2.They are the sort of friends who are so close they trust each other with their lives.If one falls.the other is there to catch him.
     They are Wellman,whose legs were perrnantly injured nine years ago in rock-climbing accident,and Corbett.a(chǎn)n experienced rock elimber.Together.They climbed up Half Dome.the famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National park,through one of the most diffieult routes(路線).
     During the climb,Corbett took the lead,hit in the metal spikes (尖狀物)that guided the mpes and climbed up.Then,after Wellman pulled himself up the rope,Corbell went down to remors the spikes and clmbed up again.This process was repeated time and again,inch by ipch,for 13days.Wellman's job was not easy either,He got himself up the rope through uppor body strength alone.In all,Wellman figured that he had done 5.000pull-ups up the rope on the clich.
     However,when the two men first met,they never talked about climbing"He knew that was how I got injured."Wellman said.Until one day Wellman decided that be wanted to climb again and they started training.
     Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth.At one point,pieces of rock gave way,and Corbett dropped down quickly.Wellman locked their rope in place,stopping the fall at 20 feet.His quick action probably saved his friend's life.
"Your partner can save your life-you can save your partner's life."Wellman said as the pair received congratulations from friends"there are real close tic."

分析 全文大意:
世界上有一種友誼是用生命在相信對方,以至于在一個人倒下的時候,另一個人會用盡全力接住他.Wellman和Corbett就是這樣一對朋友.
Wellman和Corbett都是攀巖愛好者,他們一起在優(yōu)勝國家公園(the Yosemite National park)的半圓頂(Half Dome)攀巖.九年前Wellman在一次攀巖事故中受到永久的傷害.
在這次攀爬中,Wellman和Corbett互相幫助.Wellman甚至救了Corbett的性命.
Wellman說道:"你能救你朋友的性命,你朋友也能救你的性命."他們收到了許多的祝賀.

解答 64.B 細節(jié)題  根據(jù)第三段前三行During the climb,Corbett took the lead,hit the metal spikes(尖狀物)that guided the ropes and climbed up.Then,after Wellman pulled himself up the rope,Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again.說明在這次攀登中Corbett要上下兩次故B項正確.
65.C 細節(jié)題  根據(jù)第四段第"He knew that was how I got injured"Wellman said.說明C正確.
66.C 推理題  根據(jù)第四段"Until one day Wellman decided that be wanted to climb again and they started training"說明因為受傷他曾經(jīng)停止訓練一段時間后來又重新恢復訓練,故C項正確.
67.B 主旨大意  根據(jù)本文主題段第一段內(nèi)容They are the sort of friends who are so close they trust each other with their lives.If one falls.the other is there to catch him.說明本文是關于生活中朋友可以互相幫助的故事.故B正確.

點評 本文是考查人生哲理類短文.文章主旨鮮明,很容易在文中找到答案,做題時要注意文章的首段和每一段的首句或尾句,因為他們往往就是文章的主題句.閱讀中要注意要點之間的關系,然后帶著問題,再讀短文,找出答題所需要的依據(jù),完成閱讀任務.

Yours Sincerely,
Li Hua.

3.閱讀短文,并按照題目要求用英語回答問題.
Six days a week,up and down the red hills of northeast Georgia,my grandfather brought the mail to the folks there.At age 68,he retired from the post office,but he never stopped serving the community.
On his 80th birthday,I sent him a letter,noting the things we all should be thankful for-good health,good friends and good outcomes.By most measurements he was a happy man.Then I suggested it was time for him to slow down.At long last,in a comfortable home,with a generous pension,he should learn to take things easy.
"Thank you for your nice words,"he wrote in his letter back,"and I know what you meant,but slowing down scares me.Life isn't having it made; it's getting it made."
"The finest and happiest years of our lives were not when all the debts were paid,and all difficult experiences had passed,and we had settled into a comfortable home.No.I go back years ago,when we lived in a three-room house,when we got up before daylight and worked till after dark to make ends meet.I rarely had more than four hours of sleep.But what I still can't figure out is why I never got tired,never felt better in my life.I guess the answer is,we were fighting for survival,protecting and providing for those we loved.What matters are not the great moments,but the partial victories,the waiting,and even the defeats.It's the journey,not the arrival,that counts."
The letter ended with a personal request:"Boy,on my next birthday,just tell me to wake up and get going,because I will have one less year to do things-and there are ten million things waiting to be done."
Christina Rossetti,an English poet,once said:"Does the road wind uphill all the way?Yes,to the very end."Today,at 96,my grandfather is still on that long road,climbing.

56.What was the author's grandfather before he retired?(no more than 5words)He was a postman.Or:He worked in a post-office.
57.What did the author advise his grandfather to do in his letter?(no more than 10words)He advised him to slow down (and take things easy).
/He advised he/his grandfather (should) slow down.
58.What is the grandfather's view on life according to his letter back?(no more than 10words)The process is more important than the result.
Or:A man should not slow down however old he is.
Or:Life isn't having it made; it's getting it made./It's the journey,not the arrivalthatcounts.
59.How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?(no more than 10words)My/His/The grandfather is still busy doing meaningful things.
Or:The grandfather is still living an active life.
Or:The grandfather is still involved in whatever he can do.
60.Do you agree with the grandfather's view on life?Give reasons in your own words,(no more than 20words)Yes.One should always be full of passion in his life no matter how old he is.
Or:People should make full use of their time to do something meaningful
No.It is more sensible for people to slow down and enjoy an easy life in their old age.
Or:Slowing down contributes to better health and longer life for people in old age.
