Using an improved symplectic algorithm, the orbital evolutions of 86 NEAs for a time span of 1000-10,000 yrs are computed and some important results are presented. The orbits of asteroid nos. 3552 and 4015 found to be unstable and the minimal distance between the asteroid no. 4660 and the Earth is found to be close to 0.0018 au, which is less than the mean distance between the moon and the Earth.
