【答案】
Dear Jim,
I’m glad to share with you about my strong interest in moon exploration.
It started with what I had been told about the moon as a kid. In Chinese culture, the moon is a symbol of beauty and purity. Also, it reminds people of their family and friends far away.
Humans have never stopped exploring our closest neighbor, which I believe is of great significance. The development of relevant technology promotes the progress of science in general, which benefits our everyday life. What’s more, I think moon exploration shows an important human trait — curiosity about the unknown, which is the driving force that has brought our humans this far.
What do you usually think about when you gaze at the moon?
Yours,
Li Hua

【答案】Is exploring space a waste of time and money?
Some people have expressed doubts about space exploration. They argue that we should find solutions to other more practical problems, such as pollution and fatal diseases, instead of exploring space.
As far as I’m concerned, despite the huge risk and tremendous cost, the desire to explore the universe never dies due to the fact that space exploration has already made a huge difference to our world. Firstly, space exploration can increase our knowledge and drive innovation in numerous fields, such as farming techniques, food production and the creation of new medicines, which may help to improve our life. Additionally, humans are currently restricted to a single planet and should something happen that changes the environment of the planet, the entire human race would be in danger of being wiping out. Thus, space exploration provides us with hope for the future.
