  205. The space shuttle航天天飞机 spacecraft-spectator
There was an engineer who specialized1 in designing spacecraft. It was his job to meet specifications3 specified4 by NASA. He was involved in the design of the space shuttle, a spaceship specifically designed to be spared and reused. One of the requirements was that the space shuttle was to be spacious5 enough to do experiments inside, yet material was to be used sparingly so as not to weighit down. One of the experiments to be performed was that of the spawning7 of a bird in the weightlessness of space. The specimen8 used the first time was that of a sparrow. In the future, NASA would specify9 what species other than birds would follow.
On the day of the lift-off, many spectators gathered to watch the spectacle. As the engineer stood there and saw the great span of the space shuttle, his heart was filled with pride. As the flag was being raised, the band started playing the Star Spangled Banner, the national anthem10. Then a spark came from the bottom of the rocket boosters, and a great explosion of flames emitted. The scene was spectacular. The shuttle lifted off the launch pad and headed for the sky. All the while, the engineer was choking with tears. The crowd watched the shuttle ascend11 until it was just a speck12. One of the onlookers13 said, “Spanking14 good show.” The engineer continued watching the heavensas the crowd became sparse15. When every one had gone, he went home, too.
