuǎn))of the satellite around the earth.

27、s like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth.

For this reason, it is always a good idea to be polite and cautious when writing e-mails or messages to your friends.Chinese can be a direct lang

32、uage, but in English, people often talk about a subject in another way. So instead of saying “Please meet me here” or “Do this for me now”, English speakers usually go for indirect phrases like “Would it be possible”, “if you have time” or “It would mean a lot to me if”If you have a close friend, yo

33、u may still run into trouble because of your jokes. If you have asked someone to do something and they need a bit more time, you might joke with him: “What? You still havent done it yet?

When the children give it a push and jump in for their first ride， smiles of wonder appears on their

44、faces.The fun of going round and round in a circle is just part of the wonder. The wonderful invention doesnt only change the kids play time， but also makes a big difference to the peoples lives.As the merry-go-round starts，itpumps(泵送）clean water up from deep underground and keeps it in a huge tank(

45、桶）. People are welcomed to come and help themselves to get the water for free. They are very happy these days.In the countryside of Africa， very few people could drink clean water. They dont have machines that can get water in their homes. Instead， they often walk a long way to carry water back.Patr

46、icia Molope， a fifteen-year-old girl， explains that before her village in South Africa got a PlayPump， people would pay a taxi driver to take them to a well far from their homes. “ Sometimes the taxi drivers were so busy that we would have to stop taking showers in order to save water. It was so far

47、 to walk there， but at present we have our own clean water in the village， and the life is better， too.”The hard job of carrying water usually is done by women and girls. Carrying water for miles and hours each day is such a heavy job that it sometimes prevents girls from being able to go to school.

48、Thanks to the PlayPump， getting water is quicker and easier-and even boys join in. The pumps have become a new activity. Kids and adults seem to love playing with them while collecting water.A boy named Khumalo， twelve years old， says， “ I have seen many kinds of water pumps， but have never seen one
