Space X launched a cheaper, partially-used rocket into orbit. That’s a stride toward【C1】________the price tag of sending payload to space. Successfully flying reusable rockets is a【C2】________step toward the dream of sending people to Mars. Until now, rockets have almost all been single-use. Once the fuel is【C3】________, a rocket stage plummets to Earth, resulting in the destruction of extremely expensive equipment that costs tens of millions of dollars to build.
Its founder has likened that to【C4】________a 747 jet after one flight, which would make air travel impossibly expensive. He has suggested that rocket launches could【C5】________be much cheaper since the cost of the rocket propellants are less than 1 percent of the full-price ticket for a launch. So, if a rocket could be simply refueled like a jetliner for another flight, the cost of space travel could drop to a【C6】________of what it is now. The stresses of spaceflight on reused boosters, however, are much greater than those on jetliners. The economics will depend on how many times a booster can be flown, and how much the 【C7】________expense will be to repair the booster each time.
Reusable spaceships are not a new idea. NASA’s space shuttles were the first real【C8】________at a reusable spaceship, but the shuttles proved more【C9】________than hoped, requiring an army of technicians to【C10】________them between flights. As a result, they ended up being more expensive than expendable rockets.
【C10】
选项
答案
J
解析
分析句子成分可知,空格处为require sb. to do sth. 结构,再结合空格后的宾语them可知,空格处应填入一个及物动词的原形。上一段提到,决定太空航行所需花费的关键性因素是每次维修所需要的花费,而下文提到,太空飞行比消耗性火箭昂贵得多,由此可以推断,太空飞行之所以昂贵是因为维修费用高,因此此处是说每次飞行后都需要大批技术人员进行整修,故J项maintain“维持;保养”为答案。
