Question

18．While many probably remember using their childhood imaginations to turn the Moon's dark markings into a picture of a rabbit on the Moon，just recently China put a different sort of rabbit on the Moon：a lunar probe dubbed"Jade Rabbit．"Now，they have followed up by releasing pictures of the probe in action．
Last weekend，China's National Space Administration made China the first nation to make a soft landing on the Moon since 37 years ago．The Soviet Union's probe，Luna 2，was the first on September 14，1959，followed by the United States，who eventually caught up with and surpassed the Soviet Union by putting the first human on the Moon，Neil Armstrong，on July 20，1969．
Jade Rabbit was launched on December 1 with the mission of exploring the Moon's surface in an attempt to locate natural resources．It will be deployed on this mission for a period of three months．
The probe reportedly shut down its explorations on December 16 due to high temperatures with plans to leave it inactive until December 23，but it was started up again on December 20 in order to gain more research time．
The country has aspirations of putting a human on the Moon by 2025，an area which has up until now been dominated by the United States，who last landed a man on the Moon in 1972 with astronaut Eugene Cernan．
China's recent attention to the Moon appears to have once again stirred up American interest in space exploration．In the December issue of New Space magazine，Christopher McKay makes an argument that the U．S．should consider setting up a lunar research base，citing among his reasons the fact that it is important to maintain U．S．influence on the Moon．
63．When did the humans make a soft landing on the moon next to China's？A
A.1976．B.1972．C.1969．D.1959．
64．The mission of the lunar probe will endB？
A．after 37 years exploration
B．after three months research．
C．till 2025
D．till 2017．
65．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE？B
A．China will put a human on the Moon twelve years later．
B．Two countries have put humans on the moon-The USA and the former USSR．
C．Christopher McKay stated that the USA is interested in returning to the moon．
D．The probe shut down its explorations because it is extremely hot on the moon．
66．What does the underlined word mean in the first paragraph？B
A．Launched
B．Named
C．Made
D．Explored．

Answer 1

分析 本文讲述了登月的国家以及时间．

解答 63．A推断题．由第二段第一句"On December 2，2013，which was just last weekend，China's National Space Administration made China the first nation to make a soft landing on the Moon since 37 years ago．"可知，在中国前面一个登上月球的国家距今已有37年，今年是2013年，37年前应为1976年，故正确答案为A．
64．B细节题．由第三段最后一句"It will be deployed on this mission for a period of three months．"可知，这次任务将持续三个月，故正确答案为B．
65．B推断题．由第二段最后一句中"The Soviet Union's probe，Luna 2，was the first on September 14，1959，followed by the United States，who eventually caught up with and surpassed the Soviet Union by putting the first human on the Moon，Neil Armstrong，on July 20，1969．"可知，前苏联发射了第一个飞船（没有载人），而美国赶超前苏联，实现了人员登陆，即 Neil Armstrong 登上了月球，故前苏联没有将人员送上月球．B项错误．
A项，由倒数第二段第一句"The country has aspirations of putting a human on the Moon by 2025．"可知，中国计划在2025年之前将人送到月球上，今年是2013年，即12年后，A项表述正确．
C项，由最后一段最后一句"Christopher McKay makes an argument that the U．S．should consider setting up a lunar research base，citing among his reasons the fact that it is important to maintain U．S．influence on the Moon．"可知，C项表述正确．
D项，由倒数第三段第一句"The probe reportedly shut down its explorations on December 16 due to high temperatures with plans to leave it inactive until December 23"可知，D项表述正确．
题干要求找出表述错误的选项，故正确答案为B．
66．B 推断题．由划线处句子"a lunar probe dubbed'Jade Rabbit'．"可知，此处"Jade Rabbit"应为"lunar probe"的名称，故 dubbed 可用 named（名为）代替，launched"被发送"，made"被制造"，explored"勘探过的"，故正确答案为B．
