A
Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously.Jason was determined not to go against their father's wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother.He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.
“Dad will be really mad if he finds out you've been playing with his new computer.”Jason said，“He told us not to touch it.”
“He won't find out.”Mark said，“I'll just have a quick look and shut it down.”
Mark had been scolded before for touching his father's equipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.
It was a strange­looking machine—one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked.“It's an experimental model，”his father had explained，“so don't touch it under any circumstances.”But his father's warning only served to make Mark more curious.Without any further thought，Mark turned on the power switch.The computer burst into life and seconds later，the screen turned into colors，shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the centre of the screen：“SPACE TRANSPORTER.”
“Yes！”Mark cried excitedly，“It's a computer game.I knew it！Dad's only been pretending to work.He's really been playing games instead.”A new message appeared on the screen：
“ENTER NAMES
VOYAGER 1：...
VOYAGER 2：...”
Mark's fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.
“INPUT ACCEPTED.START TRANSPORT PROGRAM.AUTO­RETRIEVE INITIATED(自动回收程序已启动)．”
The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.
“I think we'd better shut it off，Mark，”Jason yelled，reaching for the power switch.He was really frightened.
But his hand never reached the switch.A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen，wrapping the boys in its glow(光芒)，until they themselves seemed to be glowing.Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life.And the boys were no longer there.On the screen，the letters changed.
“TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION(目的地)：MARS.RETRIEVE DATE：2025.”
56．Why did Mark touch the computer against his father's warning?

More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children，a new survey showed last Tuesday.
The survey，published by the Bank of America，studied the rich with $3 million or more in assets.It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well­developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”．
The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self­made，first­generation rich.Fifty­two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are，and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth.One in three parents said they had never thought to do it.
They are worried that their children would become lazy，spend money freely，make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.
Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.
“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation，” said Sallie Krawcheck，president of the Global Wealth and Investment Management of the Bank of America.“Our research，however，uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”
The trend is led by the world's richest man Bill Gates，who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife，the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会)，and not to his children.
“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact，”he said.
Of his plans for his children，Gates said：“I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage...they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”
64．We can learn from the passage that__________.
A．rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance
B．rich parents don't equal rich kids，at least in the US
C．American children don't get to inherit their parents' wealth
D．poor children don't expect themselves to be as rich as their parents
65．According to the survey，most rich Americans__________.
A．think they owe their children nothi
