第三部分 閱讀理解（共10小題；每小題2分，滿分20分）

A

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past. There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people read only the sports pages， the advice or the gossip columns， the comics， and perhaps the classified advertisements. Most people don’t take the time to read the real news. They attempt to catch the reader’s interest with pictures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and headline to make them stop and look. If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough， perhaps they will go on to read the front page any more. They may read the headlines， but that is all， then they turn to the sports page， or comics， or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper any more. They say they get the news on the television now.

More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you？ Do you read news from a newspaper？ Do you think it is easier to get the news from television？ Or do you care about news at all？ Would you mind if there were no news？

B

The wish to make exploration（探索）is born with man. Wherever his imagination goes， man always has a strong wish to go. A large part of human history is connected with the exploration of the world in which we live. Again and again people have set out with surprising courage and patience to look into unknown areas and lands to see what had not yet been seen， and to make the unknown known. With kites and balloons they left the ground to pass through the sky. Now the outer space receives their attention.

Why should man take the trouble of exploring space？ It is hard to list practical benefits（實際的利益）that will result in. From past experience in other areas， what man will see and discover in space will increase our scientific knowledge， and this new knowledge will find its way into valuable practical uses. What we learn about man himself， from his experience in space， and from the space flight environment， will be extremely valuable. The newest technology developed to carry out the exploration of space， and to keep man alive in space， will certainly find practical uses in everyday life in some ways. The areas that will benefit are manifold. They include communication， power， transportation， travel， food production， materials， and many others. But to say definitely just what the practical results will be is almost impossible.

61. The man idea of the first paragraph is that ___ .

A. man wishes to explore what is unknown

B. man often goes wherever his dreams go

C. man is no longer interested in the study of the Earth

A. no space explorationB. the exploration of space

C. exploring more in space than in other areasD. less space explorations

65. The final purpose of man’s exploring space is ___ .
