Задача

Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Баранова, Дули, Копылова 9 класс, Просвещение: 5 Russia
Reading & Listening
1 What do you know about Russia’s space camp. Star City? Think of three questions you have about it. Listen to and read the text. Did it answer your questions?
2 Read the text again. Decide which of the statements (1-8) are T (True), F (False) or NS (Not stated), meaning you can’t give a dear answer to them.
1 Star City is just as important as it ever was.
2 Trainee cosmonauts aren’t allowed to leave Star City.
3 Reminders of Yuri Gagarin are everywhere.
4 The spacecraft replicas are smaller than in real life.
5 The ISS has a pool for the cosmonauts to practice spacewalking.
6 The centrifuge helps train a cosmonaut to space walk.
7 Landing the Spacecraft is more difficult for the cosmonauts than the launch.
8 Space tourists have to prepare well for their flight.
Star city: Russia’s Space Camp
It’s the birthplace of spaceflight, and the place where cosmonauts including Yuri Gagarin have trained since the 1960s. Until recently, it was a highly secret facility and it is still not featured on any maps. After more than 50 years Star City, or Zvyozdny Gorodok, near Moscow, is still at the heart of the Russian space programme.
Surrounded by thick pine forest. Star City has been described as the perfect town with its clean, wide streets and friendly people. There are no traffic jams a billboards and the town has its own school, shops, cinema, recreation facilities and railway station. Almost 7,000 cosmonauts, training centre personnel and their families live here. In the town’s central square, there is a huge statue of Yuri Gagaria Traditionally, all cosmonauts place flowers here before they fly.
The reason for Star City’s existence is the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre where cosmonauts undertake their years of intensive training. The training equipment at the centre is very advanced. There are full- sized replicas of real spacecraft such as the Soyuz spacecraft, and the ISS (International Space Station). There’s a planetarium simulating the stars where the cosmonauts learn how to calculate their position while in space. There’s also a giant pool with a replica of a part of the ISS submerged m it. Cosmonauts wear diving suits loaded with weights to team how to space walk while working on the outside of a space station Elsewhere, there’s the centrifuge, which rotates the trainees in a tiny capsule to simulate G-force and weightlessness. This spins at 170 mph and riders are told not to open their mouths while moving because the pressure would break their jaw! This is a necessary part of training, though; during a spacecraft launch a cosmonaut can experience four times the force of gravity.
It’s extremely tough to be accepted for cosmonaut training, but some wealthy people have paid around 30 million dollars to have the chance to be a space tourist. These people still had to spend about 8 months training at the centre, though, until they blasted off. But if, like most people, you don’t have tens of millions of dollars to spare, you can still visit the training centre to be a cosmonaut fa the day. You can take a tour of the centre, try on a spacesuit, experience weightlessness and practice docking a spacecraft in a simulator!
There are exciting plans to make Star City a top tourist attraction in the near future. This won’t be hard; it’s already an extraordinary place!

Подробный ответ

Ответ

T — Star City is still at the heart of the Russian space programme.
NS — it is not stated that trainee cosmonauts aren’t allowed to leave Star City.
T — there is a huge statue of Yuri Gagarin, and cosmonauts traditionally place flowers there.
NS — the text says there are full-sized replicas, so it does not say they are smaller.
T — there is a giant pool with a replica of part of the ISS for spacewalk training.
F — the centrifuge helps simulate G-force and weightlessness, not spacewalking.
NS — the text mentions the force during launch, but does not compare launch and landing.
T — space tourists still had to spend about 8 months training.
