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 （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 re﹣entry． Experts calculate （计算） the path of the falling spacecraft and its speed． Thy 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．

A． fell into the South Pacific Ocean

When I had something difficult to do, I used to ask my mum for help. But she always said, “Do it yourself, dear.” I was not happy about this at all. I thought she was the laziest mother in the world!
For example, one day, some of my friends would come to my home. My bedroom was really untidy. Books were all over the floor, and I didn’t make the bed. So I asked my mum to help me clean it, but she still said, “Do it yourself, my daughter.”
Because of my “lazy mum”, I have to wash my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents do housework. I even have to go to hospital by myself. It is very hard to do everything well on my own, but I have learnt a lot.
As time goes by, I come to understand my mum. She makes me clever and hard-working. How great she is! A good mother is worth(值得) 100 teachers! Don’t you think so?When you have something difficult to do, you should .

Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford（买得起）these things. But I don’t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although（尽管）China is rich in some resources (资源), we are short of (缺乏) others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent（阻止）waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps (水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.Which is not mentioned（提及）in this passage?
| A．Fresh water. | B．Forest. |
| C．Oil. | D．Coal. |
What may happen in 100 years?
| A．We may still have enough oil. |
| B．We may still have enough coal. |

Which is the best title of this passage?
