答案    The saying that "Not to know is bad; not to wish to know is worse" best illustrates the importance of curiosity, a desire to know, a hunger to explore and a delight to discover. Without curiosity, human beings would never reach the civilization today.
   Curiosity motivates us to uncover the truth about nature and life. It takes a curious mind to look beneath the surface and discover new worlds and possibilities. Were it not for curiosity, Newton would never have developed the law of gravitation, nor would the continents of America or Australia be discovered. Being curious allows us to engage in activities that will stretch the boundaries of our mind and naturally broaden our horizons.
   Fortunately, curiosity is a habit that can be nurtured and developed. To be more specific, we need to approach the world with a child-like habit of asking questions. With practice, we are sure to transform everyday tasks into enjoyable experiences and lay the ground for future discoveries and opportunities.
