The first private mission outside of earth orbit is closer than many of us think. (5)U.S. government officials outset to approve a mission by privately held space company, Moon Express, to travel outside of earth orbit in late 2017. (6)Moon Express’s mission involves plans to land a suitcase-size package of scientific equipment on the moon for ongoing exploration on commercial development. The decision involved amounts of lobbying and coordinative conversations between a number of federal agencies. On the international treaties, the U.S. is responsible for the cargo of both public and private space craft. This makes commercial space travel a complex legal issue not just domestically but abroad. A Moon Express representative declined to comment on the story, (7)but noted that the company is very optimistic about its proposal. Moon Express is not the only company seeking for the right to travel to outer space. Elon Musk’s Space X aims to send an unmanned aircraft to Mars by 2018.
Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.
5. What is the news report mainly about?
6. What is Moon Express planning to do?
7. What does Moon Express think of its mission?
选项
A、International treaties regarding space travel programs.
B、Legal issues involved in commercial space exploration.
C、U. S. government’ s approval of private space missions.
D、Competition among public and private space companies.
答案
C
解析
浏览四个选项,从选项中的space travel programs,commercial space exploration,U.S.government,private space missions等词可推测,此题与美国的探月计划有关。题干问的是新闻的主要内容是什么。新闻开头提到,首次民间探月计划并非人们想象的那么遥远,美国政府官员批准私人太空公司“月球捷运”于2017年年底执行前往地球轨道之外的任务,新闻接下来的内容还叙述了该公司的具体计划等内容。由此可知,答案为C。A项(关于太空旅行项目的国际条约)和B项(商业太空探索涉及的法律问题)并不是新闻的主旨内容,故排除。D项(公共太空公司和私人太空公司之间的竞争)在新闻中未提及,故排除。
