问题 The author refers to the ocean bottom as a "frontier" in Paragraph 1 because it ______. [br] Which of the following is true of the Glomar Challenger?
选项 A、It is a type of submarine.
B、It is an ongoing project.
C、It has gone on over 100 voyages.
D、It made its first DSDP voyage in 1968.
答案 D
解析 由题干中的the Glomar Challenger定位到原文第二段第二句Using techniques first developed for the offshore oil and gas industry，the DSDP’s drill ship，the Glomar Challenger，was able to maintain a steady position on the ocean’s surface and drill in very deep waters extracting samples of sediments and rock from the ocean floor．[精析] 推理判断题[考频：66]。原文第二段讲述了对海底进行第一次探索的情况。对海底首次进行探索始于 1968年的深海钻井工程，而在这一工程中发挥了主要作用的正是Glomar Challenger，它能在海平面上保持稳定并且能够钻入深水中，从而抽取样本。故D)正确。[避错] 将题干中的每一项都一一与第二段的内容对号入座。A)“它是一个潜水艇”，文中说它是drill ship(钻井船)，故排除A)；B)“它是一个正在进行的项目”，由原文可知它能钻入深水中，所以应是某种器械或工具，排除 B)，另外此处也不符合下段首句内容The Glomar Challenger completed 96 voyages in a 15-year research program that ended in November 1983；由第三段首句得知，Gloman挑战号完成96次航行，而不是“100多次”，故C)数字不符合，排除C)
