D It has been more than fifty years since many countries studied space. Armstrong from America first landed on the moon in 1969. SHENZHOU V from China was successfully sent up into space in 2003, and Yang Liwei has been the first Chinese to travel in space. But some people think that space research is a waste of money. Of course this research has been very expensive. Has this money been well spent or wasted? Some people believe that we should stop all or most space research because it not only costs too much money, but also wastes a lot of resources of science and human. These people point out the fact that it cost billions of dollars to send astronauts to the moon, but all they brought back were some worthless stones. These people say that the money now being wasted in space research could be spent on more important things on earth, such as providing housing for homeless people, improving the education, saving the environment and finding medicine for diseases. However, other people believe that space research has provided many benefitsto human beings. They point out that hundreds of useful things, from personal computers to freeze-dried food, are the results of space research. They say that weather and information satellites which are also results of space programs, have brought benefits to people all over the world. The knowledge of science from the sun, the moon, the planets and even our own earth is also a result of space research. We should believe that space research is important and it should not be stopped because of the benefits to human beings. Perhaps in the future it will bring even more benefits, that we can’t even imagine now. Moreover, just as everyone needs challenges to make their lives more interesting, we believe human being itself needs a challenge, and we think that the peaceful exploration of space provides just such a challenge. 根据短文内容选择最佳答案. 16.( ) years has passed since Armstrong first landed on the moon.
