Space is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors (流星) but also because of rays from the sun and other stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.
Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called "rem". Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0. 1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage—a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed (畸形的) children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the outward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far.
The harm radiation has done to the Apollo crew members______.
选项
A、is insignificant
B、seems overestimated
C、is enormous
D、remains unknown
答案
D
解析
本题是一道具体细节题。问辐射对阿波罗号上的宇航员产生危害的情况。利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以在文章的第二段中找到相关内容。文章提到人能忍受辐射的量,从0.1到60雷目,也提到辐射对人体的伤害很难确定,需要很长的时间才能显现出来,阿波罗号上的宇航员身上积累了大量的辐射雷目,但还没有达到危险量的报道等,根据这些信息,我们可以确定本题的正确答案应是D“人们对辐射给阿波罗号上的宇航员带来的危害的情况仍然不清楚”。
