[对应学生用书P527] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2023·广东六校联考)The idea of climbing Mt.Qomolangma disgusted me.The mountain came to represent the opposite of everything that I loved and respected about climbing.What had once been the final mountain climbing goal became the focus of a commercial guiding industry.Over the years，the crowds at Base Camp grew，leaving behind tons of trash.Whenever I was asked whether I'd climb Mt.Qomolangma，my answer was always the same：not interested. That was probably where my personal Mt.Qomolangma story would have ended，were it not for an old friend and his obsession(迷恋)with one of the greatest mysteries.In 1999，Thom Pollard began to explore and found the remains of George Mallory，the celebrated British climber who disappeared while he was attempting to be the first to climb Mt.Qomolangma.But Mallory's partner，Sandy Irvine，and the camera he had likely carried，were not found.The mountain climbing world has been wondering whether they might have reached the top in 1924. Pollard's story moved me.I began to pack for the climb and expected that our advanced equipment would make it manageable，perhaps easy.I was wrong.On the highest point on the planet，I was more tired than I'd ever been in any climbing.Along the way，I continuously tipped_my_hat，not just to Mallory and Irvine but to anyone who has the drive to push himself or herself up this route.My search was in vain，but I began to reconsider Mt.Qomolangma. I witnessed many climbers，who were much more than just self­centered tourists.We shared route information，weather forecasts，and family photos—all united around a common goal. I went to Mt.Qomolangma to seek Irvine.But in the end，I found something more difficult to get：the spirit that Irvine and Mallory shared.It was hiding in plain sight，right where it has always been：inside the brave souls who risk so much to follow in storied adventurers' footsteps up Mt.Qomolangma. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。在Thom Pollard的激励下，作者开始攀登珠穆朗玛峰，但他发现这要比他想象中难。在攀登的过程中，作者感悟到了更重要的东西，并对那些冒着巨大风险追随传奇探险家的脚步而攀登珠穆朗玛峰的勇敢攀登者表达了钦佩之情。 1．What is the main reason why the author hated climbing Mt.Qomolangma? A．He changed his climbing goal. B．Mt.Qomolangma was seriously polluted by trash. C．Mt.Qomolangma became an industry to make money. D．The mountain was too crowded with climbers. 解析　C　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“What had once been the final mountain climbing goal became the focus of a commercial guiding industry”可知，曾经的最终登山目标成了商业向导行业的焦点。由此可知，作者讨厌攀登珠穆朗玛峰是因为它变成了一个赚钱的行业。故选C。 2．Why did the author climb Mt.Qomolangma later? A．Because he desired to challenge himself. B．Because he got motivated by Thom Pollard. C．Because his old friend persuaded him to climb again. D．Because he wanted to follow the footsteps of Mallory and Irvine. 解析　B　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Pollard's story moved me”可知，Pollard的故事打动了作者。由此可知，作者后来攀登珠穆朗玛峰是受到了Thom Pollard的激励。故选B。 3．What does the underlined phrase “tipped my hat” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Expressed my gratitude. B．Proved my determination. C．Relieved the tiredness. D．Showed my respect. 解析　D　词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“I began to pack for the...in any climbing”可知，作者本来以为先进的登山设备可以使攀登珠穆朗玛峰变得容易，但是事实证明，作者错了。在地球的最高点，作者感觉攀登珠穆朗玛峰比以往任何一次攀登都要累。再根据画线词后的“not just to Mallory and Irvine but to anyone who has the drive to push himself or herself up this route”可知，此处表示在攀登的过程中，作者一直在向Mallory、Irvine和所有有动力推动自己走上这条路的人致敬。故选D。 4．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．Admiration for the climbers. B．Concern about the risk. C．Confidence in the journey. D．Hope for Mt.Qomolangma's future. 解析　A　段落大意题。根据最后一段中的“It was hiding...footsteps up Mt.Qomolangma”可知，Irvine、Mallory所分享的这种精神隐藏在显而易见的地方，就在它一直存在的地方：在那些冒着巨大风险追随传奇探险家的脚步而攀登珠穆朗玛峰的勇敢灵魂里。由此可推断，作者在最后对那些冒着巨大风险追随传奇探险家的脚步而攀登珠穆朗玛峰的勇敢攀登者表达了钦佩之情。故选A。 B (2024·嘉兴测试)Some penguins(企鹅)adapt their calls to become more similar to their partners over time，an ability that was previously known in only a few species，including humans. Luigi Baciadonna at the University of Turin，Italy，and his coworkers recorded African penguins from three different colonies(群体)over three years，and also observed the behavioral patterns of one of the colonies to see which penguins were partners or friendly. They then analyzed specific vocal(嗓音的)calls，which the penguins made when they were alone or trying to keep track of their friends.They compared four distinct vocal signatures such as the frequency of the calls.The signatures became more similar over time for penguins that were partners or in the same colony，and for penguins that heard more of each other's calls. This adaptation could make it easier for penguins to find their partners and friends in a colony.“Imagine that you are in a pub，you are with your friends and your environment is quite noisy，”says Baciadonna.“What you do is try to talk in a certain way so that your communication is more effective.” The ability to adapt calls in response to the environment，known as vocal accommodation，is a key part of vocal learning，a more complex set of skills such as producing new sounds through learning.Identifying which species display vocal accommodation could provide clues to how vocal learning developed.Baciadonna and his team also propose that this accommodation could help with group harmony and social bonds between individual penguins. The distance of penguins from humans on the evolutionary tree suggests that vocal accommodation could be common to many species，but a lot more data needs gathering first.“There could be a huge variety of different species that are able to adapt their calls slightly，but we don't know that yet，”says Sara Torres Ortiz at the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。随着时间的推移，一些企鹅会调整它们的叫声，使之与它们的伴侣更加相似，这种能力有助于建立社会关系。 5．What does the underlined word “signatures”mean in paragraph 3? A．Effects. B．Characteristics. C．Sources. D．Adjustments. 解析　B　词义猜测题。本段中的“specific vocal(嗓音的)calls”和“compared four distinct”以及“such as the frequency of the calls”是解题的关键，语境为他们分析了企鹅在独处或试图与朋友保持联系时发出的特定叫声，他们比较了四种不同的声音特征，如呼叫的频率。B项与画线词意思最为接近。故选B。 6．What is the intention of the quotes from Baciadonna in paragraph 4? A．To explain the reason why penguins adapt their calls. B．To highlight the role communication plays in social life. C．To prove humans' ability to recognize each other's voices. D．To stress the difference between human and animal sounds. 解析　A　细节理解题。根据第四段内容尤其是第一句话“This adaptation could make it easier for penguins to find their partners and friends in a colony”可知，引用Baciadonna的话的目的是解释企鹅调整自己的叫声是为了更容易地在一个群体中找到它们的伴侣和朋友，故选项A正确。且第一句中的adaptation与选项A中的adapt相呼应。故选A。 7．What remains to be explored according to Sara Torres Ortiz? A．Whether penguins can promote group harmony. B．Whether all species can adapt to the environment. C．Whether more species display vocal accommodation. D．Whether penguins and humans are similar in vocal learning. 解析　C　细节理解题。根据最后一段Sara Torres Ortiz所说的话“There could be a huge...but we don't know that yet”可知，Sara Torres Ortiz认为可能还有很多物种能够轻微地调整它们的叫声，只是我们还不知道，所以有待于我们去探索，故选项C正确。故选C。 8．What is the main idea of the text? A．Vocal learning involves a complex set of skills. B．Vocal accommodation helps build up social bonds. C．Penguins produce similar sounds even in different colonies. D．Penguins adapt their accents to sound more like their partners. 解析　B　主旨大意题。本文通过对企鹅改变声音的研究，表明了声音上的适应有助于建立社会关系。故选B。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2023·武汉联考)At the age of 41，I finally got to live my childhood dream.
