Answer 1

答案：1．D;2．A;3．C;4．A;5．B;
解析：

(1)	第三段一开头就提到the plan depends on the money getting from the government，而“技术”“经验”和“宇航员”并不是最大的困难所在，因为中国已经两次成功地发射了载人飞船。
(2)	第六段和第七段提到，中国登月计划的目的是for peaceful ends，而不是in competition with the United States，也不是the competition of the Cold War era。
(3)	短文中跟“27.5吨”有关的是中国正在研制能够承载重27.5吨的宇宙飞船的火箭，而没有说神舟六号飞船重27.5吨。
(4)	解题的关键是最后一段第一句中的dismiss一词，从最后一句“He noted the recent space ship cost ＄111.4 million, compared to the ＄23.5 billion that China spent on fighting against pollution last year．”可以判断出Hu Shixiang觉得制造飞船相对于治理污染的费用并不昂贵，由此可知他认为the space program is too costly for our country的说法是错误的。
(5)	文章一开头就提到China’s space program wants to be able to put a man on the moon and build a space station in 15 years，接着提到的也都跟登月计划相关。
