One benefit of travelling in the express lift to Gagarin was that :

  • A.he did not have to pay for it.
  • B.it was very thrilling.
  • C.he experienced zero gravity.
  • D.he could come down in less time.

Answer: C

The benefit was that he experienced zero gravity.

The passage says the express lift of Moscow University was used for experience of weightlessness: 'At a certain high speed the passenger would find himself suspended between the floor and ceiling of the lift without support. This was a convenient and inexpensive way of reproducing "zero gravity".'

The passage calls the method inexpensive, but not that he paid nothing. Whether it was thrilling is not stated, and coming down in less time is not the aim of the lift ride.
