根据文章第四段的TheyboughtmuchoftheirequipmentusedandevensewedtheLegoman'sparachutebyhand.Intotal,theprojectcostonly$400.可知他们很多的设备都是二手的,甚至自己缝制乐高人的降落伞,所以他们的总费用才花了400美元,故选D项。
(4)细节理解题。
根据文章第五段的"Wehadalotofanxietyonlaunchdaybecausetherewerehighwindswhenweweregoingup,"Mathewtoldreporters.可知,在进行发射的那天风速很快,这让他们很担心,故选B项。
