Alan Arnette，5.who climbed Qomolangma in 2011，held the idea that climbing brought 6.into focus what was important to you in your life. He believed that there were a thousand reasons to turn around and only one to keep going. He added，“You have to focus on 7.the one reason that’s most important and unique to you. It depends on the physical and mental 8.toughness (tough) to push when you want to give up.” With the majority of attempts 9.resulting (result)either in total success or failure，is there a scientific reason？Recent studies indicate that risk-taking may be part of human nature. Besides，people enjoy climbing because they expect to benefit from the result. Therefore, it’s 10.totally (total) up to you whether you will take the risk of climbing Qomolangma. [素能提升练] Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共10分) At just age ten，Selah Schneiter became the youngest person ever to climb El Capitan in Yosemite National Park.Selah was unaware that she was setting a record at the time. “El Capitan was the mountain my wife Joy and I first climbed together，”Mike，Selah’s father，said.“We fell in love while climbing.”After the couple married，they returned there to climb.They took Selah on her first trip to Yosemite when she was only two months old. First asked if she’d try the Nose, the classic route most climbers take to reach the top of El Capitan，she declined.Then, she began to think about it more, and in 2018 she felt that she was able to make it.However, accomplishing the seemingly impossible climb requires more than simply deciding to go for it.Over the winter, Mike and Selah prepared for “the big decision”． When it came time to the climb, Selah and Mike were joined by Mark Regier, a long-time family friend who had been part of the El Capitan team when Mike and Joy met.He was also the chief witness of their wedding.Doing such a climb with a ten-year-old, Regier considered it seriously.“Being a father myself, I must look after her well，” he said.At first he checked and double-checked everything she did, but after a while he was sure Selah knew what she was doing.Then they set off. In the process, Selah showed fortitude.“It wasn’t that frightening，” she said.“The only thing I ever got scared of was what would happen if I didn’t do this.” She admitted to getting nervous at the foot of the mountain, but later she calmed herself and was comfortable being high.Eventually, she and her companions completed the 5-day climb successfully. 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了年仅10岁的Selah Schneiter成功攀登El Capitan，成为史上征服这座峭壁最年轻的攀登者的故事。 1．What can we know about Mike? A．He encouraged Selah to set a record. B．He is closely connected with Yosemite. C．He helped Selah decide to climb El Capitan. D．He came across Joy at Regier’s wedding. 答案：B 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，Mike和妻子是在攀登El Capitan 期间相爱的，二人结婚后又重回此地攀登El Capitan。因此，Mike 与Yosemite有很深的渊源。 2．What was Mark Regier’s initial attitude towards Selah’s climbing the Nose? A．Negative. B．Critical. C．Cautious. D．Favourable. 答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Doing such a climb with a ten-year-old，Regier considered it seriously.”可知，起初Regier 对Selah 攀登持谨慎的态度。 3．What does the underlined word “fortitude” in the last paragraph mean? A．Scare. B．Relaxation. C．Pride. D．Courage. 答案：D 解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“‘It wasn’t that frightening，’ she said ... was comfortable being high.”可知，Selah 在山脚下时感到紧张，但后来她镇定下来，并且很享受身处高处的感觉，即攀登过程中她表现出了勇气和刚毅。 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Small Climber, Big Outcome B．Selah Was a True Climber at Ten C．El Capitan: A Best Place to Climb D．Life Means Enjoying Climbing 答案：A 解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了年仅10岁的Selah Schneiter 成功攀登El Capitan，成为史上征服这座峭壁最年轻的攀登者的故事。结合选项可知，A项生动形象且符合文章主旨，为本文最佳标题。 Ⅱ.完形填空(每小题1分，共15分) Ask people to name the world’s tallest peak and anybody with sound general knowledge will name Mount Qomolangma.But quiz them on its exact __1__ and many will be not sure.
