The Miami Planetarium opened its doors to the public on November 4,1966 and has entertained and educated children of all ages about astronomy and the wonders of the night sky ever since. The Planetarium houses a 65-foot diameter domed(圓頂;!夫的) projection screen with 231 seats. At the heart of the Planetarium is a SPITZ "Space Transit Planetarium" star projector(放映機(jī)) ,which is capable of accurately reproducing the stars and planets as seen from anywhere on Earth at any time during the year,shows daily except Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Unlike any other in South Florida,the Planetarium is a unique setting for bringing the stars and planets indoors in animated live star shows and music-filled laser light shows.

The Weintraub Observatory(天文臺(tái)) houses two powerful telescopes. Observatory hours are from 8:00 p.m. to 10: 00 p.m. Look through the telescope to view the planets, the four moons of Jupiter,the rings of Saturn and deep sky objects such as galaxies, nebulate and double stars.

Deposit: A $75 deposit must be received 10 days prior to the visit date to guarantee your visit.

Cancellation Policy:The museum requires a 48 hours advance notice prior to any cancellation or other changes to a reservation.

Payment Policy:The balance of the admission fee is due upon arrival at the museum on your visit day.

Upon Arrival:The leading teacher should check in at the box office with payment for the correct head count of students, and teachers. Visitors should remain on the bus until a museum interpreter shows you around the museum.

Museum Etiquette:We ask that all groups remain together and orderly. Teachers are asked to help maintain order with their groups. We reserve the right to refuse service to any group or individual not obeying the museum policies.

Bus Procedures:The museum will provide parking for buses in our parking lot. Upon arrival, bus drivers will be directed by the museum staff to the appropriate places to park. It is recommended that buses remain on the spots throughout the group' s entire museum visit.

8.C細(xì)節(jié)理解題„才艮據(jù)"Shows daily except Thanksgiving and Christmas Day."和"The Weintraub Observatory houses two powerilil telescopes. Observatory hours are from 8:00 p.m. to10:00 p.m. Look through the telescope to view the planets"等信息可知,A項(xiàng)時(shí)間不正確,應(yīng)為from8:00p. m. to 10:00 p. m.; D項(xiàng)也不正確,因?yàn)槭フQ節(jié)不放映;B項(xiàng)在文中沒(méi)有對(duì)應(yīng)信息,故選C。

9. A數(shù)字計(jì)算題。根據(jù)"School Groups: $10.00 per person. One free teacher admission per 10 students."可知,學(xué)校團(tuán)體票為每人10美元,每去10個(gè)學(xué)生可以免一個(gè)老師的門票,故他們總共需要買23 個(gè)人的門票,總計(jì)230美元。

10. D邏輯推理題。根據(jù)"The Weintraub Observatory houses two powerful telescopes. Observatory hours are from 8:00 p. m. to 10:00 p. m."可以推斷出觀測(cè)臺(tái)只在晚上開(kāi)放,白天是不對(duì)游客開(kāi)放的。

11. B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)"A $75 deposit must be re?ceived 10 days prior to the visit date to guarantee your visit."可知,為了保證參觀能按時(shí)進(jìn)行,事先要求預(yù)付訂金。

12. A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)"We reserve the right to re?fuse service to any group or individual not obeying the museum policies."可知,如果參觀者不遵守規(guī)則,天文館有可能拒絕提供服務(wù)。
