12. The only physical factor preventing a human journey to Mars has been weight. Carrying enough fuel to propel a conventional spacecraft to Mars and back would make even the lightest craft too heavy to be launched from Earth. A device has recently been invented, however, that allows an otherwise conventional spacecraft to refill the craft’s fuel tanks with fuel manufactured from the Martian atmosphere for the return trip. Therefore, it is possible for people to go to Mars in a spacecraft that carries this device and then return.

Which one of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

A. The amount of fuel needed for a spacecraft to return from Mars is the same as the amount of fuel needed to travel from Earth to Mars.

B. The fuel manufactured from the Martian atmosphere would not differ in composition from the fuel used to travel to Mars.

C. The device for manufacturing fuel from the Martian atmosphere would not take up any of the spaceship crew’s living space.

D. A conventional spacecraft equipped with the device would not be appreciably more expensive to construct than current spacecraft typically are.

E. The device for manufacturing fuel for the return to Earth weighs less than the tanks of fuel that a conventional spacecraft would otherwise need to carry from Earth for the return trip.

my answer is B,but the correct answer isE,i can not understand.why??

哈哈,有道理呢。所以B答案也不是那么绝对呢。谢谢

 manufactured from the Martian atmosphere for the return trip 

这个device 是在飞船上的?文中没有说这一点啊!

我一下想象成空中加油。。。

哦,明白了 谢谢楼上的

答案B我觉得也应该是对的阿。要是燃料成分不一样 那根本没有办法回来哦

thanks a lot !

It is too heavy for the conventional aircraft to fly with enough fuel. Now that you have few fuel to fly, but if the device weighs more than the fuel, then the aircraft is again, cannot fly with that device.
