阅读理解短文
One evening,Tom Peterson decided to go on a hike in the mountains near his home.He told his
family he'd be back by nightfall,so when he didn't return as expected,they became concerned.
At around 8 p.m.,they tried to reach him on his cell phone but received no response.Tom's
brother,Jack,decided to head to the trail (and look for him.When Jack arrived,he found
Tom's backpack on the side of the trail,but there was no sign of Tom himself.Tom's family
became even more anxious.His mother kept picturing him lost and alone,wondering if he was cold,
scared,or even injured.She felt helpless,knowing she couldn't protect her son.His father,on
the other hand,struggled to remain calm,reassuring his wife while silently fearing the worst.As
midnight approached,Tom's family decided it was time to call for professional help.The search
team arrived swiftly,equipped with flashlights and heat-sensitive cameras,and began combing the
trail.Tom,down the hill with an injured ankle,lay in the dark,battling waves of doubt.As the
cold night deepened,he questioned if anyone would find him,feeling small and defenceless against
the vast wilderness.He turned his flashlight on and off,hoping someone would notice the weak
light,holding on to the last bit of hope he had.Finally,at dawn,the team spotted him about
a mile from the main path.Seeing the rescuers approach,Tom's relief washed over him,and
his worries melted away.His family was overjoyed when they saw him,their worst fears replaced
by deep thankfulness and newfound appreciation for each other.Later,when asked about how he
made it through the long,dark hours alone,Tom shared that it was the thought of his family that
2
kept him going.For him,holding onto the hope of reuniting with them was his only choice in the
vast,lonely wilderness.

答案与逐题解析
正确答案:24-27BADA
24.B (She didn't know what was happening to Tom.)
考点:细节理解题
语境逻辑:根据文中“His mother kept picturing him lost and alone,.wondering if he was cold,
scared,or even injured.”可知,母亲不断想象汤姆可能的遭遇,却不知道他真实的情况,因此
感到无助。
选项辨析:A选项“无法加入搜寻”文中未提及;C选项“联系救援队困难”与“as midnight
approached.call for professional help”不符,家人是主动决定求助且救援队迅速到达;D选项
“担心山里寒冷天气”是母亲担忧的具体内容之一,并非无助的根本原因。B选项“不知道汤姻
发生了什么”最能概括母亲因信息缺失产生的无助感。
25.A (He injured his ankle.
考点:细节理解题
语境逻辑:文中明确提到“Tom,down the hill with an injured ankle,lay in the dark..”,可知
汤姆脚踝受伤导致他无法自行返回。
选项辨析:B选项“迷路”未在文中体现,他是在小径附近受伤:C选项“患重感冒”无中生
有;D选项“感到渺小无助”是心理感受,而非客观阻碍。A选项“脚踝受伤”是直接导致他
无法行动的原因。
26.D (He used his flashlight to signal for help.)
考点:细节理解题
语境逻辑:根据“He turned his flashlight on and off,hoping someone would notice the weak
light,holding on to the last bit of hope he had.”可知,汤姆通过开关手电简发出信号求救。
选项辨析:A选项“打电话给哥哥杰克”与“they tried to reach him on his cell phone but
received no response'”矛盾;B选项“试图爬上山”文中未提及;C选项“将背包留在小径旁”
是事故发生时的状态,并非主动求救行为。D选项“用手电筒发信号求助”符合原文描述的最
后努力。
27.A (Hope is the light in the darkest hour.
考点:主旨大意题
语境逻辑:故事中汤姆在困境中“holding on to the last bit of hope”,最终因救援队发现而获
救,且他提到“it was the thought of his family that kept him going”,体现了希望在绝望时刻
的重要性。
选项辨析:B选项“雨过天晴”侧重困境后的平静,未突出“希望”的核心作用;C选项“患
难见真情”强调友谊,与本文家庭主题无关:D选项“有志者事竞成”侧重意志力实现目标,而
文中汤姆的生存更依赖外部救援和内心希望。A选项“希望是黑暗时刻的光芒”最契合“依靠
希望坚持到获救”的主线。
