As a kid, I read the adventures of Robin Lee Graham, a traveller exploring the sea alone, in the pages of National Geographic and, later, in Graham's book, Dove.However, it wasn't until about 20 years ago, well into my adulthood, that I took up sailing in a serious way.I've made voyages in fair and stormy weather, on my own boats and those of my friends, and ranging from nearshore day sails to blue-water passages. Still, I've made plenty of mistakes.While living in Asia, a sailing friend and I set off across the South China Sea and intended to get to Thailand, only to be pushed by a late-season typhoon that forced us to make landfall in Vietnam, glad to be alive. Years later, my wife and I lived aboard our 37-foot ship, Symbiosis, while we saved enough to take a two-year leave from our jobs to journey down the U．S.Atlantic coast and through the Bahamas and the Caribbean.We visited many places that never see ships or airplanes and that are nearly impossible to reach anyway other than at the helm (舵柄) of a small boat.But boats are expensive and time-consuming.After returning from the Caribbean a few years ago, we decided to sell Symbiosis, resolving instead to sail only “other people's boats”．It didn't last, though.A few months ago, we found a good deal on a smaller sailboat—easier to maintain but still capable of some short offshore journeys.I think we'll name her Talisman. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己对航海的热爱。 1．What would the author do on summer weekends as a kid? A．He would help his father build Talisman. B．He would sail with his father and his sister. C.He would explore northeast Indiana in a car. D．He would bring human civilization to sailing. 答案：B 2 3 1 4 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“My father liked sailing and built them.My older sister and I were stuffed into a car nearly every summer weekend until my late teens to make the trip from northeast Indiana to the south shore of Lake Erie in Ohio...through the week.”可知，作者小时候会在夏天的周末与父亲和姐姐一起航海。故选B。 2 3 1 4 2．What can we learn about the book Dove? A．It has something to do with exploring the sea. B．It was published in National Geographic. C．It is the most famous work by Graham. D．It was an inspiration for the author's writing. 答案：A 2 3 1 4 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“As a kid, I read the adventures of Robin Lee Graham, a traveller exploring the sea alone...”可推断，这本书与海上探索有关。故选A。 2 3 1 4 3．Why did the author sell his ship Symbiosis? A．It didn't function well. B．He couldn't afford to maintain it. C．He found a better one to replace it. D．It was damaged seriously during a storm. 答案：B 2 3 1 4 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“But boats are expensive and time-consuming.After returning from the Caribbean a few years ago, we decided to sell Symbiosis, resolving instead to sail only ‘other people's boats’．”可知，Symbiosis是昂贵的，也是耗时的。由此可知，作者付不起保养的钱。故选B。 2 3 1 4 4．What is the author's main purpose in writing the text? A．To show his passion for sailing. B．To stress the influence of adventures on him. C．To discuss the problems of sailing on the sea. D．To share his success in exploring the world. 答案：A 2 3 1 4 写作意图题。根据第一段中的“And it is why I'm really into sailing.(这就是我喜欢航海的原因)”和下文的描述可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是通过记叙自己的过往，展现出他对航海的激情。故选A。 2 3 1 4 B “Is this making us old or keeping us young？” my husband asked as he lifted the three heavy backpacks from the canoe. “I don't know，” I replied.The heat and mosquitoes were getting to me, and I was wondering whether we were crazy to have started a canoe trip during the hottest week of the summer.But even in fall, our canoe trips—while certainly cooler—are no easier. I've always loved getting away from civilization to enjoy the peace of nature, to be on a news blackout (封锁) and to reflect on the past year and the year to come, which is why we've been doing this regularly for most of the 38 years we've been together. Now as we're getting older, it's getting harder—aching knees, aching feet and aching backs.So, we're changing our habits.Instead of extreme white-water trips in the far north, we're going on lake trips closer by.Instead of pulling on the heavy pack myself and rising from a sitting position, my husband lifts it up while I thread my arms through the belts.Along the way, I might stop to admire the green plants beside the path or feel the soft surfaces of the moss, and my husband is usually waiting at the other end, wondering why it's taken me so long.During the night, we no longer stay up late to see the stars.Instead, we now get into the tent by 9 p．m.—exhausted after one day's hard work—and drift into sleep listening to birds' sorrowful call. Over the years, my canoe-tripping experience has evolved to focus less on the physical and more on the abstract things.Like a solar battery, I store up the energy I absorb from the forest, rocks and waters to help me through the rest of the year.The rhythm of paddling becomes a process of deep thinking rather than an endurance test. “How long can we continue doing this？” asked my husband at the end of the last trip. “I don't know，” I answered, but inside, I thought, “As long as our bodies and minds hold out, I hope forever.” [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是作者喜欢和丈夫一起进行独木舟旅行，感受大自然的宁静之美。随着年龄的增长，作者改变了旅行的习惯，较少关注物质，而更多关注感受。 5．According to the text, the author and her husband's canoe trips ． A．were difficult to complete B．made the couple crazy C．made the couple look younger than their age D．became dangerous because of the summer heat 答案：A 6 7 5 8 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The heat and mosquitoes...while certainly cooler—are no easier.”可知，作者和她丈夫的独木舟旅行很难完成。故选A。 6 7 5 8 6．By writing “we no longer stay up late to see the stars” in paragraph 4, what does the author wish to show ?
