托福寫作素材模板：太空旅游

　　素材段落

　　Space exploration is an expensive area for government to invest money in. There would beunimaginable fuel costs and technological challenges associated with starting a space project. Even though the public has raised doubts about the rationality of space exploration, the benefits of going somewhere few people have ever gone before are significant. One cited benefit is that the exploration of the unknown world would encourage students to pursue STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) careers. It is difficult to accurately calculate the number of students who have been inspired by space travel and then decided to start related careers. When questioned about their original career inspirations, many famous scientists acknowledge that they were fascinated by the stars ever since they were children. Obviously, the adventure of infinite space has stimulatedmany children’s dreams and supported their future.
