Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids（流星体） that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and dont threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth. Buy $500 million worth of new telescopes right now, they spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, well have a way to change its course. Is it worth it？ Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: （1） How likely the event is; （2） How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall. It would be the end of the world. “If we dont take care of these big asteroids, theyll take care of us,” says one scientist. “Its that simple. ”The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets（队，车队） of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth？ “The world has less fear from doomsday rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” said a New York Times article.8 .

What do scientists say about the collision, of an asteroid with Earth？AIt is very unlikely but the danger exists.BSuch a collision might occur once every 25 years.CCollisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected.DIts still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.10 . What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the course of asteroids？AIt sounds practical but it may not solve the problem.BIt may create more problems than it might solve.CIt is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.DFurther research should be done before it is proved applicable.11 . We can conclude from the passage thatAwhile pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world.Basteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future.Cthe worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime.Dworkable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth.12 .
