一、这是一篇说明文。人类一直以来都梦想着去探索火星,现在在美国宇航局开展的一项活动中,六名志愿者正在夏威夷体验长达八个月的模拟火星环境的生活。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第四段“Mauna Loa, 2,500 metres above sea level, is geologically very similar to Olympus Mons on Mars and almost as tall as that Martian mountain.(莫纳罗亚火山海拔2 500米,在地质上与火星上的奥林匹斯山非常相似,几乎和那座火星山一样高。)”可知,奥林匹斯山在地质上与莫纳罗亚火山非常相似,故选B项。
2.C 推理判断题。根据第六段“Kim Binsted says this experiment looks at how the astronauts interact, or get along with each other.‘We study how well they work together, how we can keep them happy and supported, and not wanting to kill each other over these long durations.’(Kim Binsted说,这项实验着眼于宇航员如何互动,或彼此相处。‘我们研究他们在一起工作的情况,如何让他们开心,如何支持他们,以及如何在长时间内不让他们自相残杀。’)”可知,实验的目的是研究宇航员在孤立的环境下如何和别人交往。故选C项。
3.A 细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“Crew members communicate with the outside world through emails and blogs.They also produce videos on the YouTube website, like this one from mission commander Martha Lenio.(机组人员通过电子邮件和博客与外界交流。他们还在YouTube网站上制作视频,比如这段来自任
