Think & Share

Before the disaster people felt optimistic and excited. And after the disaster people felt shocked and terrified.
The evidence is that the world went into shock, most people having assumed that this space flight would be no more dangerous than travelling in an aeroplane. Instantaneously, excitement and optimism tuned into terror and failure. It was the most disastrous space accident ever, and it cast a shadow on people’s hearts.

In my view, humans are intelligent creatures, and therefore have a natural tendency to explore the unknown. Through the exploration of the universe, we can better understand the universe, understand the evolution of the universe, formation and so on.
The evolution of the whole universe is a complete physical book, which is worth exploring and studying by human beings.
Language appreciation 1
1. Millions watched that first lunar landing on black and white TV sets, their hearts in their mouths, aware of how arduous and hazardous undertaking it was. [句式分析] “aware of how arduous and hazardous undertaking it was”作伴随状语,相当于承接性的并列句:and were aware of how arduous and hazardous undertaking it was. 其中“how arduous and hazardous undertaking it was”为感叹句充当aware of的宾语。
