meteoroids(流星)that race across thenight sky.Most orbit the sun far from Earth and dont threaten us.But there are创 作人：荧多莘日 期：二 O 二二 年 1 月 17 日创 作人：荧多莘日 期：二 O 二二 年 1 月 17 日also thousands whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.Buy$50 million worth of new telescopes right now.Then spend$10million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks.By the timewe spot a fatal one，the scientists say，well have a way to change its course.Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons.But the cost wouldnt be cheap.Is it worth it?Two things experts consider when judging any risk are:1)How likely the event is;and 2)How bad the consequences if the event occurs.Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earthonce every 500，000 years.Sounds pretty rare-but if one did fall，it would be theend of the world.“If we dont take care of these big asteroids，theyll take care ofus，says one scientist.“Its that simple.The cure，though，might be worse than the disease.Do we really want fleetsof nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth?“The world has less to fear fromdoomsday(消灭性的)rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them，said a New York Times article.8.What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids?A.They are heavenly bodies different in composition.创 作人：荧多莘日 期：二 O 二二 年 1 月 17 日创
