16、on conditions and people on Earth？These are questions that，understandably，are very often asked.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？The wider the spread

17、of a species，the better its chance of survival.Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.Nearly every successful civilization has explored，because by doing so，any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for.Without knowledge，

18、we may be completely destroyed by the danger.With knowledge，we can lessen its effects.Exploration also allows minerals and other potential（潜在的）resources to be found.Even if we have no immediate need of them，they will perhaps be useful later.Resources may be more than physical possessions.Knowledge o

19、r techniques have been acquired through exploration.The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives.We have already benefited from other spinoffs including improvements in earthquake prediction，in satellites for weather forecasting and in communicati

21、o save us.While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works，it also holds dangers.The danger exists，but knowledge can help human beings to survive.Without the ability to reach out across space，the chance to save ourselves might not exist.While Earth is

22、 the only planet known to support life，surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets.It is true that the lifestyle would be different，but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.36Why does the author mention the questions in Par

26、id potential problems on Earth.BPeople seldom feel neutral about poetry.Those who love it sometimes give the impression that it is an adequate substitute for food，shelter and love.It isnt.Words，no matter how satisfying，are never an equivalent（相等的东西）for life itself and its human experiences.Those who

27、 dislike poetry on principle sometimes claim，on the other hand，that poetry is only words and good for nothing.Thats not true either.It is easy to become frustrated by words in poetry or in lifebut when words represent and recreate genuine human feelings，as they often do in poetry，they can be very im

28、portant.Poetry is，in fact，more than just words.It is an experience of words，and those who know how to read poetry can easily extend their experience of life，their sense of what other people are like，their awareness of themselves，and their range of human feelings.One reason poetry can be so important

29、 is that it is so closely concerned with feelings.Poetry is often full of ideas，too，and sometimes poems can be powerful experiences of the mind，but most poems are primarily about how people feel rather than how people think.Poems provide，in fact，a language for feeling，and one of poetrys most insiste

30、nt values involves its attempt to express the inexpressible.How can anyone，for example，put into words what it means to be in love or what it feels like to lose someone one cares about？Poetry tries，and it often captures exactly the shade of emotion that feels just right to a reader.No single poem can

31、 be said to express all the things that love or death feels like，or means，but one of the joys of experiencing poetry occurs when we read a poem and want to say，“Yes，that is just what it is like；I know exactly what that line means but Ive never been able to express it so well.” Poetry can be the voic
