10、ccurred along the New Jersey shoreline in the summer of 1916.

17、dlife.3、 Why should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often aske
18、d.Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup (基因构成) as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments?

23、iverse was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human beings to survive.
