The satellite might land in the following countries EXCEPT______.
20 years ago, NASA launched the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite(UARS). And now that bus-sized satellite is plunging toward Earth.
Mark Matney, a scientist at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Texas, says UARS will likely reenter the atmosphere on September 23. He says scientists will be able to narrow the time frame as it gets closer.(8)Everything from Canada down to the tip of South America, and from Siberia down to the tip of Africa and Australia could be where the satellite lands, says Matney. So, it’s quite a bit of land.
(9)NASA officials say people should call their local law enforcement agencies if they find parts of the satellite. Matney cautions that although the pieces are not toxic, they might have sharp edges. Even though it is commonly referred to as space junk, the fragment still belongs to the country that owns the craft, in this case, the United States.
选项
A、Canada
B、South America
C、Ireland
D、Siberia
答案
C
解析
本题设题点在地理位置处。根据句(8)可知,卫星可能的降落范围是从加拿大到南美边界,从西伯利亚到非洲澳洲边界,故排除爱尔兰,故答案为[C]。
