五、阅读理解（每小题2分，共8分）

A group of friends decided to go on a hiking trip in the mountains. There was a boy named Alex among them. They were all excited about the adventure, because they had never been hiking before. But they also knew that hiking in the mountains could be full of unexpected situations, just like the stories of mountain climbing accidents they had heard.

As they started their journey, the weather was perfect, with a clear blue sky and a gentle breeze. They walked along a narrow path (小径), surrounded by beautiful trees and colourful flowers. However, as they got deeper into the mountains, the weather suddenly changed. Dark clouds gathered, and it started to rain heavily.

Alex had some basic knowledge of outdoor survival (生存). He suggested they find a shelter. They quickly looked around and found a small cave. Inside the cave, they tried to keep warm and dry. While waiting for the rain to stop, they shared their food and stories.

After a few hours, the rain finally stopped. They continued their journey, but they soon realised that they had lost their way. Alex used his compass and map to try to find the right direction. With his efforts and the support of his friends, they finally found the main path again.

When they reached the end of the hiking trip, they were all tired but also filled with a sense of

achievement. They learnt the importance of being prepared, helping each other and staying calm in difficult situations.

(      )1. Why were the friends excited about the hiking trip?

[A] Because they wanted to test their survival skills.

[B] Because they liked the rain in the mountains.

[C] Because they were looking forward to the adventure.

[D] Because they had never been hiking before.
