( 4 ) After how many years did he publish his new theory? ( 5) why did he publish it so late?After 29years he published it as he lay dying.His theory was against Gods idea, and the powerful Christian Church would have punished him if he put forward such an idea. As a scientist, one should be brave. But Copernicus was afraid of being attacked by the Christian Church. So he had hidden his theory for so many years. What do you think of this? Agree:1.He was cautious. if he had published his ideas, he would have been killed just as Bruno who was burned to death because his theory was against the Christian Church.2.Every time when a new idea appears, there are always rejections. Its normal. Scientists should have patience to spread their truth.3.It made no sense for him to publish his theory in a hurry.He was just cautious not coward. He should protect himself first. Disagree:1.Copernicus was very coward. He should speak out his discovery and let the world know the truth earlier.2.Science can never advance unless people have the courage of their beliefs.3.As a scientist, you must have the courage to publish your findings.

Yours, Li Hua Im writing to persuade you to let us surf the Internet in the classroom. We know that we may be exposed to unhealthy website. Actually every coin has two sides. We still think that surfing the Internet can bring us more advantages. First of all, I think it would be better if we could surf the Internet, because there is a wide range of learning resources on the Internet. We should make use of it. Furthermore, we can broaden our horizons by reading various news online. Last but not least, as high school students, we are building up our sense of judgment. Given chances, we are sure that we will learn to stay away from unhealthy websites. I do hope you can take my suggestions into consideration, and make a final decision. Look forward to your reply.
