READING COMPREHENSION (10 pts)
Choose the item (A, B, C or D) that best completes
the unfinished statement about the passage.
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 thought of
finding catches 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 1909. 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 45 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.
Preservations focus on historic value of a
ship. They say that even if a ship wreck'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.
