第三部分閱讀理解（共兩節，滿分40分）
第一節（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）（A）In the age of reality television, success isn’t the only way to the public eye. Failure can also create fame, just like William Hung, 21, a native of Hong Kong.
Hung recently has made an agreement with US-based entertainment firms Koch Records and Fuse Music Network. They will publish a full-length record, titled “The True Idol” on April 6.
The idol is a civil engineering student at the University of California at Berkeley. He did a version（改寫本）of Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs”on the television show “American Idol 3”, on January 27. The Fox TV singing contest searches for pop stars among ordinary people. In the case of Hung, however, his act was so bad that the judges cut him off in mid-act.
Hung’s response?
“I have already given my best, so I have no regrets at all. ” That’s good, because any common person would have found plenty to regret: the off-key singing; the blue Hawaiian shirt worn with pants pulled up too high; the terrible dancing; the hips jerking（搖擺）to a beat that did not belong to the song, maybe not even to this planet. It was, by all accounts, bad. But, it was this very bad act that sold well.
Marc Juris, president of Fuse, explained it this way: “Every one of us is happily guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with complete freedom, completely off-key and completely unworried. That’s what William did and immediately won the hearts of Americans. ”
Whatever it is, for the moment it’s big. Three websites devoted to Hung have gone up on the Internet in the past few weeks. Versions of his performance have been remixed with hip hop and techno music and have made it to the top 10 request list at a Chicago radio station.
So, what does Hung think of this?
“There were all these people saying things about me. A lot were saying I was very courageous and that I was great on the show, but some didn’t have much respect for me and some were kind of mean. ”
Now, he says he’s not so sure whether to distance himself from the glamour（魅力）or to accept it. Returning to normal hasn’t been easy.
56. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Sometimes an idol behaves quite foolishly.
B. Hung’s performance attracted the public eye.
C. How an unsuccessful person became famous.
D. Success sometimes does not require hard work.
57. Hung was popular in America for all the following reasons EXCEPT ________.

e. Three websites put Hung’s funny performance on the Internet.
A. d, b, e, c, a
B. a, c, d, b, e
C. a, d, b, c, e
D. d, b, a, e, c
59. Why was Hung able to win the hearts of Americans?
A. His success was based on his own hard work.
B. He attracted people’s attention in the contest.
C. He was good-looking though he didn’t sing well.
D. His character was completely different from other idols.

The crowd cheered and cheered. The man with the horn
waved and smiled his great, happy smile. “More!
More! ”
cried the crowd. And Louis Armstrong took his horn and began
to play again. Here he was in England. Now a famous man, he was rich. He knew many important people. Wherever he went, people knew his name. They wanted to hear his music. As Louis played the sad, slow songs, he thought of his home in New Orleans. He lived there as a boy. How many years ago it was?
It was a busy, exciting city. But Louis’ family was very poor. He went to work to help his mother. He also went to school. One of Louis’ teachers asked him to be in the school band. “This horn is yours until you leave our school, ” his teacher said. Louis’ music was jazz and he loved it. He remembered all the music he heard. He didn’t learn to read music until he was a man.
When he left school, he played in many bands. He loved his work and people loved him. They knew he had a wonderful talent. Louis played on the boats that sailed up and down the river. He played in little towns and in big cities. Louis’s horn had as many sounds as ten horns—sometimes slow and sweet; sometimes fast and hot, high and low. His music was always strong and exciting. “He does make wonderful music, ” said the man who listened happily. “Yes, ” said another man, “he makes that horn speak. ”Then the music ended and the crowd cheered. Louis Armstrong spoke with tears in his eyes, “I think, my friends, you can listen to as much jazz as I can play. I thought jazz was my music, but now I understand it is ours. Isn’t it beautiful how music brings us together? ”
