C

If you gaze(凝視)through a telescope at a distant galaxy(星系), it may glow brightly with the light of hundreds of millions of stars. Despite(盡管,不顧) all that light, most scientists think that at the center of a big galaxy lies something very dark: a black hole. A black hole is a region of space with gravity so strong that nothing can escape, not even light.

Astronomers recently announced they had observed a faraway galaxy that may have at its center two black holes, very close together. Based on their observations, the stargazers suspect one of the black holes has more mass than the other. The more mass something has, the stronger its gravitational force, so a larger black hole has a stronger gravitational attraction. The smaller black hole orbits(作軌道運行) the larger black hole, just as the earth orbits the sun.

The biggest galaxies in the universe form when two smaller galaxies collide(碰撞). If  two galaxies merge(合并), then all of their stars start orbiting a common center. The black holes at the galaxies’ centers should come together, too. Galaxies are colliding all the time, so we should be able to find lots of black hole pairs. But that’s easier said than done—astronomers rarely find these in deep space.

To find a black hole is complicated. A black hole doesn’t produce any light, so how can you find one in space? Astronomers think when something (like dust) falls into a giant black hole, a jet of radiation, a form of energy, may stream away. If this radiation is strong enough, it forms a quasar(類星體).

The Arizona astronomers looked at more than 17,000 quasars and finally found a galaxy that may have a double black hole at its heart. Though the finding of their research is still unconfirmed, and they may be mistaken, the truth will be revealed in the future.

63. Which of the following is TRUE about black holes?

A. A black hole is a region in galaxies with nothing in it, even a bunch of light.

B. Black holes are used by astronomers to study how quasars come into being.

C. When different galaxies meet in space, the black holes become bigger and bigger

D. Some scientists think there’s one black hole in a galaxy, but others think there’re two.

64. From the second paragraph we can infer that ________.

A. a larger black hole pushes a smaller black hole away

B. a larger black hole pulls a smaller black hole toward it

C. the places of black holes are fixed, so we can see them clearly

D. a smaller black hole moves around a larger one because of radiation

65. According to the passage, astronomers think that there should be many black hole pairs because____________.

A. a black hole can produce light

B. black holes can attract one another

C. different black hole pairs come into being with the meeting of galaxies.

D. a big black hole can usually be divided into two small black holes

How to Read a Book

Books can be your best friends. 71 They can introduce you the things you may never see… But do you know how to read them in order to get the fullest enjoyment possible? The following tips should help.

1. Find a book. Look in the library or in one of the large bookstores. You could also ask friends if you could have a book at their book shelves. Search the selves until you find a book that looks good.Read the first page to see how it reads, and the cover text on the back of the book, if it has any. 72

2. Buy or borrow it and take it home. Do not start to read it until you have the time. 73 And set aside time to do nothing else but read, as it can be, at times, suspenseful(懸疑的), exciting and relaxing.

4. Start the book by turning the pages and really enjoy it. Do not think about anything else but what you are reading. Put yourself into the action or location in the story. Once you concentrate completely, it will be difficult to put the book down. And remember that reading is not running your eyes over a book. 75 However, if you need to read the book quickly, then you do not need to pay attention to every word.
