Climate change is a big prblem humans are facing. Hw can we deal with it? Reducing carbn emissins (碳排放) is imprtant. But what if we culd capture carbn dixide (CO2) frm the air and use it t d ther things?
Recently, SpaceX funder Eln Musk said that his cmpany is wrking n a new prgram. It’s ging t take CO2 ut f the air and turn it int rcket fuel.
“It will nt nly be gd fr Earth, but will als be imprtant fr Mars,” Musk tweeted. The air n Mars is made up f 95 percent CO2. If we culd turn CO2 int fuel（燃料 ）, we culd travel the lng jurney frm Mars back t Earth in the future.
The idea may sund strange but it’s nt ttally crazy. There are already sme technlgies that might help with this. Accrding t Di-Jia Liu, a chemist at the Argnne Natinal Labratry in the US, the carbn atms (原子) in CO2 and the hydrgen (氢) atms in water can be cmbined t make methane (甲烷) r ethanl (乙醇). They culd be used as fuel. If we d this n Mars, energy frm the sun might be used as a catalyst (催化剂).
The idea will als make space travel mre ec-friendly. “If the CO2-based fuel culd be used in a rcket launch, we culd prevent 715 tns f CO2 frm being emitted int the air,” said Staffrd Sheehan frm Air Cmpany, a US cmpany that fcuses n CO2 capture technlgies.
( ) 56．SpaceX is wrking n ______.
A．Reducing CO2 emissinsB．Building a new rcket
C．Turning CO2 int fuelD．Traveling lng distances n Mars
( ) 57．What advantage will the prgram bring if it succeeds?
A．It will take energy frm the sun.
B．It will take 95 percent f CO2 ut f the air.
C．It will make it easier t travel frm Mars t Earth.
D．It will create free catalysts fr chemical experiments.
( ) 58．The underlined wrd “cmbined” in the passage means ______ in English.
A．turn intB．jin tgetherC．divide intD．separate frm
( ) 59．Frm what Staffrd Sheehan said, we can learn that ______.
A．scientists use 715 tns f CO2 t launch a rcket
B．rcket launching is an envirnmentally-friendly activity
C．there will be n CO2 emissins anymre
D．SpaceX’s idea wuld be gd fr the envirnment
