第三部分 閱讀理解（共10小題；每小題2分，滿分20分）

A

News has just been received of an air crash in the north of England. The plane， which was on a charter flight from London to Carlisle， was carrying a party of businessmen on their way to a trade fair. It seems likely that the plane ran into a heavy fog as it was approaching Carlisle and was obliged to circle for some twenty minutes. Everything seemed to be going well. The pilot was in constant radio communication with Ground Control when the engines suddenly cut out and all contact was lost. The plane crashed on the site of the ancient Roman camp at Hadrian’s Hill， a place well known to archaeologists and tourists.

So far few details have been reported， but it is fearful that at least twenty people lost their lives； among them was the pilot， who was killed instantly. The local ambulances and firemen were on the scene within minutes of the crash， but additional help had to be rushed from other areas.

Mr. Lesilie Collins， one of the survivors， told our reporter， “We passengers noticed the engines were making a funny noise. Of course we couldn’t see anything because of the fog， but the pilot said there was nothing to worry about. The next thing we know， the engines went dead. There was a rushing noise， and after that I don’t remember any more.”

Mr. Collins is now in hospital， being treated for minor injuries. We will be bringing you further news of the crash as we receive it. In the meantime relatives are asked to ring 02-3457211 for information.

56. The plane was ____ .

A. flying some businessmen to LondonB. on a regular flight to London

C. returning from a trade fairD. flying to Carlisle

57. What happened when the plane was nearing Carlisle？

59. The news report tells us that when the crash occurred ____ .

B

Man is a land animal， but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today， nearly two-thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.

In the modern technological world， the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea， however， still can supply many of man’s needs.

The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined （開采）.

Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people， like Japanese and Chinese.

Besides oil and gas， the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.

Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong， new materials has made this possible.

The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2013 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food， minerals， and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.

61. The major things that the sea offers man are ____ .

A. fish， oil and ocean wavesB. minerals， oil and steam

C. warm temperature and ocean currentsD. the food， energy sources， and minerals

62. The sea serves the needs of man because ____ .

A. it provides man with foodB. it offers oil to man

C. it supplies man with mineralsD. all of the above

63. We can conclude from this passage that ____ .

A. the sea resources have largely been used up

B. the sea， in the broad sense， has not yet been developed

C. the problems that prevent us from using the food， minerals， and energy sources of the sea have already been solved.

D. by the year 2013， the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources

64. The underlined words “Oriental people” in the fourth paragraph probably mean ____ .

A. the people in AsiaB. African peopleC. European peopleD. American people

65. The best title for this passage is ____ .

A. Sea HarvestB. Sea Food

C. Technology for Exploiting the SeaD. Man and the Sea

Last weekend we decided to spend a day in the country. The only trouble is that other people had exactly a same idea. We moved out of the city slowly behind a long line of cars， and last we came to a quiet country road and， after some time， stopped in a lonely farm. We got our food out from the car and sat down near a path at the foot of a hill. It was very peace in the cool grass—until we heard of bells ringing at the top of the hill. That we saw made us pick up our things and ran back to the car. Hundreds of sheep was coming toward us down the path！
