Section Ⅰ　“Understanding ideas”的课文习读环节 [课时跟踪检测] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Ed Viesturs grew up in Rockford, Illinois, where the tallest thing on the horizon was the water tower.But on Thursday, Viesturs became the only American to climb to the top of the world's 14 highest mountains. His last hike was up Mount Annapurna, in Asia's snowcapped Himalayas.At 26,545 feet, its peak is the 10th highest in the world.It is the mountain that inspired him to start climbing. “It tends to be the trickiest, the most dangerous，” said Viesturs.“There's no simple way to climb it.There are threatening avalanches (雪崩) and ice falls that protect the mountain.” In high school, Viesturs read French climber Maurice Herzog's tale of climbing the icy Annapurna.Herzog's story was of frostbite (冻伤) and difficulty and near-death experiences.Viesturs was hooked right away. Viesturs got his start on Washington's Mount Rainier in 1977, guiding hikes in the summer.Fifteen years ago, he set out to walk up to the world's highest peaks.Finally, he's done. The pioneering climber talks about mountains as if they were living creatures that should be treated with respect.“You have to use all of your senses, all of your abilities to see if the mountain will let you climb it，” said Viesturs.“If we have the patience and the respect, and if we're here at the right time, under the right circumstances, they allow us to go up, and allow us to come down.” What's next for a man who can't stop climbing? “I'm going to hug my wife and kids and kind of kick back and enjoy the summer，” says Viesturs.But for a man who's climbed the world's 14 tallest mountains, he will probably soon set off on yet another adventure. 语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了Ed Viesturs成为唯一一位登上世界14座最高山峰的美国人的事迹。文章详细描述了Viesturs的攀登经历、他对攀登的看法以及他的个人生活。 1．What makes Viesturs interested in mountaineering?

It was a mixture of fear and excitement — feelings I usually get before I begin a new adventure. I had been in Costa Rica for three days and one of my goals for the trip was to raft down the beautiful Pacuare River. I think it is stories like this that lead people to tell me I have an adventurous spirit. But was this experience really adventurous? My tour guide has gone down the river many times, but the excitement was gone and he was just doing his job. Another couple I had met on the trip had been to Costa Rica six times. To them, it was just another trip. I think a big part of any adventure is in the novelty (新鲜) of the experience. You have to break new ground and experience what you've never experienced before. Part of the fun of adventures lies in not knowing what the result will be. That's not something you get from things you know really well. The second feature of adventure is fear. Anything adventurous has a little bit of fear in it. That doesn't necessarily mean overcoming your biggest fears. Just a little fear is all that is needed. It doesn't matter if the thing you're doing has been done before by other people. If it is new to you and something you feel nervous about, it is adventurous. This is why my rafting down the river in Costa Rica was adventurous to me while to my guide, it was just another day on the job. For me，one of the greatest things about adventure is how it affects me internally (内在地). Before an adventure you only recognize your limits; afterwards you realize that you have no limits. That's an amazing thing to think about and something I think everyone should experience. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在冒险时的感受以及对冒险的喜爱。 5．How did the author feel before the first whitewater rafting? A．Excited but hesitant. B．Calm and hopeful. C．Amused and relaxed. D．Excited but fearful. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第一段中“It was a mixture of fear and excitement ... adventure.”可知，作者在第一次漂流之前的感觉是既兴奋又恐惧。 6．Why did the guide and the couple feel different from the author? A．Because the trip lost freshness to them. B．Because they were doing their separate jobs. C．Because they overcame their fears completely. D．Because they didn't like the trip actually. 解析：选A　 细节理解题。根据第二段中“My tour guide has gone ... it was just another trip”及第三段首句可知，导游和这对夫妻与作者感觉不同是因为这次旅行对他们而言已经失去了新鲜感。 7．What is partial fun of adventures from according to the third paragraph? A．Overcoming the biggest fear. B．Knowing something well. C．Facing the unknown result. D．Breaking one's old ground. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Part of the fun of adventures lies in not knowing what the result will be.”可知，冒险的部分乐趣是面对未知的结果。 8．What is the text mainly about? A．First experience of whitewater rafting trip. B．Love for outdoor adventurous experience. C．Memory of living in Costa Rica. D．Understanding of the adventurous spirit. 解析：选D　 主旨大意题。根据最后一段内容可知，这篇文章主要讲述了作者在冒险时的感受以及对冒险的喜爱，表达了作者对于冒险精神的理解。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Rock Climbing as Sport and Art It is estimated (估计) that nine million people climb rocks in the United States. Millions more take part in the activity around the world. __9__ Others compete. Rock climbing can be dangerous. But there are many methods and protective devices that can increase a climber's safety. __10__ Climbers have to pull themselves straight up the face of very high rocks or walls. So they have to be strong enough to carry their own weight. And climbers sometimes have to hold on to rocks with only their fingers or toes. There are several kinds of rock climbing. Traditional rock climbing is done outside. Climbers wear ropes and attach devices to the rocks as they climb many hundreds of meters up. They also connect their ropes to the devices. __11__ Sport climbing is similar. However, in those cases the protective devices are permanently (永久地) placed in the rock. There is also indoor climbing. Rock walls made of wood or concrete have places for the climber's hands and feet. __12__ People climb glaciers or frozen waterfalls instead of rocks. They use special equipment for the ice. And then there is bouldering (巨石攀岩) — climbing rocks between three and seven meters high. __13__ Many climbers like bouldering because they can use less equipment. Climbers often need only special shoes and chalk.All climbers use chalk to keep their hands dry. A．Ice climbing is exactly as it sounds. B．Some do it just for personal interest. C．Some go climbing at weekends or in holidays. D．It is a quicker and more intense (剧烈的) kind of climbing. E．If a climber slips, a rope can stop him from falling. F．Climbing takes strength, control and good balance. G．It is not only more challenging and dangerous, but also more fun. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。攀岩不仅是一项运动，还是一种艺术，全世界有很多人参加攀岩。文章介绍攀岩的技巧和设备，以及其他几种不同的攀岩。 9．选B　根据空后一句“Others compete.”可知，空处承接上文，说明了原因，B项“一些人这样做只是个人兴趣”符合语境，且与空后一句并列。 10．选F　根据空后一句“Climbers have to pull themselves straight up the face of very high rocks or walls.”可知，攀爬需要力量、控制力和好的平衡。 11．选E　根据空前一句“They also connect their ropes to the devices.”可知，空处指出这样做的目的，如果一个登山者滑落，一个绳子会阻止他落下。 12．选A　根据下文“People climb glaciers or frozen waterfalls instead of rocks. They use special equipment for the ice.”可知，冰上攀岩就像它听起来那样。 13．选D　根据空前一句“And then there is bouldering (巨石攀岩) — climbing rocks between three and seven meters high.”可知，这是一种更快、更剧烈的攀爬。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
