Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the
world's energy resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we
also should use them economically and try to find out alternative sources of power. According to
Professor Marvin Burnham of the New England Institude of Technology, we have to start
conserving coal, oil and gas and use nuclear power.
However, many people don't agree to use nuclear power because it is very dangerours.
What would happen if there were a serious nuclear accident? Radioactivity causes cancers and
may badly affect the future generations. The most effective thing we can do now is that we
should use natural resources as economically as possible.

Even though spaceships have traveled to the Moon, people cannot visit the Moon without special
suits. The Moon has no air or water. Plants and animals can’t live there either. Astronauts first
landed on the Moon in 1969. After that, there were six more trips to the Moon. They brought

back Moon rocks, which scientists are still studying. There are holes, or craters, all over the
Moon’s surface. Scientists believe that meteorites smashed into the Moon millions of years ago
and formed the craters.
