News Item 1
The space shuttle Endeavour is taking off on its final endeavor. The launch was delayed due to mechanical problems, but NASA officials said those were all fixed.
The shuttle and its crew are headed to the international space station. This is a 16-day mission and the next-to-the-last mission for the space shuttle program. Mae Jemison has flown on Endeavour before. On that mission, she became the first African-American woman to travel into space. She said yesterday’s launch brought up mixed emotions.
"Things are transitioning. When we spoke last year, we were there talking about the fact that the shuttle era was coming to an end, and now the United States was putting more of its research money into how to do interplanetary travel, how to come up with the kinds of engines that are needed to go, to taking us to an asteroid. (7) So, that transition is great, but it’s sort of hard to see the shuttle program ending. "
选项
A、Endeavour’s last trip to the universe.
B、the first African-American woman flying into space.
C、the mixed emotion of astronauts towards the shuttle program.
D、the new orientation of space program of the US.
答案

解析
根据句(6)可知,“奋进号”航天飞机马上就要完成它最后一次飞行使命。而后面的两段分别讲了此次飞行的主要情况,以及其中一位宇航员对最后一次飞行的百感交集的感受,其中涉及了美国对未来太空计划的转型。故答案为[A]。
