On the face of it, telescopes and data bases sound like very different things. Telescopes sit on the top of mountains, and are pointed at the skies data bases sit on computer hard disks, humming away and going no where. Yet they have something in common; both allow astronomers to explore the universe. Modern telescopes are highly automated pieces of machinery equipped with digital sensors that produce reams of observational data. Such data can be stored, processed and distributed just like other digital information. This means it is no longer necessary for an astronomer actually to visit a telescope to make observation.
      Telescopes and data bases complement each other for the astronomer
      Telescopes and data bases are both becoming relevant for the astronomer
      Telescopes and data bases have nothing in common for the astronomer
      Telescopes and Data bases can be confusing to the astronomer

58.  Modern data base 'Produce reams of observational data"
      Data bases produce lot of information
      Data bases are packed with paper
      Data bases create information instantly
      Data basses are of limited use in storing information
59.        The contemporary astronomer needs to look at the sky from a mountain top
      The contemporary astronomer needs a telescope to explore the universe
      contemporary astronomer needs a telescope equipped with digital sensors to explore the universe
      contemporary astronomer needs a telescope equipped with digital sensors to explore the universe
60.  A good title for the passage will be —
      Telescope and exploration of the universe
      Digital telescope and exploration of the universe
      Astronomers and exploration of the universe
