Before a new airliner goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others. One of them is very strange and the other is very dangerous.
The first of these is called the"tank test". A modern airliner must fly at very high altitudes. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, or"pressured" , the air presses against the skin of the plane inside. The pressure on a small window, for example, is like a huge, giant foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to crack, the plane would explode in the sky. This is what happened to the first Comets. In order to test the structure of the plane, it is lowered into a huge tank of water. Then it is filled with air. The pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has cracked. This part is made stronger.
The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flight in the air. The test pilot must find out exactly what happens when all the engines are shut off at once. He takes the plane up very high. Then he shuts the engines off. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot’s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again. These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.
A test flight is dangerous because the test pilot has to______.
选项
A、fly this plane at a very high altitude
B、secure a safe landing in a plane crash
C、find out how to handle a plane when its engines stop working
D、fix the damaged engines during the flight
答案
C
解析
飞行测试的主要内容是将飞机控制在很高的高度,然后突然停止所有发动机,在飞机下落的过程中检查飞机,A、B、D叙述都不准确,故答案为C。
