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) ，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) 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.

Answer 1

8.C細節理解題„才艮據"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項時間不正確，應為from8:00p. m. to 10:00 p. m.; D項也不正確，因為圣誕節不放映；B項在文中沒有對應信息，故選C。

9. A數字計算題。根據"School Groups: $10.00 per person. One free teacher admission per 10 students."可知，學校團體票為每人10美元，每去10個學生可以免一個老師的門票，故他們總共需要買23 個人的門票，總計230美元。

10. D邏輯推理題。根據"The Weintraub Observatory houses two powerful telescopes. Observatory hours are from 8:00 p. m. to 10:00 p. m."可以推斷出觀測臺只在晚上開放，白天是不對游客開放的。

11. B細節理解題。根據"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進行，事先要求預付訂金。

12. A細節理解題。根據"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則，天文館有可能拒絕提供服務。
