The Race into Space
American millionaire Dennis Tito will always be famous. He was the first tourist in space. "I spent sixty years on Earth and eight days in space and from my viewpoint, it was two separate lives," Tito explained. He loved his time in space. "Being in space and looking back at earth is one of the most rewarding experiences a human being can have."
This kind of experience isn't cheap. It cost $20 million. However, Tito achieved his dream. So he was happy. "For me it was a life dream. It was a dream that began when I didn't have any money," he told reporters.
On 30 April 2002, Mark Shuttleworth became the world's second space tourist. Shuttleworth is a South African Businessman. At the age of twenty-eight. He also paid $20 million for the eight-day trip.
Both Tito and Shuttleworth bought their tickets from a company called Space Adventures. The company has around 100 people already on their waiting list for flights into space. The spaceship to take them doesn't exist yet.
Many of the customers are people who like adventure. They are the kind of people who also want to climb Mount Qomolangma. Other customers are people who love space. However, these people are worried. Because it's so expensive, only very rich people can go into space. They want space travel to be available to more people.
That day may soon here. Inter Orbital Systems (IOS) plans to send up to four tourists a week into space. The tours will depart from an island in Tonga. The company promises a package that includes forty-five days of astronaut training in Russia and California, seven days in space, and a vacation in Tonga For $2 million.
However, space flight is still very dangerous. Bill Readdy is NASA's deputy assistant adminis-trator for space flight. He says that the chances of dying are about 1 in 500. Because of this it may take time before space tourism really takes off. You might be able to go up, but will you come down?

答案与解析：
1. A。题干：r Dennis Tito是第一位太空旅行者。由专有名词Dennis Tito定位，这是第一题，因此回到文章第一段，找到相关句。第一段介绍了美国富豪Dennis Tito作为第一位太空游客的经历。因此，本题的答案为A。
2. B。题干：Mark Shuttleworth是来自美国的工程师。将人名Mark Shuttleworth回到原文定位，文章第三段指出Mark ShuRleworth是一位南非商人。因此，本题与文章内容不符。答案为B。
3. c。题干：Tito和Shuttlewolth都攀登过珠穆朗玛峰。文章没有涉及二人攀登珠穆朗玛峰的信息。因此答案为C。
4. A。题干：太空冒险活动有大约100名顾客在等着太空旅行。用数字100回到文中定位，发现文章第四段第二句提到：“这家公司已有一百多人在等待飞往太空的名单上登记。”本句与文章内容相符，因此，答案为A。
5. B。题干：太空探险公司已经拥有一架宇宙飞船。由中心名词spaceship回到文章定位，文章第四段最后指出：“不过运载他们的宇宙飞船还没出现。”因此，本题答案为B。
6. A。题干：IOS将从Tonga发送旅客进入太空。用地名“汤加群岛”回到原文定位，文章第六段谈到了太空轨道传送公司的计划，指出进入太空的旅行将从汤加群岛的一个岛
屿出发。本题与文章内容相符。因此答案为A。
7. A。题干：Bill Readdy认为太空飞行是非常危险的。用人名Bill Readdy回到原文定位，文章最后一段提到太空旅行依然是非常危险的，接着Bill Readdy还指出太空旅行的死亡率是1/500，正是由于这一点，也许太空旅行真正启程尚需时目。因此可以推断，Bill Readdy认为太空飞行非常危险。本题与文章内容相符，故答案为A。
