Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
Until recently, hunting for treasure from shipwrecks was mostly fantasy; with recent technological
advances, however, the search for sunken treasure has become more popular as a legitimate endeavor. This has
caused a debate between those wanting to salvage the wrecks and those wanting to preserve them.
Treasure hunters are spurred on by the thought of finding caches of gold coins or other valuable objects on a
sunken ship. One team of salvagers, for instance, searched the wreck of the RMS Republic, which sank outside
the Boston harbor in 1900. The search party, using side-scan sonar, a device that projects sound waves across
the ocean bottom and produces a profile of the sea floor, located the wreck in just two and a half days. Before
the use of this new technology, such searches could take months or years. The team of divers searched the
wreck for two months, finding silver tea services, crystal dinnerware, and thousands of bottles of wine, but they
did not find the five and a half tons of American Gold Eagle coins they were searching for.
Preservationists focus on the historic value of a ship. They say that even if a shipwreck's treasure does not
have a high monetary value, it can be an invaluable source of historic artifacts that are preserved in nearly mint
condition. But once a salvage team has scoured a site, much of the archaeological value is lost. Maritime
archaeologists who are preservationists worry that the success of salvagers will attract more treasure-hunting
expeditions and thus threaten remaining undiscovered wrecks. Preservationists are lobbying their state
lawmakers to legally restrict underwater searches and unregulated salvages. To counter their efforts, treasure
hunters argue that without the lure of gold and million-dollar treasures, the wrecks and their historical artifacts
would never be recovered at all.
Question 71: What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Searching for wrecks is much easier with new technologies like side-scan sonar.
B. Maritime archaeologists are concerned about the unregulated searching of wrecks.
