Tons of gold have fallen out of the sky in Russia after a cargo plane malfunctioned in midair this morning.
The aircraft was carrying 265 million pounds worth of gold and diamonds, when the door flew open— sending the precious metal back to earth.
According to the official news agency, Russian authorities have recovered more than 170 gold bars weighing 20 kilograms each. The plane was traveling from Yakutsk Airport in a major diamond-producing region to the city Krasnoyarsk in Siberia.
However, the aircraft made an emergency landing in Magan after it began losing some of its valuable cargo.
Reports suggest some bars of gold were scattered up to 15 miles away from the airport. Nine tons of gold on plane AN-12 belonged to a goldmine company.
Police have sealed off the runway, and say it is unclear if it was an accident or an attempted robbery. Technical engineers who worked on the plane prior to take-off are reportedly going to be questioned by the police.
5. What is the news report mainly about?
6. What did the aircraft do when the incident happened?
7. What does the news report say about the technical engineers who worked on the plane before take-off?
选项 A、The disappearance of some gold and diamonds.
B、The transfer of tons of precious metal by air.
C、The crash of a Russian cargo airplane.
D、The loss of gold from an airplane.
答案D
解析 主旨大意题。新闻开头提到，一架货运飞机在俄罗斯上空发生故障，大量黄金从飞机上散落下来。随后指出，飞机在开始丢失贵重货物后紧急降落，接着分析了黄金的散落位置、出处以及丢失黄金的原因。因此可知，新闻围绕飞机上遗失的黄金展开，故答案为D)。
