   What's a spacewalk? Any time an astronaut gets out of a spacecraft(航天器) while in space, it is called a spacewalk. Astronautsgo on spacewalks for many reasons. For example, experiments can be placed on theoutside of a spacecraft. This lets scientists learn how being in space affects(影响) different things. By going on spacewalks, astronauts can also fix thingsinstead of bringing them back to the earth to fix.

   When astronautsgo on spacewalks, they wear spacesuits to keep themselves safe. Inside spacesuits,astronauts have the oxygen(氧气) they needto breathe and the water they need to drink. To keep the astronauts and the spacecraftsafe, the astronauts must leave and go back to the spacecraft through a specialdoor. When on a spacewalk, astronauts use safety tethers to stay close to theirspacecraft. 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. SAFERis worn like a backpack. It helps an astronaut move around in space.

   How doastronauts train for spacewalks? One way is by going for a swim. Floating in spaceis a lot like floating in water. Astronauts practice spacewalks underwater in ahuge special swimming pool. For every one hour they will spend on a spacewalk, astronautsneed to train seven hours in the pool. Another way astronauts practice for a spacewalkis by using virtual reality(虚拟现实). It looksand feels just like a spacewalk.

   Today,only three countries have finished spacewalks independently. They are Russia, theUnited States and China. The first person to go on a spacewalk in the world wasAlexei Leonov from Russia. Zhai Zhigang is the first Chinese astronaut to go ona spacewalk. The world record of spacewalks is held by Russian astronaut AnatolySolovyev. He has been on 16 spacewalks and spent more than 82 hours outside in space.

With a history of more than 1,000 years in China,the oil﹣paper umbrella used to be a tool to keep out the rain for the Chinese. It's so named because the umbrella's surface is made of paper brushed with tung oil(桐油). 

Although the oil﹣paper umbrella is now no longer commonly used for rainy days,it has never disappeared from people's lives. For example,it is still a symbol of romance in many places. For the Yao people living in the southwest China,an oil﹣paper umbrella plays an important role during a marriage proposal(求婚). When a Yao man's relative visits a Yao woman's family to propose marriage,the relative will bring a red oil﹣paper umbrella. If the woman accepts the proposal,she will take the umbrella and hang 12 small cloth bags on the umbrella's ribs(伞架). Then the relative will return the umbrella to the man to tell the good news. 

The oil﹣paper umbrella made in Fenshui,a town in Luzhou,Sichuan Province is world﹣famous. To make the umbrella,a craftsperson must complete more than 70 steps. It takes about half a month to make an oil﹣paper. The umbrella is both beautiful and durable(耐用的). It can be opened and closed at least 3,000 times. Its surface won't divide from ribs even if the umbrella is put in water for 24 hour. 

Bi Liufu,a native of Fenshuiling,another town in Luzhou,has been creating oil﹣paper umbrellas for more than 40 years. He has won many prizes in national and international craft competitions. For Bi,making umbrellas is a lifelong goal rather than a way to make a living.
