A pilot cannot fly a plane by sight alone. In many conditions, such as flying at night and landing in dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating. Since human eyes are not very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby planes are moving. The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave. The echo of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave. With radar, however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves. Radio waves travel at the speed of light, about 300, 000 kilometers in one second. A radar set sends out a short burst of radio waves: Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects. By determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can determine the distance between the radar set and other objects. The word "radar," in fact, gets its name from the term "radio detection and ranging." "Ranging" is the term for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set. Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and storms. [br] Which of the following could best replace the word "bounce" underlined in Paragraph 1?
选项
A、Overturn.
B、Groove.
C、Extend.
D、Rebound.
答案
D
解析
词义题型参见第95题注释,Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects. (……然后它(一个雷达装置)接收无线电波遇到物体后______的回声/波);既是回声/波,应是反弹回的;因此选项D“回弹”应为答案。
