Lesson61 Trouble with the Hubble 哈勃望远镜的困境In future, astronauts will be required to descend from a spaceship while it is still in space and to return to it. The ability to do this will be necessary in future flights to distant planets. Scientists are now trying to discover if this is possible. The spaceship Astra which left the earth a short time ago, will be travelling three hundred miles into space. At a certain point, the Astra will stop for a short time and an astronaut will attempt to leave the stationary spaceship and then return to it. We shall not know whether the experiment has been successful until we have received a radio message. The first message is expected to arrive at 7 o'clock this evening. By that time, the Astra will have been flying through space for seventeen hours and will have circled the earth a great many times. When the first radio messages have been received, the results of the trip will be announced immediately.哈勃望远镜于1990年4⽉20⽇由国家航空航天局发射升空，耗资10多亿美元。

新概念第二册课后题答案详解Lesson61新概念英语第二册课后习题 Lesson 611. b根据课文第3-4行 The pictures it sent us were very disappointing because its main mirror was faulty! 能够判断出只有b. there was a problem with its main mirror 与课文实际内容相符，其他3个选择都与课文事实不符。

2. a根据课文第10-11行 the Hubble will tell us a great deal about the age and size of the universe 能够判断只有a. will tell us a great deal about the universe 是课文所提及的内容，其他3个选择都不是课文所涉及的内容。

3. c只有c. will be repairing(将要修理)与前一句中的is going to put...right(准备修正)的时态和意义相符合，所以应该选c. 其他3个选择都不够准确。

a. is repairing,b. has already repaired 都与前一句时态不符合;d. to repair 是动词不定式，不能做谓语，不符合语法.4. c只有c. will be taken (将被送上)这个句子才能意思通顺。

因为该句需要被动语态：four astronauts will be taken to the Hubble(宇航员将被送上哈勃)。

其他3个选择都不是被动语态，所以选c.5. a只有a. for 能够引导表示目的的短语，在句子中做目的状语，而其他3个选择b. so that, c. so long as 和 d. which 都只能引导从句而不能跟名词短语，所以选a.6. da. when, 和 c. while 这两个词意思相同,都能够引导时间状语从句,表示当....时,所以这两个选择都应该排除 . b. and能够连接两个句子,使其成为并列句,但该句用and 连接不太合乎逻辑.只有d. because 最合乎题的意思,引导原因状语从句.全句的意思：因为它位于地球的大气层之外,所以哈勃会给我们传送清晰照片.所以我们选择d.7. ca. As soon as , 和b. The moment都能够引导时间状语从句，表示“一……就……”;d. When 能够引导时间状语从句，表示“当……时”，这3个选择都没有明显地表示时间的先后顺序，只有c. Before 表示“在……之前”，使该句更接近课文中第11-12行的原句，所以选c.8. a该句需要选出同前一句中的launched (发射)含义相同的词组。

新概念英语第⼆册第61课课⽂详注 further notes on the text1．at a cost of,造价为……，耗资，以……的价格/费⽤。

he has just built a new house for his family at a cost of ￡10,000.他刚为他的家庭盖了⼀座新房⼦，耗资1万英镑。

2．right from the start there was trouble with the hubble. 从最开始哈勃望远镜就有问题。

（1）start为名词，表⽰"开始"、"开端"，from the start表⽰"从开始时"，副词right起强调作⽤：he didn't want to work at the firm(right) from the start.他从最开始就不想在这家公司上班。

（2）trouble在这⾥指"（机器等的）故障"、"问题"：there is (engine) trouble with my car.我的汽车（发动机）有问题。

（3）the hubble代指 the hubble telescope。

由于上下⽂中没有其他以 hubble命名的东西，前⾯⼜提到过⼀次hubble telescope,所以⽤ the hubble既简洁⼜不会引起误解。

3．nasa is now going to put the telescope right…国家航天局准备纠正这⼀错误……put right表⽰"修好（故障等）"、"校正"、"纠正"等：have you put the watch/clock right?你把表/钟对好了吗？remember to put the lights right tomorrow.明天记得把灯修好。

Lesson 61 Trouble with the Hubble一、阅读课文The Hubble telescope was launched into space by NASA on April 20,1990 at a cost of over a billion dollars. Right from the start there was trouble with the Hubble. The pictures it sent us were very disappointing because its main mirror was faulty! NASA is now going to put the telescope right, so it will soon be sending up four astronauts to repair it. The shuttle Endeavour will be taking the astronauts to the Hubble. A robot-arm from the Endeavour will grab the telescope and hold it while the astronauts make the necessary repairs. Of course, the Hubble is above the earth's atmosphere, so it will soon be sending us the clearest pictures of the stars and distant galaxies that we have ever seen. The Hubble will tell us a great deal about the age and size of the universe. By the time you read this, the Hubble's eagle eye will have sent us thousands and thousands of wonderful pictures. (161 words)二、单词解析unch [lɔːntʃ]v. 发射；发起；发动NASA plans to launch a satellite to study cosmic rays.美国国家航空航天局计划发射一颗卫星来研究宇宙射线。
