ng humans into space and opening the possibility of flying missions with people to the Moon and even Mars. For its first voyage, it carried Musk39。s $ 100,000 cherryred Tesla sports car and a fake spacesuited human model fixed in the driver39。s seat. Musk joked that “it may be discovered by some future alien race”. Falcon Heavy went into space on its last flight on February 6. The launch took place at NASA39。s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Kennedy Space Center in the US state of Florida, the spot also used for the Apollo 11 Moon mission and several space shuttle launches. It was delayed by several hours because of high winds in the upper atmosphere. Minutes after takeoff, the two outer boosters (助推器) landed at the nearby Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Space X announced plans to eventually use Falcon Heavy to launch two paying space tourists on a trip around the Moon. However, Musk said he will probably reserve that mission for another launch system, the BFR. Recently, Space X scheduled to launch a Falcon 9 rocket for NASA39。s TESS mission on March 20, 2018. It is reported that Space X is scheduled to plete 30 independent launch missions in 2018, at least half of which will use Falcon 9. (1)Which of the following can function as a rocket? A.A 737 jet.B.Tesla.C.Saturn V.D.Space X.(2)What do we know about Falcon Heavy from the text? A.It was the latest rocket in the world.B.It is of the same load as a 737 jet.C.It is to be found by the creatures in the outer space.D.It was launched at the same place for the Apollo 11 mission.(3)What delayed the launch of Falcon Heavy? A.Weather condition.B.Program error.C.Equipment failure.D.Deliberate damage.(4)What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.The BFR will be pleted in 2018.B.The vehicle to launch space tourists is unknown.C.Tourists will be sent into space by Falcon 9.D.Falcon 9 will take 15 launch missions.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)A(4)B 【解析】【分析】這是一篇時文報道類文章。2月6日,伊隆馬斯克的私人航天航空公司Space X成功的發(fā)射了獵鷹號重型航天器,使得它成為世界上最強大的火箭。文章介紹了獵鷹號重型航天器的具體情況。(1)推理判斷題。由第二段中的“Falcon Heavy is the largest rocket since the retirement of NASA39。s Saturn V”可知,F(xiàn)alcon Heavy是Saturn V退役之后的最大的火箭。由此可推知,Saturn V曾經(jīng)是最大的火箭。故C選項正確。(2)細節(jié)理解題。由第四段中的“The launch took place at NASA39。s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Kennedy Space Center in the US state of Florida, the spot also used for the Apollo 11 Moon mission and several space shuttle launches”可知,發(fā)射Falcon Heavy是在佛羅里達州的卡納維拉爾角空軍基地和肯尼迪航天中心。該地也被用來執(zhí)行阿波羅11號的登月任務。結(jié)合選項,D選項正確。(3)細節(jié)理解題。由第四段中的“It was delayed by several hours because of high winds in the upper atmosphere”可知,因為天氣原因?qū)е滤舆t發(fā)射。故A選項正確。(4)推理判斷題。由最后一段中的“Space X announced plans to eventually use Falcon Heavy to launch two paying space tourists on a trip around the Moon. However, Musk said he will probably reserve that mission for another launch system, the BFR”可知,Space X宣布最終使用Falcon Heavy將兩位付費的游客送入太空進行環(huán)月旅游。但是,Musk又說有可能將該任務留給BFR來執(zhí)行。由此可以推知,到底誰來執(zhí)行該任務還不確定。故B選項正確。【點評】閱讀理解推理判斷題解題技巧:推斷題是考查學生透過文章表面的文字信息進行分析、綜合、歸納等邏輯推理的能力。推理和判斷必須以事實為依據(jù),切莫主觀臆斷。①那些文章中直接陳述的內(nèi)容不能選,要選擇根據(jù)文章推理出來的選項。②推理不是憑空猜測,而是立足已知推斷未知;作出正確答案時一定要在文中找到依據(jù)或理由。③要忠實于原文,以文章提供的事實和線索為依據(jù)。不能以自己的觀點代替作者的想法;不要脫離原文主觀臆斷。5.閱讀理解 A fiveyearold dog named Kelsey has been praised as a hero for helping to save the life of her owner who slipped in the snow and broke his neck.
