Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2024·江淮十校联考)When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain — a fairly gentle 3,900-foot peak.I was overweight at the time and out of breath when I reached the summit.But I loved challenging myself.Soon I'd climbed nearly 100 peaks.My parents were happy I'd finally found a hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen.She and I drove to tackle 11,240-foot Mount Hood.It's safer to start winter climbs at night when there's less risk of the sun melting the snowpack.That day, we started at 3 a.m.At around 9 a.m., we reached an ice step.It was about three or four feet tall and sloped at a 75-degree angle.I volunteered to go first.I placed my left foot on the ice step.
I gained a sense of the ice when I stuck my ax and crampons (鞋底钉) into it, and it felt good.Confident I was safe, I put my full weight on it.Suddenly, I heard a crack, and as the snowpack became thinner, a whole piece of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game.I remember thinking, “This is it.You're done.”I stuck out my arms and legs, grabbing at anything.That stopped my rolling down the mountain, but I was still sliding. After a few seconds, I came to a stop on a shallow slope.
I asked myself: Where are you? Mount Hood.What's the date? December 30.Good.My brain was functioning.Then I checked my body to see where I was hurt.For the most part, I was fine, except that I was suffering from a sharp pain in my left leg.Later I'd learn that I'd broken my femur (大腿骨) and that the bone was slicing into my skin and muscle.
At the bottom of Mount Hood, I was loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital.The doctors told me it would be a year before I could climb again, but I was back on the trails within six months.

One critical reason for their success is that unlike many firms, Morelli Law has the experience, patience, and resources to pursue all difficult cases.Since founding the firm, Mr Morelli and his team have successfully dealt with an impressive list of outstanding cases in the industry.In fact, they have delivered more than a billion dollars on behalf of their clients.Impressive firm results include a $95 million settlement in a sexual discrimination case involving Aaron's Inc., as well as a $62 million settlement for Mark Perez, a construction worker who fell from a roof and suffered a brain injury.
When asked whether they would feel afraid when facing difficult opponents in court,“At my core, I'm a trial lawyer,” said Benedict Morelli.“Because of our experience and accomplishments in the courtroom, our opponents know that we're prepared to pursue the best result possible.Going to trial does not intimidate us.”
The firm is devoted to realizing its clients' goals both inside and outside of the courtroom.For example, in a drunk driving case, the firm worked with the client to strengthen New York laws that punish drunk drivers.This effort has made it easier for lawyers in New York to charge drunk drivers.Moreover, Mr Morelli and his team are also committed to helping those who have been wronged achieve the justice they deserve, no matter the difficulty of the circumstances.
Corporations are powerful actors in society and Mr Morelli and his team feel fortunate to be in a position to provide the highest level of service to their clients.
