What's a spacewalk？ Any time an astronaut gets out of a spacecraft（航天器） while in space， it is called a spacewalk． Astronauts go on spacewalks for many reasons． For example， experiments can be placed on the outside of a spacecraft． This lets scientists learn how being in space affects（ 影响） different things． By going on spacewalks， astronauts can also fix things instead of bringing them back to the earth to fix．
When astronauts go on spacewalks， they wear spacesuits to keep themselves safe． Inside spacesuits， astronauts have the oxygen（氧气） they need to breathe and the water they need to drink． To keep the astronauts and the spacecraft safe， the astronauts must leave and go back to the spacecraft through a special door． When on a spacewalk， astronauts use safety tethers to stay close to their spacecraft． Tethers are like ropes， connect the spacewalkers with the spacecraft． They keep astronauts from floating（ 漂 浮 ） away into space． Another way astronauts stay safe during spacewalks is by wearing a SAFER． SAFER is worn like a backpack． It helps an astronaut move around in space．
How do astronauts train for spacewalks？ One way is by going for a swim． Floating in space is a lot like floating in water． Astronauts practice spacewalks underwater in a huge special swimming pool． For every one hour they will spend on a spacewalk， astronauts need to train seven hours in the pool． Another way astronauts practice for a spacewalk is by using virtual reality（虚拟现实）． It looks and feels just like a spacewalk．
Today， only three countries have finished spacewalks independently． They are Russia， the United States and China． The first person to go on a spacewalk in the world was Alexei Leonov from Russia． Zhai Zhigang is the first Chinese astronaut to go on a spacewalk． The world record of spacewalks is held by Russian astronaut Anatoly Solovyev． He has been on 16 spacewalks and spent more than 82 hours outside in space．

American boys and girls love watching television. Some children spend six hours a day in school and four to six hours a day in front of the television set. Some even watch television for eight hours or more on the weekend.
Televisions are like books or films. A child can learn both bad things and good things from them. Some programs help children to understand the news, and others show people and places from other countries or other time in history.

I spent my last vacation trekking（徒步旅行） in Nepal, a small country in the Himalaya Mountains of Asia. On a trekking vacation, you walk for long distances through the mountains. There are very few roads in Nepal, so trekking is the best way to travel. It's best if you hire（雇佣） a guide（向导）. The guides know the best paths to take and they also help trekkers with their bags. Our guide even cooked our food for us. Every day, we trekked for about four hours before lunch, and about two hours in the afternoon. At the end of the day's trek, we sat around a campfire and talked about the things we saw. Then we went to sleep in large tents. Every morning, our guide brought breakfast to our tent. It was great.
