John Spencer of the Space Tourism Society says that a more realistic __43__ for regular space travel is 50 years. Issues of expense, difficulty, and danger must still be resolved. Oh yes – a reusable vehicle must also be invented. He adds, however, that ten years from now, a __44__ number of people may be able to visit a space station. He says he expects a fleet of private space vehicles or “space yachts” to be in __45__ in 20 to 25 years. They will do what he calls “orbital super yachting.” After that, there will be cruise lines, like those that travel the Earth’s oceans, as well as space hotels and resorts.

If all the issues can be resolved, Collins says that space tourism could one day become a $1 trillion.

Celebrity(名人) has become one of the most important representatives of popular culture. Fans used to be crazy about a specific film, but now the public 51_______ to base its consumption on the interest of celebrity attached to any given product. Besides, fashion magazines have almost 52______ the practice of putting models on the cover because they don’t sell nearly as well as famous 53______. As a result, celebrities have realized their unbelievably powerful market potential, moving from advertising for others’ products to 54_______ their own.
Celebrity clothing lines aren’t a 55_______ new phenomenon, but in the past they were typically aimed at the ordinary consumers, and 56_______ a few TV actresses. Today  they’re started by first-class stars whose products enjoy equal fame with some world top57______. The most successful start-ups have been those by celebrities with 58______ personal style. As celebrities become more and more experienced at the market, they expand their production scale rapidly, 59_______ almost all the products of daily life.
However, for every success story, there’s a related 60______ tale of a celebrity who overvalued his consumer appeal. No matter how famous the product’s 61_______ is, if it fails to impress consumers with its own qualities it begins to resemble an exercise in self-promotional marketing. And 62______ the initial attention dies down, consumer interest might fade, loyalty(忠诚) returning to tried-and-true labels.
Today, celebrities face even more severe embarrassment. The pop-cultural circle might be bigger than ever, but its rate of turnover has speeded up as well. Each misstep threatens to 63_____ a celebrity’s shelf life, and the same newspaper or magazine that once brought him fame has no problem picking him to pieces when the opportunity appears. 64______, the ego’s(自我的) potential for expansion is limitless. Having already achieved great wealth and public recognition, many celebrities see fashion as the next frontier to be conquered. As the saying goes, success and failure always go hand in hand.

On my arrival in America, the one thing I notice more than anything else was the tremendous amount of advertising that went on-on the radio, on television, on billboards and signposts, and in magazines. In the past three years, I have become accustomed to this fast in American life, for I believe that it is a creative and necessary part of an industrial society. I, too, want to improve my life-style and to buy better products, so I look to advertising to show me how to do it.
Deciding what to believe in advertising, however, is not easy. It seems to me that a person must purchase things with a lot of care. As a consumer, I want to get the best for my money, but I really have to understand the techniques of advertising. Otherwise, manufacturers will be able to sell me anything, no matter what its quality may be.
More and more people are becoming conscious, like me, of the ways in which advertising can affect them. The creative aspects of commercials, for instance, often cover up defects or problem in products. I have learned this well, since I have made purchases and lost money because the items were of poor quality.
The future of advertising most likely will involve a much greater degree of public participation. I intend to become involved in consumer groups that want to protect people from misleading advertising. In the future, if consumers like me really care about the quality, maybe advertisers will begin to care more about what they are trying to sell.

Between about 1910 and 1930, new artistic movements in European art were making themselves felt in the United States. American artists become acquainted with the new art on their trips to Paris and at the exhibitions in the famous New York gallery “291” of the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. But most important in the spread of the modern movements in the United States was the sensational Armory Show of 192-13 in New York, in which the works of a number of progressive American painters were shown.
Several of the American modernists who were influenced by the Armory Show found the urban landscapes, especially New York, an appealing subject. Compared with the works of the realist painters, the works of American modernists were much removed from the actual appearance of the city; they were more interested in the “feel ” of the “Ash Can School” and the later realists were still tied to nineteenth-century or earlier styles, while the early modernists shared in the international breakthroughs of the art of the twentieth century.
The greatest of these breakthroughs was Cubism, developed most fully in France between 1907 and 1914, which brought about a major revolution in Western painting. It overturned the rational tradition that had been built upon since the Renaissance. In Cubism, natural forms were broken down analytically into geometric shapes. No longer was a clear differentiation made between the figure and the background of a painting: objects represented and the surface on which they were painted became one. The Cubism abandoned the conventional single vantage point of the viewer, and objects depicted from multiple viewpoints were shown at the same time.
70. With what topic is the passage primarily concerned?
A. The comparison between various painters.
B. The greatest breakthroughs of the Armory Show.
C. The exhibitions in the famous New York gallery.
D. The modern art movement in the United States.
71. What was the most important in the spread of modern movements in the US?
A. The photographer Alfred Stiegliz.
B. The famous New York gallery 219.
C. The Armory Show of1913 in New York.
D. The exhibitions of art in Europe.
72. In what aspect did New York attract the modernists?
A. The exhibitions in shows.
B. The appearance of the city.
C. The feel of the city.
D. The galleries of modern art.
73. What great breakthrough brought about a significant revolution in Western painting?
A. Cubism.
B. The Ash Can School.
C. The Armory Show.
D. Modernism.

Crows are probably the most frequently met and easily identifiable members of the native fauna of the United States. The great number of tales, legends, and myths about these birds indicates that people have been exceptionally interested in them for a long time. On the other hand, when it comes to substantive — particularly behavioral —information, crows are less well known than many comparably common species and, for that matter, not a few quite uncommon ones: the endangered California condor, to cite one obvious example. There are practical reasons for this.
Crows are notoriously poor and aggravating subjects for field research. Keen observers and quick learners, they are astute about the intentions of other creatures, including researchers, and adept at avoiding them. Because they are so numerous, active, and monochromatic, it is difficult to distinguish one crow from another. Bands, radio transmitters, or other identifying devices can be attached to them, but this of course requires catching live crows, who are among the wariest and most untrappable of birds.
Technical difficulties aside, crow research
