问题 The satellite might land in the following countries EXCEPT______. [br]  
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、Leaving it where it is.
B、Informing a local law enforcement agency.
C、Fleeing away to ensure security.
D、Dumping it where you like.

答案 B

解析 本题设题点在方法措施处。根据句(9)可知,普通民众如果发现卫星残骸,要及时告知当地执法部门,故答案为[B]。
