Since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay climbed Mount Everest, Mount Qomolangma's peak is no longer a lonely place and is turning into a trash heap.
So far，a large number of climbers have successfully reached the peak.And they have complained about waiting for hours in the bottlenecks (狭窄路段) on the way to the peak, a situation that isn't just uncomfortable—it's cold and windy up there—but downright dangerous. If bad weather strikes, climbers can die.
As a matter of fact, the dangerous crowds aren't the only problem on Mount Qomolangma. All those climbers need to bring a lot of gear—and much of it ends up being left on the mountain, sometimes even the peak itself. Mount Qomolangma is becoming the world's largest rubbish dump. Here's mountaineer Mark Jenkins' writing in National Geographic about the state of Mount Qomolangma, “The two standard routes, the Northeast Ridge and the Southeast Ridge, are badly polluted with oxygen cans and torn tents everywhere.”
But the good news is that some mountaineers are taking on the work to clean up Mount Qomolangma.Mountaineer Paul Thelen and his friend Eberhard Schaaf are part of the annual Eco Everest Expedition，which has been cleaning up rubbish from base camps to the peak since 2008.
Some of that rubbish is even being used for a higher purpose. As part of the Mt. Everest 8848 Art Project, a group of 15 artists from Nepal collected 1.5 tons of garbage brought down the mountain by climbers.They've transformed the cans and oxygen tanks—and in one case, part of the remains of a helicopter—into 74 pieces of art that have already gone on exhibition in Nepal's capital. Part of the profit from sales will go to an association, which has helped collect tons of rubbish on the slopes of the mountain.
【语篇解读】　文章介绍了由于很多人攀登珠穆朗玛峰，现在那里正在变成一个垃圾堆。然而好消息是一些登山者正主动承担起清理珠穆朗玛峰上的垃圾的责任。
1．What do we learn about the bottlenecks on the way to Mount Qomolangma's peak?
A．They are relatively safe.
B．They are often crowded.
C．They are very easy to pass.
D．They are sites of base camps.
B　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“And they have complained about waiting for hours in the bottlenecks on the way to the peak，a situation that isn't just uncomfortable”可知，攀登者在通过去珠穆朗玛峰峰顶的狭窄路段时要等很长时间，故可知狭窄路段经常很拥挤。故选B。]

A．Equipment for climbing mountains.
B．The food climbers brought onto the mountain.
C．Some important machines used in the bottlenecks.
D．Some rubbish found on the mountain.
A　[词义猜测题。结合语境并根据第三段中的“The two standard routes，the Northeast Ridge and the Southeast Ridge，are badly polluted with oxygen cans and torn tents everywhere”可知，两个线路都完全被氧气罐和撕破的帐篷弄脏了，所以可以推测画线词指的是登山者用的登山设备。故选A项。]

A．created works of art using rubbish from Mount Qomolangma
B．were employed to recycle the rubbish
C．climbed Mount Qomolangma and collected 1. 5 tons of trash

A．Economical Travel Proves Successful
B．Mount Qomolangma Has Hope of Being Clean
C．How to Protect Yourself on Mount Qomolangma

B　[主旨大意题。根据文章的内容，尤其是第一段“Since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay climbed Mount Everest，Mount Qomolangma's peak is no longer a lonely place and is turning into a trash heap.”和第四段中的“But the good news is that some mountaineers are taking on the work to clean up Mount Qomolangma”可知，由于很多人攀登上珠峰，随处丢弃用完的装备，现在那里正在变成一个垃圾堆，但是有些人正主动承担清理珠峰垃圾的责任，使珠峰变干净。故选B项。]

What's life like on a deserted island? Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona decided to find out.
The adventurous senator took a vacation from Capitol Hill and went on a four­day Robinson Crusoe style holiday with his two teenage sons to a remote，deserted island in the North Pacific Ocean.
The senator and his sons，15­year­old Tanner and 13­year­old Dallin，traveled 5，200 miles from Phoenix，Arizona to the island of Biggarenn.They didn't carry any food or water.
The island is part of the Marshall Islands.It offered no basic supplies，so the Flakes had to catch and cook their own food and purify their water.Their diet was made up of coconuts，crabs and fish.They caught the crab and fish themselves and cooked the food over an open fire started with a magnifying glass (放大镜)．
The Flakes brought along a lobster trap (龙虾夹) in the hope of having some delicious treats，but lost it within the first few hours after it was attacked by a shark.They also carried two pumps to remove salt from ocean water.It took them hours each night to pump for just a few gallons of fresh water.
One of the most memorable moments of the trip，the father said，was when he and his 15­year­old son were almost caught by sharks after spearing (叉起) a fish in the ocean.
Still，it was quite an enjoyable holiday for them.“For a dad it was a wonderful thing.No video games around，no television，no disturbance，no texting，” Flake recalled.

7．According to the passage，the Flakes' holiday is ．
A．adventurous but interesting
B．exciting but painful
C．meaningless but enjoyable
D．boring but memorable
A　[推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段可知，他们差点儿被鲨鱼吃了，这说明非常惊险。再根据最后一段中的“Still，it was quite an enjoyable holiday for them.”可知，他们的假期过得惊险而有趣。]
C
During the 15th century，spices(香料)from India were very popular in Europe，however，the only way to travel from Europe to India was over land.This was a long and expensive trip.The King of Portugal realized if he could find a way to get to India by sailing on the ocean，he would become rich by trading spices in Europe.An explorer(探险家)by the name of Bartolomeu Dias had discovered the Cape of Good Hope at the tip of Africa.It was thought that there may be a way around the Cape and to the northeast towards India.However，many were skeptical and thought that the Indian Ocean did not connect with the Atlantic Ocean.
Vasco da Gama，who was born in 1460s to a wealthy Portuguese family in Sines，was given a fleet of ships by the king and told to discover a sea route(路线)around Africa to India.He was also told to look for other trading possibilities along the way.
Vasco da Gama left on his first voyage(航行)from Lisbon，Portugal，with four ships and 170 men on July 8，1497.Gama and his men rounded the southern tip of Africa at the Cape of Good Hope on November 22.They then headed north up the coast of Africa.They stopped at trading ports along the way including Mombasa and Malindi.At Malindi (about 120km northeast of Mombasa)，they picked up a local pilot who knew the direction to India.With the help of a monsoon wind they were able to cross the Indian Ocean and arrive in Calicut，India in less than a month (on May 20，1498)．At Calicut，Vasco ran into serious trouble when trying to trade.He had brought little of value in his ships.This made the local traders doubtful of him and very soon he had to leave.The voyage back was disastrous.Around half of his men died from scurvy(坏血病)as the trip back took much longer because of the winds not blowing in his favor.However，when he returned home，he was still a hero.He had found the much needed trade route to India.
【语篇解读】　本文是记叙文，文章介绍了葡萄牙探险家达·伽马第一次航行到印度的原因及过程。
8．What does the underlined word“skeptical”in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Worried.　　　　　 B．Doubtful.
C．Hopeful. D．Supportive.
B　[词义猜测题。由第一段中的“there may be a way...towards India”和画线词后的“the Indian Ocean did not connect with the Atlantic Ocean”可知，因为许多人认为印度洋与大西洋不相连，所以他们对绕过好望角而到达印度的路线这一想法持怀疑态度。 ]

A．To take control of India.
B．To control the spice trade.
C．To find a trade route to India.
D．To bring back spices from India.
C　[细节理解题。第一段解释了葡萄牙国王派遣达·伽马出行的原因“find a way to get to India...trading spices in Europe”，再由第二段中的“told to discover a sea route around Africa to India”可知，达·伽马第一次航行到印度的目的是寻找一条贸易路线。]
10．Which is the correct route of Gama's first voyage to India?
A．Sines→the Cape of Good Hope→Mombasa→Malindi→Calicut.
B．Sines→the Cape of Good Hope→Malindi→Mombasa→Calicut.
C．Lisbon→the Cape of Good Hope→Malindi→Mombasa→Calicut.
D．Lisbon→the Cape　of Good Hope→Mombasa→Malindi→Calicut.
D　[细节理解题。由第三段描述达·伽马第一次从欧洲航海到印度的路线“left on his first voyage (航行)　from Lisbon...rounded...at the Cape of Good Hope...At Malindi (about 120km northeast of Mombasa)．..cross the Indian Ocean and arrive in Calicut”可知答案。]

A．Their trading was well­received.
B．Half of them got a serious illness.
C．They missed the best time to go back home.
D．They were considered unwelcome by the local traders.
D　[推理判断题。由第三段中的“He had brought little of value...doubtful of him”可知，到达Calicut之后，由于船上有价值的东西太少，因此达·伽马和他的船员们在那里不受当地商人的欢迎。]

At just ten, Selah Schneiter became the youngest person ever to climb El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. Selah was unaware that she was setting a record at the time.
“El Capitan was the mountain my wife Joy and I first climbed together，” Mike, Selah's father, said.“We fell in love while climbing.” After the couple married, they returned there to climb. They took Selah on her first trip to Yosemite when she was only two months old.
First asked if she'd try the Nose, the classic route most climbers take to reach the top of El Capitan, she declined. Then, she began to think about it more, and in 2018 she felt that she was able to make it.However，accomplishing the seemingly impossible climb requires more than simply deciding to go for it.Over the winter, Mike and Selah prepared for “the big decision”．
When it came time to the climb, Selah and Mike were joined by Mark Regier, a long­time family friend who had been part of the El Capitan team when Mike and Joy met. He was also the chief witness of their wedding.Doing such a climb with a ten­year­old，Regier considered it seriously. “Being a father myself，I must look after her well，” he said.At first he checked and double­checked everything she did, but after a while he was sure Selah knew what she was doing. Then they set off.
In the process, Selah showed fortitude．“It wasn't that frightening，” she said. “The only thing I ever got scared of was what would happen if I didn't do this.”She admitted to getting nervous at the foot of the mountain，but later she calmed herself and was comfortable being high.Eventually，she and her companions completed the 5­day climb successfully.
【语篇解读】　文章讲述了年仅10岁的Selah Schneiter成功攀登El Capitan，成为史上征服这座峭壁的最年轻的攀登者的故事。
12．What can we know about Mike?
A．He encouraged Selah to set a record.
B．He is closely connected with Yosemite.
C．He helped Selah decide to climb El Capitan.
D．He came across Joy at Regier's wedding.
B　[推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，Mike和妻子是在攀登El Capitan期间相爱的，二人结婚后又重回此地攀登El Capitan。因此Mike与Yosemite有很深的渊源。故选B。]
13．What was Mark Regier's initial attitude towards Selah's climbing the Nose?
A．Negative.　　　　　 B．Critical.
C．Cautious. D．Favourable.
C　[推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Doing such a climb with a ten­year­old，Regier considered it seriously”可知，起初Regier对Selah攀登持谨慎的态度。故选C。]
14．What does the underlined word “fortitude” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Scare. B．Relaxation.
C．Pride. D．Courage.
D　[词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“‘It wasn't that frightening，’she said...was comfortable being high”可知，Selah在山脚下时感到紧张，但后来她镇定下来，并且很享受身处高处的感觉。即攀登过程中她表现出了勇气和刚毅。故选D。]
15．What is the best title for the text?
A．Small Climber, Big Outcome
B．Selah Was a True Climber at Ten
C．El Capitan：A Best Place to Climb
D．Life Means Enjoying Climbing
A　[主旨大意题。通读全文，文章主要讲述了年仅10岁的Selah Schneiter成功攀登El Capitan，成为史上征服这座峭壁的最年轻的攀登者的故事。结合选项可知，A项“Small Climber，Big Outcome”生动形象且符合文章主旨。故选A。]

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
It was May 23, 2016. Arnot, the 32­year­old mountain guide, reached the top of Everest without the use of oxygen equipment. It was achieved after seven years, three previous 36.________(attempt)，and fourteen straight hours of climbing.
Arnot didn't start climbing 37.________ she was 19 years old. Money was tight in her family, and climbing mountains never 38.________(occur) to her.After graduating from college, Arnot 39.________(invite) by her friend to climb a mountain.“It totally changed my life，” said Arnot.“I always know that if you want something, you can achieve it, but knowing what you want is a whole different thing，”she said.“I am athletic but not 40.________(compete). After my first climbing, I knew 41.________(immediate) that mountains were what I want—as that was where I felt at home for the first time in my life.”
After that first climb, she devoted 42.________(she) to learning how to climb and move through mountains. It was during her second trip to Everest in 2009 43.________ she first set her sights on a no­oxygen attempt.However, while 44.________(hike) into Everest Base Camp that year, she hurt her leg and wasn't able to climb without oxygen. In 2013 she nearly made it 45.________ the top, but was forced to take oxygen at 8，504 meters while helping another climber.
【语篇解读】　本文介绍了攀登者Arnot的故事。
36．attempts　[考查名词复数。7年后，经过3次尝试和连续14个小时的攀登，Arnot在无氧气装置的情况下成功登顶了珠峰。根据空前的“three previous”可知，此处应用复数名词。attempt“尝试，努力”。]
37．until　[考查连词。Arnot直到19岁才开始登山。根据语境以及句子结构可知，此处是用until引导状语从句。“not...until”意为“直到……才”，为固定搭配。]
38．occurred　[考查时态。Arnot的家庭经济拮据，她从来没想过要去爬山。根据语境并结合全文可知，此处叙述的是发生在过去的事情，故用一般过去时。occur to sb.为固定用法，意为“被想到，出现在头脑中”。]
39．was invited　[考查时态和语态。大学毕业后，Arnot的朋友邀请她去爬山。根据语境并结合全文可知，此处应用一般过去时；又因为Arnot和invite之间为被动关系，所以空处应用被动语态。]
40．competitive　[考查形容词。根据语境以及分析句子结构可知，此处应用形容词作表语。competitive“努力竞争的，一心求胜的”。]
41．immediately　[考查副词。根据语境以及分析句子结构可知，空处修饰动词knew，故应用副词形式。]
42．herself　[考查代词。正是在第一次爬山之后，她全身心地投入到学习如何爬山和越过山峰。devote oneself to为固定搭配，意为“致力于，献身于”。]
43．that　[考查强调句型。2009年，第二次攀登珠峰期间，她第一次决心要做无氧尝试。分析句子结构可知，此处为强调句，其结构是“It is/was＋被强调的部分＋that/who＋其他成分”。本句强调句子的状语“during her second trip to Everest in 2009”，故填that。]
44．hiking　[考查非谓语动词。然而，在那一年攀登去珠峰大本营时，她伤了腿，没有氧气就无法攀登。分析句子结构可知，hike与she之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用动词­ing形式作状语。]
45．to　[考查介词。2013年，她几乎要成功(无氧)登顶，但在帮助另一名登山者时，她被迫在8 504米的高度吸氧。make it to为固定短语，意为“(在困难情况下)准时到达，获得成功”。]

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。It was 8 a．m.Kathy，a 25­year­old nurse，had just finished a 12­hour night shifts at a hospital.She was tired，but glad to be sailing along highway to where she lived.Although the local government had posted a snow alert(预警)，the calm grey sky convinced Kathy the drive would be safe.“I figured I'd be in bed in an hour，” she says.
Snow began when she was halfway home.Listening to the radio，Kathy learned the highway was closed because a tractor had slid off the road.She texted some friends and her mom，and tried not to sleep as she waited.
After a couple of hours，however，conditions worsened.Strong winds began rocking Kathy's car.She couldn't see anything outside，and snow was drifting up her doors.It was，she says，“a total white out and rows of cars and trucks.”
Late in the afternoon a police officer came and asked if she was in any difficulty.She said she was fine.She asked the police officer if there was any way to get past the trucks.“No，ma'am，” he answered.“You're not going anywhere.”
Once as it got dark，Kathy began to worry.She texted his brother Cris，telling him to drive snowmobiling buddy(雪地汽车) to get to the highway and find her.
As Cris rode slowly alongside the rows of cars and trucks，people would roll down their windows and ask for help.“I was the first person they'd seen in six hours.”He explained he was picking up his sister.He told them，“Nobody's coming and I can't take you.”
Near 10 p．m.Cris reached Kathy.He directed Kathy to pull her car onto the shoulder and asked her to get into his snowmobiling buddy.
As they headed for home，the fun started.About five kilometres into the journey，Cris made a mistake.What he thought was a shallow ditch(浅沟) turned out to be a deep trough(水槽)．Instead of coming out the other side，they just kept going down.They were trapped.And feathery snow was over their heads.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
At that moment，they had to take action and get out.
