Which one is not true about the astronaut mentioned in the news?
To the great relief of the U.S. space agency NASA, a spacewalking astronaut has solved a problem with the shuttle. But mission controllers say another irregularity might require an additional spacewalk.
Shuttle managers admitted they were apprehensive about sending astronaut Steve Robinson out to Discovery’s fragile underside, where some ceramic tiles had already been chipped by launch debris falling from Discovery’s external fuel tank.
But NASA officials felt they had no choice. Two pieces of heat-resistant fabric wedged between the tiles had popped out a few centimeters, threatening to make the searingly-hot, but normally smooth airflow beneath the shuttle even hotter by creating pockets of air turbulence during Monday’s re-entry.
So astronaut Robinson was moved cautiously to the area on the end the robot arm mounted to the International Space Station, where Discovery is docked for a maintenance visit. He carried only the tools needed for the job, forceps and a hacksaw, for use if he could not pull the fabric out with his fingers.
选项
A、He had made a spacewalk and solved a problem with the shuttle.
B、He was sent out to the underside of the shuttle.
C、He had to make another spacewalk to solve the problem on the robot arm.
D、His name was Steve Robinson.
答案
C
解析
用排除法解答。D:His name was Steven Robinson.是最容易看出是对的,故排除。文中第一句a spacewalking astronaut has solved a problem with the shuttle看出A选项也是对的,可排除。文中第二段sendingastronaut Steve Robinson out to Discovery’s fragile underside和B没有太大出入,所以B也可排除。C:to solve theproblem on the robot arm和原文的astronaut Steve Robinson was moved to the area on the end the robot arm mounted tothe International Space Station有出入,因为是astronaut Steve Robinson要去安装了机器人手臂的国际空间站。
