A large part of human history is considered with the exploration of the world in which we live. Again and again people have set out with surprising courage and patience to look into unknown regions and lands to see what had not yet been seen, to make the unknown known. With kites, balloons and aircraft they left the ground to pass through the lower atmosphere. Now the outer space receives their attention.Why should man take the trouble of conquering space ? It is hard to list the specific practical benefits that will surely see and discover new things in space that will increase our scientific knowledge, and this new knowledge will find its way into valuable practical uses. What we learn about man himself, from his experience in space, and from the effects of space and the space flight environment n him, will be extremely valuable. The new techniques developed to carry out the exploration of space, and to keep man alive in space, will certainly find practical uses in everyday life in some way. The areas that will benefits are manifold. They include communication, generation of power, transportation and travel, food production, materials, fuels and many others. But to say definitely just what the practical results will be is almost impossible.1. The main idea of the first paragraph is that _.A. man desire to explore what is unknownB. man often goes wherever his dreams goC. man is no longer interested in the study of the land and sea nowD. mans history is his exploration of the world2.

In the last sentence of Paragraph 2 the phrase “practical result” refers to the results _.A. that are obtained from experienceB. that can be learned as knowledgeC. that can be made use ofD. helping us make further exploration.四. 短文改错My hometown is a pretty city, so people there are 1. _kind and polite.
