13、一天會枯竭，尋求首先，人類居住的地球的能源總歸有一天會枯竭，尋求新能源，是人類面臨的一重大科研課題。月球作為地球最新能源，是人類面臨的一重大科研課題。月球作為地球最忠實的衛(wèi)星，是人類未來賴以生存的能源倉庫，它上面的忠實的衛(wèi)星，是人類未來賴以生存的能源倉庫，它上面的玄武巖里鈦鐵礦的體積占，鈦大概有萬億噸玄武巖里鈦鐵礦的體積占，鈦大概有萬億噸以上，將來人類能直接用這種玄武巖生產(chǎn)水、液氧燃料等以上，將來人類能直接用這種玄武巖生產(chǎn)水、液氧燃料等資源。月球上還有豐富的礦產(chǎn)資源，象地球上稀缺的鈾、資源。月球上還有豐富的礦產(chǎn)資源，象地球上稀缺的鈾、稀土等稀土等 ，特別是月球土壤中特有的氦，特別是月球土壤中特

14、有的氦作為核聚變的作為核聚變的原材料，將改變人類社會的能源結構，將成為人類未來取原材料，將改變人類社會的能源結構，將成為人類未來取之不竭的能源寶庫，月球表面土壤中蘊藏著幾百萬噸的氦之不竭的能源寶庫，月球表面土壤中蘊藏著幾百萬噸的氦3，1噸的氦噸的氦3所產(chǎn)生的電量足以供全人類使用所產(chǎn)生的電量足以供全人類使用1年年月球潛在的礦產(chǎn)資源和能源的開發(fā)利用前景，是主月球潛在的礦產(chǎn)資源和能源的開發(fā)利用前景，是主要航天國家組織探月登月的最主要的動力。要航天國家組織探月登月的最主要的動力。 .第二、月球表面具有高真空、無磁場、地質構第二、月球表面具有高真空、無磁場、地質構造穩(wěn)定、弱重力和高潔凈的環(huán)境，可以進行生

15、造穩(wěn)定、弱重力和高潔凈的環(huán)境，可以進行生物制品和新材料的開發(fā)研究；月球背面不受地物制品和新材料的開發(fā)研究；月球背面不受地球無線電波干擾，可以建立月球天文觀測基地、球無線電波干擾，可以建立月球天文觀測基地、實驗室，把月球建成人類探求宇宙星空的前沿實驗室，把月球建成人類探求宇宙星空的前沿哨所?？傊?，月球是人類研究月球科學、天體哨所?？傊?，月球是人類研究月球科學、天體化學、空間物理、生命科學、對地觀測科學與化學、空間物理、生命科學、對地觀測科學與材料科學的理想場所材料科學的理想場所.第三，人類探月登月引發(fā)的一系列技術革命和進第三，人類探月登月引發(fā)的一系列技術革命和進步，成為社會、經(jīng)濟發(fā)展的新技術支撐

16、，帶動和步，成為社會、經(jīng)濟發(fā)展的新技術支撐，帶動和促進了一系列基礎科學、科學技術的創(chuàng)新和發(fā)展，促進了一系列基礎科學、科學技術的創(chuàng)新和發(fā)展，形成了一大批高科技工業(yè)群體，產(chǎn)生了顯著的社形成了一大批高科技工業(yè)群體，產(chǎn)生了顯著的社會經(jīng)濟效益。當年美國會經(jīng)濟效益。當年美國“阿波羅阿波羅”登月工程耗資登月工程耗資是巨大的，達億美元，但它在無線電制導、是巨大的，達億美元，但它在無線電制導、合成材料、高性能計算機等高科技方面創(chuàng)造出合成材料、高性能計算機等高科技方面創(chuàng)造出多項新技術，從經(jīng)濟效益方面評估，多項新技術，從經(jīng)濟效益方面評估，“阿阿波羅波羅”登月工程每投入美元就能產(chǎn)出了到登月工程每投入美元就能產(chǎn)出了到美

17、元的效益，這說明人類探月登月的經(jīng)濟效益是美元的效益，這說明人類探月登月的經(jīng)濟效益是巨大的，無法估量的。巨大的，無法估量的。.Read the text and fill in the blanks with the right words. Neil Armstrong is the first man to walk on the moon.
