Flat Earth

For question 1.

In this picture, I can see the flat surface is sphered by the ball-like substance. Some people said that the photographic evidence from space is due to the ball-like substance. The substance cover the whole flat land. The sun and the moon are both covered too. And also why there's seas on the earth is also because of the blue substance.When persons arrived the rim of the circle and flat land, the just sail on the substance which other people called the sea. The ball-like substance is translucent so that people could see the planet in the space.

We can see this picture is very exaggerated. A mammoth turtle shouldering three elephants with a flat earth.That's the way how the author give people a deep impression. Some of the people who still believe that the earth is flat said there's no edge of the earth. I also could see the different part of the earth, such as the sea and the land. Some of the people also said that why people could met the same place if they go straight all the time is just a illusion. Persons never go one direction.

For question 2.

1.If the earth isn't flat, how could we stand on the earth, people said that is because of gravitation,but what is that?

2.If the earth isn't flat, the water could not hold on on the earth.

3.We can see the the Milky Way system is flat, the earth shoul be like the galaxies. The earth is the centre, and the sun and other things.

4.The horizon is straight in sight. Seeing is believing.

5.If the earth isn't flat, what about the ruler, how could it be a plane.

For question 3.
NO, I don't think. The seek of the earth and the universe will not be false even if human beings make some mistakes. The seek is just a process, no body know what is the world and what it is like, so anything is better than nothing. Technology nowdays is just to try to know more and more, further and further.

Lym Wei

_____________Exploration is important for countries

___From 1500s until now, from the earth to the space, human beings have never stop exploring. In the 500 years, a lot of countries got a big progress. Some of them have become the most important countries all over the world , such as Britain, America and others.

___Exploration gave them the chance to develop them and it's important for disseminating cultures, goods trade and technologies. Exploration is important for disseminating cultures, which have the effects on people's mind. In 16th century, many explorers from Europe went to explore. Many places--which were unknown that time, were found time by time. The cultures of every country were taken to these places. And then, the cultures affected these places. The cultures which made these places better and better, as the languages, customs and the others, disseminated farther and farther, further and further. Their dissimilar cultures were associated together and could be complementary. So, the cultures got a very faster development by the exploration that time.

___In the old, goods trade could only be in a small area, but after the exploration, goods trade could became much more father. The explorers went to find the new ways to the other countries. That made people easily to exchange their goods, as the time became shorter, the risks became fewer. Such as fur trade in 17th, Canada was the fur trade centre. People from all over the world came to Canada to get the goods that they didn't have. These were all due to the exploration. The exploration opened up many new ways for goods trade. And then, goods trade could cover all over the world and until now.

___By the exploration, the world develops faster and faster in the elapsed centuries. The most important factor is technology. The technology changes the world and the exploration changes the technology. When the explorers went to other countries, they took an exchange with the native people. They saw the things that they hadn't seen and learned how to do or how to make it. When they got back, they could teach the other people. Soon, the technology became widespread. They exploration helped people to know and learn more, and then, develop their technology. They countries become better and they would be then. So, exploration is so important for technology.

___No matter why or when, exploration will not be done from now to the future. That's so important for countries. Without the exploration, the world would not develop so fast, as the exploration could improve the technology, cultures, wealth and others. Exploration makes the world better and better. So, exploration should always be held.
