IV. Further reading Man has been fascinated by outer space for thousands of years. It has been over 40 years since we first landed on the moon. Some people believe that space exploration (探索) is a waste of time and money. They point out the fact that it will cost billions of dollars to carry out this research with little to show for it. However, there is another side to this argument. There are still many people who believe that space exploration has plenty of advantages. And I agree with those people. For example, weather and communications satellites are the result of breakthroughs in space exploration. They've benefited the entire world. We've also learned a lot about space itself. I think there are still many things to discover that we can't even begin to imagine. Space exploration is a big challenge. That's why we all need to work together to make it happen.
1. What are the two different opinions towards space exploration? Some think it is a waste of time and money, while others think it has benefited people all over the world.
2. What’s your opinion towards space exploration?
