Now every aspect of her life is environmentally friendly, from her son Adam’s birthday parties to her clothing, and she recycles everything from empty pens to milk bottle tops. “Changing our family lifestyle to green has saved us around ￡11,000 every year, which has given us more financial stability,” Carrie says. “Living green has made us healthier and I feel younger now. It is fun seeing what you can make with unwanted or broken things. Growing your own food is great exercise, good for wildlife, and the food is much more nutritious and tastier.” “My concern for the way we humans are treating the planet was really roused when Adam was born. When he arrived, I suddenly had this huge, greater awareness of the kind of planet we’re bringing our children into though I learnt something about it in university.” She began going to talks, reading books, watching documentaries and attending green meetings in order to educate herself in the details of green living. Carrie set up the local campaign group Sussex Green Living six years after her son’s birth. Later, she gave up her high-powered job, as she ran a video company with her brother, to do her job full-time. Today, she organizes talks and workshops. She runs a repair cafe, where people can bring everything to be fixed. Her recycling program helps people reuse wastes. Toothpaste tubes, for example, which Carrie sends to the Philippines, are turned into purses by an organization. “My goal is to inspire more people to lead greener, more environmentally friendly lives, to enable us to live in greater harmony with nature, now and for future organizations. I achieve this using various Sussex Green Living communication programs and working with other organizations who have the same goals and values.” 1．How did Carrie feel about her environmentally friendly lifestyle? A．Unwanted. B．Unhealthy. C．Expensive. D．Economical. 2．Which of the following is true about Carrie? A．She made good preparations for living green. B．She recycled what people ignored for fun. C．She does daily exercise by growing food. D．She majored in planet protection in university. 3．What does Carrie rely on to make her achievements? A．Her repair cafe and workshops. B．Her own programs and others’ work. C．Her well-paid job and her brother’s support. D．Her independence of realizing her green dream. 4．When did Carrie begin to form her environmentally friendly lifestyle? A．After winning an award. B．After giving birth to her son. C．After being stuck in poverty. D．After attending green meetings B She’s dived in Iceland and Indonesia, gone hiking in Africa and climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. So when Cindy Abbott saw a television special on Qomolangma, she knew that would be her next adventure. Abbott, 51, contacted a coach about how to train for the climb. But five months later, she suddenly lost the vision in her left eye. Losing her eyesight was another symptom (症状) that doctors could not explain in her 15 years of living with Wegener’s granulomatosis, a rare disease that affects one in 30, 000 people. “The blindness was a good thing in a way because I got diagnosed ( 诊 断),” said Abbott, who lives in Orange County, California. There is no cure for Wegener’s granulomatosis. But her diagnosis did not mean the end to her dream of climbing Qomolangma. Instead, Abbott continued her training climbs. She decided to make her Qomolangma climb an awareness and fundraising campaign for Wegener’s granulomatosis and other rare diseases. “We have no drugs that are specific for our diseases,” said Abbott. “There’s no money in the drug companies to research to make a drug.” Abbott said this adventure is not just about the physical challenges. “When you get up on that mountain it’s only about half physical, and the rest mental, because of the suffering, the extreme days, the extreme environment and being away from your family,” said Abbott. “It was just the most amazing feeling,” said Abbot in a satellite phone call after reaching the peak. “You look out and know that you’re on top of the world.” Making her way down was even more treacherous than reaching the top. Sight problems meant she climbed down the ice wall practically blind. And aside from that, she suffered only some minor injuries and frostbite (冻伤). Abbott returned to Southern California about a week after reaching the top of Qomolangma. But she won’t be home for long. Next up: taking her husband on a diving trip. 5．What do we know about Abbott when she was 51? A．She became blind in her left eye suddenly. B．She decided to be a professional adventurer. C．She was fired from her job as a climbing guide. D．She was invited to record a TV program on Qomolangma. 6．Why did Abbott decide to climb Qomolangma? A．To build friendships with other climbers. B．To draw public attention to rare diseases. C．To realize her husband’s childhood dream. D．To carry out research on Wegener’s granulomatosis. 7．What does the underlined word “treacherous” mean in paragraph 8? A．Exciting. B．Important. C．Boring. D．Dangerous. 8．Which of the following words can best describe Abbott? A．Brave and honest. B．Humorous and friendly. C．Positive and strong-minded. D．Knowledgeable and nature-loving. 四、完形填空 The world always makes way for the dreamer. When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziglar.

So when Cindy Abbott saw a television special on Qomolangma, she knew that would be her next adventure. Abbott, 51, contacted a coach about how to train for the climb. But five months later, she suddenly lost the vision in her left eye. Losing her eyesight was another symptom (症状) that doctors could not explain in her 15 years of living with Wegener’s granulomatosis, a rare disease that affects one in 30, 000 people. “The blindness was a good thing in a way because I got diagnosed ( 诊 断),” said Abbott, who lives in Orange County, California. There is no cure for Wegener’s granulomatosis. But her diagnosis did not mean the end to her dream of climbing Qomolangma. Instead, Abbott continued her training climbs. She decided to make her Qomolangma climb an awareness and fundraising campaign for Wegener’s granulomatosis and other rare diseases. “We have no drugs that are specific for our diseases,” said Abbott. “There’s no money in the drug companies to research to make a drug.” Abbott said this adventure is not just about the physical challenges. “When you get up on that mountain it’s only about half physical, and the rest mental, because of the suffering, the extreme days, the extreme environment and being away from your family,” said Abbott. “It was just the most amazing feeling,” said Abbot in a satellite phone call after reaching the peak. “You look out and know that you’re on top of the world.” Making her way down was even more treacherous than reaching the top. Sight problems meant she climbed down the ice wall practically blind. And aside from that, she suffered only some minor injuries and frostbite (冻伤). Abbott returned to Southern California about a week after reaching the top of Qomolangma. But she won’t be home for long. Next up: taking her husband on a diving trip. 5．What do we know about Abbott when she was 51? A．She became blind in her left eye suddenly. B．She decided to be a professional adventurer.

And aside from that, she suffered only some minor injuries and frostbite (视力问题意味着她在下降冰壁时几乎是盲目的。除了这一点，她还遭受了一些轻微的伤害和冻伤。)”可知，对Abbott来说，下山比上山更危险。treacherous意为“有潜在危险的”。practically几乎; aside from ... 除……之外。故选D项。 8．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The blindness was a good thing in a way、第四段中的But her diagnosis did not mean the end to her dream of climbing Qomolangma. Instead, Abbott continued her training climbs (失明在某种程度上是一件好事。但是，她的诊断并不意味着她攀登珠穆朗玛峰的梦想结束。相反，艾博特继续她的训练攀登。)”以及最后一段中的“But she won’t be home for long.
