【导语】本文讲述了迈克曾因父母总拿他和姐姐比较而关系不和,后在美术老师的帮助与建议下参加绘画比赛获奖,最终获得父母认可、改善亲子关系的故事。
【1题详解】
句意:他不愿意和父母说话,因为他们总是拿他和姐姐作比较,并且对他很严厉。
固定搭配compare sb. with sb.意为“把某人和某人作比较”,符合父母总拿迈克和姐姐对比的语境;help“帮助”、push“逼迫”、follow“跟随”均不符合此处语义。
【2题详解】
句意:这让迈克很生气,所以他经常为此和父母争吵。
根据后文“经常争吵”可知迈克情绪愤怒,mad“生气的”符合语境;proud“骄傲的”、excited“兴奋的”、awake“醒着的”逻辑不符。
【3题详解】
句意:后来迈克想要向父母证明他做事情能和姐姐一样好。
show sb. that…意为“向某人证明……”,符合迈克想证明自己能力的语境;build“建造”、praise“表扬”、believe“相信”语义不通。
【4题详解】
句意:幸运的是,他的美术老师格林女士给了他很多帮助。
前文提到迈克在卧室画画,因此对应的是美术老师,art“美术”符合;music“音乐”、physics“物理”、history“历史”和画画无关。
【5题详解】
句意:她有很多独特的方法,教他用不同的方式画画。
根据“many special ways(很多独特的方法)”可知是用不同方式绘画,differently“不同地”符合;nervously“紧张地”、quietly“安静地”、happily“开心地”无法对应独特的教学方法。
【6题详解】
句意:她建议他参加一场绘画比赛。
advise sb. to do sth.意为“建议某人做某事”,符合老师给出参赛建议的语境;allow“允许”、agree“同意”、order“命令”语气或用法不符合师生间的语境。

though引导让步状语从句,意为“尽管、虽然”,表转折让步;but“但是”不能与though连用,if“如果”表假设,until“直到”表时间,均不符合。
【8题详解】
句意:几周后,结果终于公布了。

【9题详解】
句意:他们认为他们的儿子能做得这么好几乎是不可能的。
迈克是父母的儿子,son“儿子”符合;cousin“堂表亲”、sister“姐妹”、brother“兄弟”身份不符。
【10题详解】
句意:他们很高兴,开始关心迈克。
得知儿子获奖,父母的情绪是开心喜悦的,joyful“开心的、喜悦的”符合;calm“冷静的”、afraid“害怕的”、angry“生气的”不符合语境。

Passage2
Stomach flu is one of the most unpleasant of common illnesses. It spreads easily. That’s especially true if someone in your family has it. A virus can cause stomach flu, but not the same one that causes common flu. There’s no medicine to make it go away at once. But there are some things you can do to stop catching it.
You can stop stomach flu by washing your hands often. Use hot water and soap to wash your hands. Using soap is better than using nothing, but it doesn’t work very well against stomach flu. That’s because soap can’t kill viruses completely.
The virus that causes stomach flu is hard to kill. Normal cleaners (清洁剂) won’t always get rid of it. So mix bleach (漂白剂) with water, and use that to clean your house. If someone in your family is sick, remember to clean things that person has touched.
Dishwashers are better at killing viruses than washing the dishes by hand. That’s because they keep the dishes hotter for a longer time. Many viruses can live in your washing machine. So wash clothes with hot water and use bleach, if possible. You may even run the washing machine with no clothes, just hot water and bleach. This will kill any virus in it.
If you do get the stomach flu, drink as much water as possible. If you’re feeling better, don’t return to work or school right away. You can still spread the disease for a few days after you feel better. If you have a fever, wait at least 24 hours after it ends before going out. This will help stop other people from getting sick.
Stomach flu is awful, but by following these tips above, you can keep away from it.
15. From Paragraph 1, we know that ________.
A. stomach flu is a pleasant common flu
B. medicine can make stomach flu go away at once
C. if someone around you catches stomach flu, you may catch it too
D. the same virus can cause stomach flu and common flu
16. What does the underlined phrase “get rid of” probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. 逃离 B. 除去 C. 避免 D. 变糟
17. Which of the following is the best to kill viruses?
A. Washing your hands with water and soap.
B. Mixing bleach with water to clean your house.
C. Washing the dishes and clothes with bleach by hand.
D. Running the washing machine without clothes, just with hot water and bleach.
18. What should we do after a fever ends?
A. Take as little medicine as possible. B. Return to work or school at once.
C. Wait at least 24 hours before going out. D. Go to see the doctor again.
【答案】15. C 16. B 17. D 18. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了肠胃流感的特点、传播方式以及预防和清洁方法,强调了勤洗手、使用漂白剂清洁、高温洗碗和洗衣、以及病后隔离等措施的重要性。
【15题详解】
第一段指出:“It spreads easily. That’s especially true if someone in your family has it.” 说明肠胃流感容易传播,尤其是家人患病时,周围的人也容易被传染。因此C项正确。
【16题详解】
第三段提到:“Normal cleaners won’t always get rid of it.” 结合上下文,普通清洁剂无法“去除”或“消灭”病毒,因此“get rid of”意为“除去”。
【17题详解】
第四段最后两句提到:“You may even run the washing machine with no clothes, just hot water and bleach. This will kill any virus in it.” 说明使用热水和漂白剂空转洗衣机是最有效的杀毒方法,对应D项。
【18题详解】
倒数第二段指出:“If you have a fever, wait at least 24 hours after it ends before going out.” 因此发烧结束后应至少等待24小时再外出,对应C项。
Passage3
Dear Amy,
My special hobby is picking up rubbish. Yes, that’s right. And I especially enjoy collecting waste wood. These pieces of wood may not be wanted (被需要) by others, but my grandfather and I can give them a new life. We love turning them into flower shelves, sunshades and even swings. We place them in our garden and they make us very happy. They also give our garden a sense of design.
I also like picking up bottles. These are usually empty bottles. We can repurpose (重新利用) them by making holes at the top and use them to water flowers. Of course there can be many other uses for these bottles.
I find picking up these waste things very enjoyable. Some people think it’s difficult to discover the hidden treasures of waste things, but it is a piece of cake for me. I’m really good at turning these seemingly useless objects into useful resources. They can help us do many things and create a much cleaner environment.
We are always encouraged to reduce, reuse and recycle waste. By doing these, we can not only create cool new things but also play our part in protecting the environment.
My special hobby of recycling rubbish really brings me a lot of fun and a sense of accomplishment (成就感). Would you join me? Let’s do our part to help make the world a cleaner and better place!
Yours,
Yang Jing

【解析】
【导语】本文是杨静写给Amy的信,介绍了自己回收垃圾的特殊爱好,以及如何将废品改造成实用物品。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据“I especially enjoy collecting waste wood”和“I also like picking up bottles”可知,作者喜欢捡的是废木材和废瓶子。故选D。
【20题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前文“And I especially enjoy collecting waste wood. These pieces of wood may not be wanted by others, but my grandfather and I can give them a new life”可知,作者尤其喜欢收集废木材,这些木头可能没人要,但作者和爷爷可以赋予它们新的生命。因此“them”指代的是“废木材”。故选B。
【21题详解】
推理判断题。 根据开头“My special hobby is picking up rubbish.”以及后文对作者爱好的详细描述,可以推测Amy可能问作者的问题是“What is your special hobby?”。故选A。
【22题详解】
最佳标题题。全文围绕“回收垃圾的特殊爱好”展开,“My Special Hobby: Recycling Rubbish”最贴合主题。故选C。
Passage4
Imagine visiting an amazing place. You can see bears and wolves there. You can walk up mountains and next to rivers of ice. You can fish for salmon (鲑鱼). And you’ll meet many different travelers.
The Tongass is the largest national forest in the United States. It is also one of the oldest and largest quiet rainforests in the world. In the forest, you can find over 1,000 islands and about 17,000 miles of rivers. These rivers are home to all five kinds of Pacific salmon.
You can also find animals in the forest, such as bears, deer and mountain goats. The waters in the area are places for whales, harbor porpoises, and sea otters (海獭), as well as many kinds of fish, like salmon. Also, this area is home to more eagles than any other place in the world!
The Tongass has 5.7 million acres (英亩) of very old forest. These trees are hundreds of years old. Nothing hurts them-not storms, not sickness, not even people cutting down trees.
Cutting down too many trees puts animals in danger, and it also causes bad weather. The earth’s usual weather pattern is changing, and it is changing so fast. Alaska’s wetlands are drying up, and many trees are dying because of earlier spring times. Many diseases grow under warmer conditions, killing trees and animals.
Without taking steps to prepare for these changes, places like the Tongass National Forest, and all of the plants, animals, and people within, will be at risk.
23. What do the underlined words “harbor porpoises” refer to?
A. A kind of plant. B. Names of whales.
C. Some rivers in the Tongass. D. Some animals living in the waters.
24. The writer introduces the Tongass to us by ________.
A. showing us pictures B. giving out numbers
C. telling us stories D. following an exact time order
25. Which word can express the writer’s idea about cutting down trees?
A. Dangerous. B. Stressful. C. Curious. D. Lonely.
26. What do we know from the text?
A. There are not any birds in the Tongass. B. It’s easy for travelers to get lost in the Tongass.
C. The Tongass is a well-protected rainforest. D. Many people cut down trees in the Tongass every year.
【答案】23. D 24. B 25. A 26. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了美国最大的国家森林——通加斯国家森林,描述了其丰富的动植物资源、古老的森林生态系统,以及过度砍伐和气候变化带来的威胁。
【23题详解】
文中第三段提到:“The waters in the area are places for whales, harbor porpoises, and sea otters, as well as many kinds of fish, like salmon.” 由上下文可知,“harbor porpoises”与whales、sea otters、salmon等并列,均为栖息在这片水域中的动物。
【24题详解】
第二段中使用了“over 1,000 islands”和“about 17,000 miles of rivers”,第三段提到“more eagles than any other place”,第四段提到“5.7 million acres”,这些数据说明作者通过列出数字来介绍通加斯国家森林。
【25题详解】
第五段第一句提到:“Cutting down too many trees puts animals in danger”,明确指出砍伐树木会使动物处于危险之中,因此作者对此持“危险的”态度。
【26题详解】
第四段指出:“Nothing hurts them—not storms, not sickness, not even people cutting down trees”,说明这些古老树木生命力极强,未被破坏;同时全文虽提到砍伐和气候变化的威胁,但并未说每年有很多人砍树(D错误),也没有说没有鸟(A错误,有鹰),更没有说游客容易迷路(B错误),因此C“通加斯是一个保护良好的雨林”符合文意。
第二节 阅读短文,根据短文内容,从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,使短文意思完整、连贯。(每个选项限用一次)
Do you often laugh with friends? Do you giggle at jokes? If you do, that is great, because just as the saying goes: Laughter is the best medicine!
First of all, ____27____ When we laugh, our body takes in more oxygen. Every part of our body needs oxygen to work well. Laughter also makes our body work out. Our heart, stomach, and even our shoulders work hard when we laugh! But after we laugh, our muscles feel more relaxed. A good laugh can help you feel relaxed for up to 45 minutes. Over time, laughter helps our body to get stronger, fight off more diseases, and even create special chemicals to help us feel less pain!
____28____ When we laugh, it makes us feel less stressed or anxious, and things will not seem so bad. Laughing also causes our brain to release chemicals that make us feel calm and happy. Scientists even think that smiling often is enough to increase these chemicals in our brain.
But it is not always easy to laugh on our own. We are 30 times more likely to laugh when we are around others. According to some scientists, laughter can show others that we want to be close to them. ____29____ But people laugh so that others will know that they are being friendly. Some people even join laughing groups. Although they force themselves to laugh at first, after hearing other people laugh, their laughter becomes real! Before long, the whole group of people is laughing hard.
The next time you feel unhappy, ___30___ Although you might not want to laugh when you are sad, doing so can make you feel better!
A. Monkeys clean one another’s fur to show friendship.
B. try thinking about something funny.
C. laughter is good for our body.
D. Laughter also has many benefits for our mood.
【答案】27. C 28. D 29. A 30. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了笑对身体、情绪的好处,以及笑在人际交往中的作用,告诉我们不开心时可以想有趣的事情让自己笑起来。
【27题详解】
下文主要讲述笑能让身体吸入更多氧气、锻炼身体、放松肌肉、增强抵抗力,都是对身体的好处。C项“laughter is good for our body.”概括本段核心,总领下文,衔接自然。
【28题详解】
下文主要讲述笑能减轻压力和焦虑,让大脑分泌让人平静快乐的物质,属于对情绪的作用。D项“Laughter also has many benefits for our mood.”作为本段中心句,引出下文内容,逻辑通顺。
【29题详解】
前文提到笑可以向他人表达友好,后文用“but”转折说明人类用笑表示友好。A项“Monkeys clean one another’s fur to show friendship.”用动物的行为作类比,与下文形成对比,衔接合理。
【30题详解】
前文建议不开心时可以采取行动,后文说这样做会让人感觉更好。B项“try thinking about something funny.”给出具体做法,符合祈使句语境,与上下文匹配。

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了詹姆斯和艾伦独自在外居住,一天詹姆斯做炸鸡时导致油锅起火,詹姆斯被火苗引燃衣服,艾伦凭借学到的安全急救知识迅速灭火的故事。
【31题详解】
句意:他们喜欢学习独自做很多事。do sth. oneself 表示“独自做某事”,主语是they,需用其反身代词themselves。
【32题详解】
句意:首先,他往锅里倒油。后文出现关键词Then,结合提示词one可知,此处表示“首先”,对应序数词first,句首首字母大写,故填First。
【33题详解】
句意:艾伦开心地大喊。修饰动词短语called out,要用副词,happy的副词形式是happily。
【34题详解】
句意:突然,艾伦停止说话并抬起头。stopped talking和looked up是并列的谓语动作,用并列连词and连接。
【35题详解】
句意:巨大的火苗窜向空中。描述火灾正在发生,用过去进行时,结构为“was/were+动词的现在分词”,jump的现在分词是jumping。

【37题详解】
句意:詹姆斯大叫一声扑倒在地。根据“and threw himself to the floor”可知本句时态为一般过去时,cry的过去式为cried。
【38题详解】
句意:他通过在地上打滚扑灭了身上的火。by doing sth.表示“通过做某事”,表方式。
【39题详解】
句意:多亏了他在学校上的急救和安全课程。safety classes意为“安全课程”,用名词safety修饰classes。
【40题详解】
句意:几秒内,锅里的火就被扑灭了。in seconds意为“瞬间;几秒内”,second用复数形式。
Ⅴ. 任务型阅读(共10分,51-53小题每题2分;54小题4分)
根据短文内容,简略回答问题。
To most people, Mount Qomolangma is one of the greatest wonders of the world. On the highest place on earth, you will feel like you are able to touch the sky. But only the best climbers reach the top, and that is only if they survive the terrible conditions first. On the mountain, temperatures can fall to -30 degrees. Climbers must also deal with thin air, high cliffs, and changeable weather.
Before 1960, no one was able to reach the top of Qomolangma from the northern side. Mountain climbers even called that way the “Death Road”, but a Chinese climbing team was determined to make the climb.
On 24 May 1960, climbers Liu Lianman, Wang Fuzhou, Qu Yinhua, and Gongbu arrived at the Second Step. It was 8,600 metres above sea level. People said it was so high that even birds could not reach it. Liu allowed his teammates to step on his shoulders. Bit by bit, the climbers pulled themselves up, and they made it past the Second Step. At 4:20 a.m. on 25 May, the Chinese national flag flew above the world’s highest mountain for the first time.
In 1975, another Chinese team climbed to the top of Qomolangma to do research. This time, they brought a ladder to the Second Step. Until 2007, almost all climbers from the northern side used this “Chinese Ladder” to reach the top much faster. In 2020, a Chinese research team went to Qomolangma to measure its height—8,848.86 metres.
Climbing Qomolangma is dangerous. Some climbers reach the top successfully, but many fail. Why do people still risk their lives to climb the highest mountain in the world? It is because human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped. Or, as the English explorer George Mallory put it, it is simply “because it’s there”!
41. What is Mount Qomolangma to most people?
______________________________________________________________.
42. Who helped his teammates pass the Second Step by letting them step on his shoulders?
______________________________________________________________.
43. When did Chinese climbers bring the “Chinese Ladder” to the Second Step?
______________________________________________________________.
44. What do you think of the Qomolangma climbers? Write 30 words or more.
______________________________________________________________
【答案】41. It is one of the greatest wonders of the world.
42. Liu Lianman.
43. In 1975.
44. I think they are very brave and strong. They faced many difficulties like cold weather and thin air, but they never gave up. Their spirit inspires me to work hard for my dreams. (言之有理即可)
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了珠穆朗玛峰的自然环境、人类攀登历史以及中国登山队多次登顶和测量高度的伟大成就。
【41题详解】
根据文章第1段“To most people, Mount Qomolangma is one of the greatest wonders of the world.”可知,珠穆朗玛峰对大多数人来说是伟大的奇迹之一。故填It is one of the greatest wonders of the world.
【42题详解】
根据文章第3段“Liu allowed his teammates to step on his shoulders.”以及本段开头提到的climbers Liu Lianman可知,刘连满帮助了队友。故填Liu Lianman.
【43题详解】
根据文章第4段“In 1975, another Chinese team climbed to the top of Qomolangma to do research. This time, they brought a ladder to the Second Step.”可知,带来梯子的时间是1975年。故填In 1975.
【44题详解】
本题为开放性试题。根据文章第5段“Climbing Qomolangma is dangerous…human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped.”可知,攀登者具有勇敢和坚持的精神,言之有理即可。故填I think they are very brave and strong. They faced many difficulties like cold weather and thin air, but they never gave up. Their spirit inspires me to work hard for my dreams.

46. 你应该阻止他犯错误。
______________________________________________________________.
【答案】You should stop him from making mistakes.
【解析】
【详解】“你应该阻止他犯错误。”可译为“You should stop him from making mistakes.”。根据汉语意思可知,本句时态为一般现在时,且有情态动词should。“你”英文为You,作句子主语;“应该”英文为should,是情态动词,后面接动词原形;“阻止某人做某事”英文为stop sb. from doing sth.,是固定搭配;“他”英文为him,作动词stop的宾语;“犯错误”英文为make mistakes,此处跟在介词from后面,要用动名词形式making mistakes。
47. 世界上最大的沙漠是什么?
____________________________________
【答案】What is the largest desert in the world?
【解析】
【详解】“世界上”译为in the world,介词短语作地点状语,置于句末。“最大的沙漠”译为the largest desert,用形容词最高级形式,前加定冠词the。“是什么”用疑问词What引导,后接系动词is,构成主系表结构。

【答案】If we pull together, we should win next time
【解析】
【详解】“如果我们齐心协力,下次我们应该能赢。”译为“If we pull together, we should win next time”。本句为由if引导的条件状语从句,“齐心协力”用“pull together”表示,从句时态用一般现在时,即If we pull together;“赢”用“win”表示,“下次”用“next time”表示,主句用情态动词should表示推测,即we should win next time。
49. 尽管你们吵架了,但你们仍然是很亲密的朋友。
_________________________________________________________
【答案】Although you argued, you are still very close friends.
【解析】
【详解】“尽管你们吵架了,但你们仍然是很亲密的朋友。”译为“Although you argued, you are still very close friends.”该句为让步状语从句,主句使用一般现在时,从句使用一般过去时;尽管:although,引导让步状语从句;你们:you,在从句中作主语;吵架了:argued,在从句中作谓语;你们:you,在主句中作主语;仍然是:are still,在主句中作系动词;很亲密的朋友:very close friends,在主句中作表语。

Passage2
Stomach flu is one of the most unpleasant of common illnesses. It spreads easily. That’s especially true if someone in your family has it. A virus can cause stomach flu, but not the same one that causes common flu. There’s no medicine to make it go away at once. But there are some things you can do to stop catching it.
You can stop stomach flu by washing your hands often. Use hot water and soap to wash your hands. Using soap is better than using nothing, but it doesn’t work very well against stomach flu. That’s because soap can’t kill viruses completely.
The virus that causes stomach flu is hard to kill. Normal cleaners (清洁剂) won’t always get rid of it. So mix bleach (漂白剂) with water, and use that to clean your house. If someone in your family is sick, remember to clean things that person has touched.
Dishwashers are better at killing viruses than washing the dishes by hand. That’s because they keep the dishes hotter for a longer time. Many viruses can live in your washing machine. So wash clothes with hot water and use bleach, if possible. You may even run the washing machine with no clothes, just hot water and bleach. This will kill any virus in it.
If you do get the stomach flu, drink as much water as possible. If you’re feeling better, don’t return to work or school right away. You can still spread the disease for a few days after you feel better. If you have a fever, wait at least 24 hours after it ends before going out. This will help stop other people from getting sick.
Stomach flu is awful, but by following these tips above, you can keep away from it.
15. From Paragraph 1, we know that ________.
A. stomach flu is a pleasant common flu
B. medicine can make stomach flu go away at once
C. if someone around you catches stomach flu, you may catch it too
D. the same virus can cause stomach flu and common flu
16. What does the underlined phrase “get rid of” probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. 逃离 B. 除去 C. 避免 D. 变糟
17. Which of the following is the best to kill viruses?
A. Washing your hands with water and soap.
B. Mixing bleach with water to clean your house.
C. Washing the dishes and clothes with bleach by hand.
D. Running the washing machine without clothes, just with hot water and bleach.
18. What should we do after a fever ends?
A. Take as little medicine as possible. B. Return to work or school at once.
C. Wait at least 24 hours before going out. D. Go to see the doctor again.
Passage3
Dear Amy,
My special hobby is picking up rubbish. Yes, that’s right. And I especially enjoy collecting waste wood. These pieces of wood may not be wanted (被需要) by others, but my grandfather and I can give them a new life. We love turning them into flower shelves, sunshades and even swings. We place them in our garden and they make us very happy. They also give our garden a sense of design.
I also like picking up bottles. These are usually empty bottles. We can repurpose (重新利用) them by making holes at the top and use them to water flowers. Of course there can be many other uses for these bottles.
I find picking up these waste things very enjoyable. Some people think it’s difficult to discover the hidden treasures of waste things, but it is a piece of cake for me. I’m really good at turning these seemingly useless objects into useful resources. They can help us do many things and create a much cleaner environment.
We are always encouraged to reduce, reuse and recycle waste. By doing these, we can not only create cool new things but also play our part in protecting the environment.
My special hobby of recycling rubbish really brings me a lot of fun and a sense of accomplishment (成就感). Would you join me? Let’s do our part to help make the world a cleaner and better place!
Yours,
Yang Jing

Passage4
Imagine visiting an amazing place. You can see bears and wolves there. You can walk up mountains and next to rivers of ice. You can fish for salmon (鲑鱼). And you’ll meet many different travelers.
The Tongass is the largest national forest in the United States. It is also one of the oldest and largest quiet rainforests in the world. In the forest, you can find over 1,000 islands and about 17,000 miles of rivers. These rivers are home to all five kinds of Pacific salmon.
You can also find animals in the forest, such as bears, deer and mountain goats. The waters in the area are places for whales, harbor porpoises, and sea otters (海獭), as well as many kinds of fish, like salmon. Also, this area is home to more eagles than any other place in the world!
The Tongass has 5.7 million acres (英亩) of very old forest. These trees are hundreds of years old. Nothing hurts them-not storms, not sickness, not even people cutting down trees.
Cutting down too many trees puts animals in danger, and it also causes bad weather. The earth’s usual weather pattern is changing, and it is changing so fast. Alaska’s wetlands are drying up, and many trees are dying because of earlier spring times. Many diseases grow under warmer conditions, killing trees and animals.
Without taking steps to prepare for these changes, places like the Tongass National Forest, and all of the plants, animals, and people within, will be at risk.
23. What do the underlined words “harbor porpoises” refer to?
A. A kind of plant. B. Names of whales.
C. Some rivers in the Tongass. D. Some animals living in the waters.
24. The writer introduces the Tongass to us by ________.
A. showing us pictures B. giving out numbers
C. telling us stories D. following an exact time order
25. Which word can express the writer’s idea about cutting down trees?
A. Dangerous. B. Stressful. C. Curious. D. Lonely.
26. What do we know from the text?
A. There are not any birds in the Tongass. B. It’s easy for travelers to get lost in the Tongass.
C. The Tongass is a well-protected rainforest. D. Many people cut down trees in the Tongass every year.

Ⅴ. 任务型阅读(共10分,51-53小题每题2分;54小题4分)
根据短文内容,简略回答问题。
To most people, Mount Qomolangma is one of the greatest wonders of the world. On the highest place on earth, you will feel like you are able to touch the sky. But only the best climbers reach the top, and that is only if they survive the terrible conditions first. On the mountain, temperatures can fall to -30 degrees. Climbers must also deal with thin air, high cliffs, and changeable weather.
Before 1960, no one was able to reach the top of Qomolangma from the northern side. Mountain climbers even called that way the “Death Road”, but a Chinese climbing team was determined to make the climb.
On 24 May 1960, climbers Liu Lianman, Wang Fuzhou, Qu Yinhua, and Gongbu arrived at the Second Step. It was 8,600 metres above sea level. People said it was so high that even birds could not reach it. Liu allowed his teammates to step on his shoulders. Bit by bit, the climbers pulled themselves up, and they made it past the Second Step. At 4:20 a.m. on 25 May, the Chinese national flag flew above the world’s highest mountain for the first time.
In 1975, another Chinese team climbed to the top of Qomolangma to do research. This time, they brought a ladder to the Second Step. Until 2007, almost all climbers from the northern side used this “Chinese Ladder” to reach the top much faster. In 2020, a Chinese research team went to Qomolangma to measure its height—8,848.86 metres.
Climbing Qomolangma is dangerous. Some climbers reach the top successfully, but many fail. Why do people still risk their lives to climb the highest mountain in the world? It is because human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped. Or, as the English explorer George Mallory put it, it is simply “because it’s there”!
41. What is Mount Qomolangma to most people?
______________________________________________________________.
42. Who helped his teammates pass the Second Step by letting them step on his shoulders?
______________________________________________________________.
43. When did Chinese climbers bring the “Chinese Ladder” to the Second Step?

44. What do you think of the Qomolangma climbers? Write 30 words or more.
