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.
We know from the passage that______.
选项
A、exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal
B、the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming
C、radiation is avoidable in space exploration
D、astronauts in spacesuits needn’t worry about radiation damage
答案
B
解析
本题问我们从文章中可以了解到什么。针对问题所给的四个选项,利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以从文章中找到与正确答案B相关的信息。文章第二段第四句话指出,但问题是如何确定辐射伤害非常困难。一个人在受到辐射的情况下,可能感觉良好,但他(她)的生殖器官细胞可能受到伤害,而且这种伤害直到他(她)的第一代畸形儿,甚至第二代畸形儿出生之后才得以确定。由此我们可以推断出本题的正确答案应是B“暴露在辐射下的后果需要很长的时间才会显现出来”。
