Flying the Hypert1 Skies
A little airplane has given new meaning to the term going hyper.
The Hyper-X is an unmanned,experimental aircraft just 12 feet long. It achieves hypersonic speed using a special sort of engine known as a scramjet3.It may sound like something from a comic book,but engineers have been experimenting with scramjets since the 1960s.
Out of the three experimental Hyper-X aircrafts built for NASA5,only one is now left.The agency has plans for another 11-second hypersonic flight,this time at 10 times the speed of the sound.

C It works only at speeds greater than five times the speed of sound.
4. What did Werner J.A.Dahm of the University of Michigan say about the Hyper-X test flight?
B It was self-powered,so it lasted only 11 seconds.

A To make another 11-second hypersonic flight at 10 times the speed of the sound.
C To retest the aircraft that is left.
答案与题解:
B 第四段讲了三种发动机的氧气喷气式发动机是从空气中汲取氧气,火箭发动机必须自携氧气,而超音速冲压喷气发动机则不必白携氧气,而这正是Hyper-X使用的发动机装置。
D 文章的第六段中,密歇根大学的研究人员Werner J.A.Dahm说,Hyper-X的试飞成功只是研制一种新式快速飞机过程中的一个里程碑,而不是新型飞机的诞生。所以,D是正确选择,A是错误选择。B也不是Werner J.A.Dahm想要表达的意思。C是其他下程师而不是Werner J.A.Dahm说的话。
