VI.简答题（共3小题，每小题2分，满分6分）
阅读下列短文，根据各小题的具体要求，简要回答问题。
A landmark agreement on non-stop cross-strait charter flights for the upcoming Chinese Lunar New Year holidays will see Taiwan business people working on the mainland and their families fly directly to and from Taipei and Kaohsiung for the first time in over 50 years. However, while the flights will be nonstop, they will still have to go through Hong Kong airspace .
With the agreement, the planes that will carry mainland-based Taiwan business people home and back will start to take off on January 29, with a total of 48 round-trip charter flights continuing through to February 20.
Considered to be a breakthrough in cross-strait relations and a step toward the end of the ban imposed on direct air links in 1949, when the People’s Republic of China was founded , the agreement signed this year has three advantages over the charter flights for mainland-based Taiwan business people allowed in 2003.
First, it is the first time that two-way and nonstop charter flights are allowed across the Taiwan Strait in 56 years, with six airlines from both Taiwan and the mainland involved . In 2003, only Taiwan airlines were allowed to be engaged in the charter flights .
Second, it is also the first time that the charter flights will go directly to Taiwan without stopping in Hong Kong. By comparison in 2003, the charter flights were not allowed to fly directly between Taiwan and the mainland. Instead, they had to make stops at a third destination, usually Hong Kong or Macao stretching a one-hour flight to about four hours .
Third, the charter flights this year will connect Taipei and Kaohsiung with Beijing , Shanghai and Guangzhou , among which , Kaohsiung , Beijing and Guangzhou were not on the list of charter flights in 2003.
73．Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “ direct” .
74．How do the chart flights go?（回答词数不超过8个词）。
75．What is the best title of the article? （回答词数不超过6个单词）。
