Answer

Outer Space Exploration, YES or NO?

The other day at a class meeting we had an argument over whether it was necessary to carry out outer space exploration.

Some of us held it important to research outer space because, first of all, people can get a better understanding of outer space through their exploration. Second, new resources can be found there for human use. Third, this exploration can possibly bring about new living space for human life.

However, others thought very differently. They said this kind of exploration is much too costly. Besides, it is very dangerous for astronauts to do such work.

In my opinion, people should be pioneering(先驱的；开创的)and therefore such exploration of outer space is worth trying out.
