Between 1977 and 1981, three groups of American women, numbering 27 in all, between the age of 35 and 65, were given month-long tests to determine how they would respond to conditions resembling those aboard the space shuttle.
Though carefully selected from among many applicants, the women were volunteers and the pay was barely above the minimum wage. They were not allowed to smoke or drink alcohol during the tests, and they were expected to tolerate each others company at close quarters for the entire period. Among other things they had to stand pressure three times the force of gravity and carry out both physical and mental tasks whole exhausted from strenuous physical exercise. At the end of ten days, they had to spend a further twenty days absolutely confined to bed, during which time they suffered backaches and other discomforts, and when they were finally allowed up, the more physically active women were especially subject to pain due to a slight calcium loss.
Results of the tests suggest that women will have significant advantages over man in space. They need less food and less oxygen and they stand up to radiation better. Men’ s advantages in terms of strength and stamina, meanwhile, are virtually wiped out by the zero-gravity condition in space. [br] From the passage we can learn that ______.
选项
A、many women wanted to take part in the tests
B、the pay was important for the women
C、the women often quarreled with each other so they had to tolerate each other.
D、they could drink some wine after work
答案
A
解析
题干意为“从这篇文章,我们可以得到___。”由第二段第一句可知,许多妇女自愿参加这项试验,27人是从中仔细挑选出来的。试验期间她们不允许吸烟、饮酒;报酬相当低;而且要适应群体生活,有忍耐力,故选A。
