【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Welcome to the Holiday Show. Today with me in the studio I have Richard Bennet, a travel consultant who's going to tell us about the holiday for those who have been everywhere. So Richard, what's the next frontier for the fearless traveller? M: We're already working on plans that will get tourists into space within the next ten years. W: So do you think that in a few years' time we'll be having hotels on the moon? M: Well, possibly, but the first step will probably be suborbital trips. That's staying within the earth's orbit. W: Then how will the tourists travel? M: It's about a hundred times as high as a jet plane usually goes and to get that high you'd need rocket planes, or capsules boosted by rockets. W: That must be exciting. Do tourists need any kind of training on earth? M: Yes, because there'll be tremendous G-forces during one minute or so, and then a few minutes' experience of weightlessness at zero gravity before the rocket returns to earth. They need a couple of days' training to get used to them through. W: So can you tell us who's going to be interested in trips like this? M: Well, we hope the general public will be interested in hearing about it, but it's hardly for those wanting rest and recreation and in fact the sort of person who will probably want to do this is quite easy to target. They're basically risk-takers. W: So you don't expect all that many people to go on these trips in the beginning? M: No, we don't think many people are going to pay out such large sums of money for just a few minutes. So the next stage is likely to be keeping them up there in the orbit for three or four hours. W: What can they do during this period? M: They'll have the chance to see our planet from space, and also to see the darkness of space, and really spectacular sunsets and sunrises one after another. W: So what about getting out of the earth's orbit and doing some real space tourism-holidays on Mars, for example? M: Well, yes, there are plans, and the next step is involving a really quite sizeable number of people in moon tours. W: So are we talking about hotels on the moon here? M: As on a cruise, your hotel is your means of transport. So it would involve taking a shuttle up to a spaceship. And passengers could even suit up and go outside space walking if they wanted. W: That will be marvelous! 这是一篇采访。录音中女士介绍完之后，开始对男士进行采访，问道“对于无畏的旅行者来说下一个目标是什么”，男士回答到他们已经在制定计划在未来的十年内让旅游者去太空。由此可知这个谈话是关于“太空旅行”的。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】录音中男士提到“the first step will probably be suborbital trips．That's staying within the earth's orbit．”(第一步可能将是亚太空旅行，就是呆在地球的轨道内)，所以C项“地球轨道内的旅行”正确。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】关于训练，男士提到因为有一分钟左右的巨大重力和火箭回到地球前几分钟的失重状态，他们需要通过几天的训练(a couple of days' training)来适应。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】关于潜在的旅游者，男士说到，大众可能会对此感兴趣，但是对于他们来说难以获得休息和娱乐。所以他们锁定的潜在旅游者主要是冒险者(They're basically risk-takers)。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】录音中男士提到许多人不会为了这几分钟花费大笔的钱，所以下一步有可能是让他们在轨道内呆三到四个小时(keeping them up there in the orbit for three or four hours)，由此可知旅行的时间预计会增加，所以选C。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】对话接近尾处时女士问道“So what about getting out of the earth's orbit…”，男士的回答中指出有这方面的计划，并提到“下一步是使大量的人参与到moon tours之中”。由此可见moon tours将是首批在地球轨道之外旅行的游客。

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】录音的最后男士提到“如果乘客愿意，他们甚至可以穿上宇航服在太空行走。”由此可知，人们可以在月球上进行太空行走。
