For exampl

35、e at many public exhibitions about Energy, SPS is not even mentioned. This is mainly because very little funding has been spent on SPS research to date - about 1/1000 of 1% of the approximately US$1 trillion that governments have spent subsidizing补助the development of nuclear power over the past 50 y

36、ears.There are critics who claim that SPS is unrealistic - because launch costs are much too high today; or because microwave beams will set fire to cities; or because its too futuristic未来的.

39、hoose the direction in which our civilization develops. And choices that are made in the coming decades - such as the energy sources that we will or will not use - will have major, long-term implications for human life on Earth.

40、nvironmentally and economically attractive, SPS will open the door to a much more attractive future for human civilization than any ground-based energy source; and one that the public will support; and that young people will find challenging and exciting. Furthermore energy from SPS can be readily u

41、sed in developing countries, as the SPS 2000 project will demonstrate, thereby aiding economic development world-wide. In addition, by creating large commercial revenues for space engineering, SPS will open the frontier of space to economic development, thereby creating a limitless new field for gro

46、y are 14 months-old have much larger vocabularies when they start school than those who dont, US researchers said on Thursday.They said babies with wealthier, better-educated parents tend to gesture more and this may help explain why some children from low-income families fare less well in school.Wh

47、en children enter school, there is a large socioeconomic gap in their vocabularies, said the University of Chicagos Meredith Rowe, whose study appears in the journal Science. Gestures could help explain the difference, Rowe told the American Association for the Advancement of Science annual meeting

48、in The researchers filmed 50 Chicago-area children and parents from diverse economic backgrounds and counted the number of gestures, such as pointing at a picture. The team found that 14-month-olds from high-income, well-educated families used gesture to convey an average of 24 different meanings du

49、ring each 90-minute session, compared with 13 meanings conveyed by children from lower-income families. When the same children entered school at age four and a half, those from higher-income families had better vocabulary scores on standardized tests.At 14 months, an age when there arent even socioe

50、conomic differences in their talk yet, we see there are differences in their gestures, Rowe said. The videos revealed that parents from wealthier families gestured more with their children than the other parents.
