Which of the following is NOT mentioned according to four advertisement?B“I’ve found the Titanic”As a boy, Robert Ballard liked to read about shipwrecks-especially the Titanic. "My lifelong dream was to find this great ship," he says.On August 31, 1985, Ballard's dream came true. With video cameras and an underwater robot, Ballard found the two main parts of Titanic nearly four kilometers beneath the sea. He also saw many sad reminders of Titanic's end, including a child's pair of shoes lying on the ocean floor. There were more than 1,500 deaths that night in 1912.Ballard reached the Titanic again in 1986 in a small submarine(潜水艇). He used a deep-sea robot-a "swimming eyeball"—to take photos inside the ship. When they saw the images, other people wanted to visit the shipwreck(遇难船).When Ballard returned in 2004, he found the ship in worse condition. Other explorers had taken away about 6,000 items, including jewelry, love letters, lamps, and even pieces of the ship. They believed the items should be moved to a safer place, but Ballard doesn't agree.Ballard believes that taking things from Titanic is like robbing a grave(墓). Instead, he hopes to put lights and cameras on Titanic. With this technology, people can see the shipwreck on a computer and remember the great ship. "As long as she needs protection," says Ballard, "Titanic will always be part of my life."( )36. What is the main idea of the reading?A. The story of the Titanic is very sad.B.

But modern baseball is truly an international game.Baseball began in the U.S. in the early 19th century. The first World Series was played in 1903. However, only American and Canadian teams played in the series. The first non-U.S. victory was by the Toronto Blue Jays in 1991.Since the early 1990s, managers of U.S. teams have brought several foreign players to the U.S. game. Today, about 30 percent of players in American baseball come from foreign countries, including Puerto Rico, Japan, South Korea, and the Dominican Republic.One of the first Asian players in the U.S. was Japanese pitcher Hideo Nomo. Nomo got a lot of attention from the media when he joined the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1995. Soon, many other U.S. teams were making contracts with players from other countries.Today, world-class baseball is available to more fans than ever before. In 1994, baseball became part of the Asian Games. In 2006, 16 teams from around the world took part in the first World Baseball Classic—an international series of professional baseball games. Finally, baseball has become a truly global pastime.( )41. Another title for the article could be ____________.A. The History of the World SeriesB. Baseball Has a Good YearC.
