Later, little by little, his father seemed to ride more slowly. He couldn’t stand his father’s speed, so he asked his father to ride in front to him and wanted to see if his father could ride faster.
However, his father always said, “You’d better ride in front of me as ever, so that I can follow you more quickly.” At that time, he felt he had trouble understanding his father well. Then, slowly, his father became a dot (点) behind him until finally out of sight.
In the end, one day he watched a program on TV. It asked, “In Africa, when the zebra group migrates (迁徙), will the adult male zebra walk in the front or in the back?” Naturally, he chose the front because he thought the strongest life should go forward to lead the successors (继承者).

Passage 3
For the world’s climbers, Qomolangma, the world’s highest mountain, is a hard test. However, ________.
In 2022, a Sherpa (夏尔巴人) named Kami Rita set a new world record. He reached the top of Qomolangma for the 26th time!
The Sherpas live in the high mountains of the Himalayas. Most of them live in Nepal (尼泊尔). Besides, there are also some Sherpa villages in China. In people’s eyes, they are hard-working, peaceful and brave. Sherpas are famous for guiding climbers to the mountaintop. They help climbers put up tents, carry bags and find their ways to the top of Qomolangma. They were born to be climbers.
If you go up to about 3, 500 meters, you might get a headache. Because there isn’t enough oxygen (氧气) at the higher elevation (海拔). But Sherpas don’t get sick. They are quite used to the height because they have lived in the world’s highest place for years. Their hearts and lungs (肺) are stronger than ours. In 1953, two people reached the top of Qomolangma for the first time. One of them was a Sherpa man.
Each year, hundreds of tourists get to the Sherpas’s hometown. There the Sherpas give them a few lesson in mountaineering (登山运动), and then they climb up the mountain with Sherpa guides. Sherpas believe the highest mountaintop is holy (神圣的). They show great respect for it. But some climbers don’t think so. They throw rubbish on the mountain. Twenty Sherpas once made a team to pick up the rubbish.
24. Which of the following can be put in “________” ?
A. Sherpa villages are in the high mountains. B. Sherpas are good at climbing the mountain.
C. it is hard for climbers to reach the mountaintop. D. many climbers are afraid to climb the mountain.
25. What do Sherpas do for the climbers?
①Set up tents. ②Carry bags. ③Provide oxygen. ④Guide them to Qomolangma.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②④
26. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. The team. B. The village. C. The record. D. The mountaintop.
27. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. The Holy Mountain—Qomolangma B. Sons of Snow Mountains—Sherpas
C The Highest Village—Sherpa Village D. The Bravest People—Climbers of Qomolangma
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了雪山之子——夏尔巴人。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据“For the world’s climbers, Qomolangma, the world’s highest mountain, is a hard test.”以及前后转折关系可知,虽然攀登珠穆朗玛峰是一个严峻的考验,但是夏尔巴人很擅长攀登这座世界最高峰,因此B项 “夏尔巴人擅长登山” 符合语境。故选B。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据“They help climbers put up tents, carry bags and find their ways to the top of Qomolangma.”可知,他们帮助登山者搭起帐篷,背着包,帮助登山者找到登上珠穆朗玛峰的路。①②④符合文意。故选D。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Sherpas believe the highest mountaintop is holy. They show great respect for it.”可知,夏尔巴人认为山顶是神圣的,他们对山顶表现出极大的尊敬,此处”it”指的是山顶。故选D。
【27题详解】
最佳标题题。根据“The Sherpas live in the high mountains of the Himalayas.”及全文内容可知,本文主要介绍了雪山之子——夏尔巴人的相关信息,因此B选项 “雪山之子——夏尔巴人” 最适合做本文的标题。故选B。
