ZHUHAI---China will soon put a person into space and become the third nation in the world to have manned spaceflight, a top Chinese aerospace official said on November 5.
A manned launch was not far off, Vice President Hu Hongfu China Aerospace Science Technology Corp (CASTC) told a news conference at the third Zhuhai Air Show . "It will not be long before Chinese astronauts can ride locally-made spaceships into space," Hu said. The official gave no timetable but said it would happen "at beginning of the 21st century."
The former Soviet Union and the United States have been putting people into orbit since the early 1960s, but other nations have not considered the challenge worth following.
China has already built and sent up its own satellites for communications and weather forecasting. The new communication satellites would help to encourage the country's broadcasting industry, Hu said.
But the company, which includes over 130 aerospace agencies, said the lifting ability and success rate of China's space-launches were almost equal in quality to those of other countries.
China would gradually close the distance between its country's space industry and that of other nations. He added that they were willing to send up commercial satellites for Taiwan.
On China's plan to send up manned spaceflights, Hu said China had made important development after the successful launch in November last year of the country's first experimental spaceship, Shenzhou. "The whole project is in the research stage and a lot of work needs to be done, " Hu said. "We need to have more tests of the unmanned spaceship."
China last year announced a four-step manned spaceflight plan with the aim of setting up a space-station served by a spaceship travelling between two places.
45.The underlined word "they" here probably refers to ____________.
A. the Soviet Union and the USA
B. over 130 aerospace agencies
C. Russia and China
D. Russia and the USA
46. The main idea of the 7th paragraph is ___________.
A. we haven't tested the manned spaceship
B. before we send a manned spaceship, we should carry out many tests
C. though we tried once, we need to do more tests of the unmanned spaceship
D. sending up a manned spaceship can show a country's scientific level
47. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "close"?
A. shut
B. drop
C. shorten
D. widen
48.The writer wrote the passage to ___________.
A. tell us the present situation of China's aerospace technology
B. remind us what we should do compared to other countries
C. find out the reason why China falls behind
D. tell us that china will send up its manned spaceship soon
