And the money spent on space exploration can be used to solve the earth’s problems such as starvation and pollution.On the other hand，70% think space is worth exploring because we have benefited a lot from it，such as using satellites for communication and weather forecast. What’s more，with further space research，we may solve the population problem by moving to other planets one day. Also，space research will enable us to find new sources to solve the problem of energy shortages on the earth.As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space.

People are so preoccupied with struggling for money that they have no time or would not take the time to form or maintain friendship. What happiness can they feel living as lonely miserable creatures without love or friends in the world even if they accumulate tremendous wealth?In my opinion, people can’t do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will add to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy. In a word,you should have money spent for more people. Only then can money be the source of your happiness.Step 8 Homework4 students in a group, one acts Roderick, one Oliver, one servant and the fourth one acts Henry Adams, then listen to the tape, pay more attention to the difference between American English and British English in pronunciation, stress, tone.

人教版高中地理必修2北京的自行车是多了还是少了精品教案
提问：城市环境污染源主要有哪些？有些同学基本同意自行车多是加剧南京空气污染的间接原因，你同意他们的观点吗？在学生回答的基础上，教师进行归纳小结：工业和交通是城市环境的主要污染源。而自行车是一种绿色交通工具，既环保又经济。只有当它在某些机动车和非机动车不分的地段，影响车辆行驶速度的时候，它才可能成为加剧空气污染的间接原因。问：那我们针对交通工具对环境造成的影响，有什么解决方法吗？归纳小结：? 实施减少汽车尾气污染的技术措施? 加强道路绿化? 合理规划城市道路，提高车速? 制定相关法规严禁各种车辆违规鸣喇叭? 在噪音严重的地区设置先进的隔音设施总结：通过前面的分析我们知道了自行车过多并不是造成北京交通拥挤的主要原因，但自行车多并且不遵守交通规则的确是造成交通拥堵的一个原因。从这方面来讲，在一些混合车道地段，自行车是造成空气污染加剧的间接原因。那么在北京到底是应该鼓励自行车的发展还是限制自行车的发展呢？
