问题 What’s the main idea of the news item? [br]  
(27)Liftoff of the space shuttle Discovery has been delayed until July at the earliest. A launch was originally planned in May.(28)NASA scientists are concerned about the possibility of ice chunks falling off the shuttle’s fuel tank. Such an incident could cause the same kind of catastrophe that led to the demise of the space shuttle Columbia and its crew more than two years ago, as the shuttle was reentering the earth’s atmosphere. Engineers are working on making a necessary adjustment to eliminate the danger.

选项 A、The space shuttle can’t reenter the earth’s atmosphere.
B、The space shuttle and its crew demised.
C、The fuel tank leaks oil.
D、There’s the possibility that ice chunks might fall off the shuttle’s fuel tank.

答案 D

解析 本题考查对新闻细节的捕捉。根据句(28)可知,美国国家航空和宇宙航行局的科学家们担心的是有冰块掉入飞船的燃料箱。这有可能引发大灾难,因此飞船的发射时间推迟了。由此可知D为正确答案。
