8.Last Sunday,Aron Ralston,an experienced hiker and mountaineer,set off to walk alone through the Bluejohn desert canyon (峽谷) in Utah.He was planning an eight-hour,21-kilometer hike.While he was climbing through a narrow part of the canyon,a big stone weighing about 400kilos fell and trapped his right arm.
When he failed to return to the mountain camp where he was staying that night,people simply thought he had decided to camp out somewhere in the canyon.When he still had not returned by Tuesday,the alarm was raised,A search party set out on Wednesday evening,but there we no sign and his family began to fear the worst.
In fact,Ralston,27,was lying trapped in the canyon.By Tuesday,he had run out of water.By Thursday,he realized that he would not survive unless he took unusual action,so he used his pocket knife to cut his arm below the elbow (肘).He then climbed down to the bottom of the canyon.There he met two other hikers,who helped him back to safety.He received some help at a local hospital before being carried to St.Mary's hospital in Grand Junction,Colorado for surgery.
Ralston's astonishing survival brought equal amounts of praise and criticism.While praising the climber for his bravery and calm,experts also pointed out he had broken the first rule of outdoor pursuits.He had failed to leave words with anyone of where he was going that day.
This was in fact Ralston's second near-death experience.In February,he was buried up to the neck in snow by an avalanche (雪崩) while skiing in the Colorado Rockies.Ralston not only managed to dig himself out but he also rescued his skiing companion,who had been completely buried in the snow.Ralton rescued himself and his friend in less than 15minutes.

34.According to the passage,a"hiker"is probably someone whoB.
A.enjoys walking short distances
B.enjoys walking long distances
C.climbs rocks and mountains
D.likes adventure
35. When a big stone trapped his right arm,C.
A.he went on climbing the canyon
B.he managed to return to the mountain lodge
C.he cut off part of his arm to survive
D.two other hikers helped him out
36.Why did Ralston's survival bring criticism?C
A.Because this was his second near-death experience.
B.Because he was brave and calm.
C.Because he told no one where he was going when he set off.
D.Because he amputated his arm below the elbow.
37.Which of the following describes what happened to Aron Ralston?A

分析 本文是人物類閱讀,講述戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)的癡迷者阿倫拉斯頓在峽谷探險(xiǎn)時(shí)遇到意外,砍掉手臂,成功拯救自己.

解答 34.答案 B 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題.根據(jù)第一段提到Last Sunday,Aron Ralston,an experienced hiker and mountaineer,set off to walk alone through the Bluejohn desert canyon (峽谷) in Utah.He was planning an eight-hour,21-kilometer hike可知遠(yuǎn)足者指的是長(zhǎng)途徒步行走的人,故選B項(xiàng).
35.答案 C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第三段提到In fact,Ralston,27,was lying trapped in the canyon.By Tuesday,he had run out of water.By Thursday,he realized that he would not survive unless he took unusual action,so he used his pocket knife to cut his arm below the elbow (肘).可知在二十七歲時(shí)他被困在山谷里,用光了水,意識(shí)如果不采取措施,他會(huì)無(wú)法生存下去,故用小刀截?cái)嗔烁觳,因此選C項(xiàng).
36.答案 C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段提到He had failed to leave words with anyone of where he was going that day.他違犯犯了戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)的一條禁忌,他出去時(shí)沒(méi)有跟任何人打招呼,故選C項(xiàng).
37.答案  A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.本文剛一開(kāi)始講述他正在穿過(guò)狹窄的山谷,一塊石頭砸到他的胳膊,救援隊(duì)開(kāi)始尋找他,他為了生存,砍掉了自己的胳膊,從山谷底部爬出來(lái),故選A項(xiàng).

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀時(shí)經(jīng)常犯錯(cuò)的主要原因是,僅憑讀過(guò)文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來(lái)勾選答案,這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設(shè)布下的題目陷阱.所謂閱讀理解,對(duì)于題目的理解一定要忠實(shí)于原文,因此,每一道題都應(yīng)該與原文作全面的對(duì)比與核查,再得出答案.也就是說(shuō),閱讀理解的每一道題目,在原文都應(yīng)該有明確的出處,我們把這一出處叫做原文相關(guān)句,(1)排除與原文相關(guān)句主題不一致的選項(xiàng)(2)排除與原文相關(guān)句態(tài)度相反的選項(xiàng)  (3)排除用于過(guò)于極端或負(fù)面的選項(xiàng)(4)注意結(jié)合文章主旨和主題去排除.

16.When I was about twelve,I was headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family.It was winter,and on that night,the wind was really blowing.
As my mom and I headed towards the restaurant from our car,a girl about my age and her mother came up to us.They asked if we had any spare change.My mom immediately asked where they kept their things.They pointed to an old car in a parking lot across the street.The girl said there were six of them living in that car,which was the same size as my own family.
My mom said she had something to do,and handing the people a few dollars,we said goodbye.Then,my mother sent us into the restaurant but she didn't come.

I remember thinking that the other girl didn't have any food to eat,and she was headed back to a cold car shared with her family.I will never forget what my mom did that night,and how she taught me one of the best lessons I ever learned.

20.Imagine a stranger walking past you on a cold,rainy day."Lovely weather,isn't it?"the stranger says.Do you laugh,or even smile?If not,you may not have a dry sense of humor.
British people,and particularly the English,are well-known for our dry sense of humor.We often say the opposite of what we mean in order to be funny,and tell jokes in a tone of voice that makes it sound like we are being completely serious.As US writer Julian Tan put it on the HuffPost Students blog:"It is as if it is‘Opposite Day'every day in Britain."
If the people of Britain are known for having a"stiff upper lip"and not showing emotion,then our dry sense of humor shows this through jokes.Often it will take a long time or several beers,to get a British person to tell you what they actually think about something and get behind the wall of humorous sarcasm (諷刺) that they have in front of them.
English comedian Ricky Gervais put it like this:"We play jokes on our friends.We use sarcasm as a shield (護(hù)盾) and a weapon.We avoid being serious until it's absolutely necessary."
It can be annoying and confusing if you haven't been raised with these types of jokes:"Why did he just say such a ridiculous thing?Is he making fun of me?"But it is also true that understanding this type of humor is a good way to make friends with people in the UK,even if you don't find it funny.
It's important to remember that the person telling the joke may actually be making fun of himself or herself,not you.One of the characteristics of British humor is"its strong theme of self-deprecation"(making fun of oneself),according to Tan.So don't worry-often,English people,and British people in general,just want to make fun of themselves!

60.According to the passage,we can know that someone with a dry sense of humor canD.
A.not use sarcasm as a shield and a weapon.
B.not make friends with people in the UK
C.pretend to play jokes on their friends
D.say funny things in a serious way
61.Which of the following words best describes British humor according to Julian Tan?A
A.Opposite.
B.Annoying.
C.Ridiculous.
D.Funny.
62.The underlined phrase"stiff upper lip"in Paragraph 3refers to a quality ofA.
A.remaining calm                                   
B.communicating feelings
C.taking a positive attitude                            
D.focusing attention
63.It can be inferred from the passage thatB.
A.British people are famous for being emotional
B.British people's humor is often misunderstood
C.it's a tradition for British people to make fun of each other
D.it doesn't take a long time to make friends with British people
64.The passage is mainly aboutD.
A.why British people like laughing at themselves
B.some tips on how to make British people laugh
C.the importance of humor in British culture
D.what British humor is like.

17.A person has a comparative advantage at producing something if he can produce it at lower cost than anyone else.
Having a comparative advantage is not the same as being the best at something.In fact,someone can be completely unskilled at doing something,yet still have a comparative advantage at doing it!How can that happen?
Let's get some more vocabulary.Someone who is the best at doing something is said to have an absolute advantage.Lance Armstrong (自行車環(huán)法七冠王) has an absolute advantage at cycling.For all I know,Lance Armstrong may also be the fastest typist in the world,giving him an absolute advantage at typing,too.Since he's better at typing than you,can't he type more cheaply than you?That is,if someone has an absolute advantage in something,doesn't he automatically have a comparative advantage in it?The answer is no!If Lance takes time out from cycling to do all his own typing,he sacrifices the large income he earns from entertaining fans of the Tour de France (環(huán)法自由車賽).If,instead,his secretary does the typing,the secretary gives up an alternative secretarial job-or perhaps a much lower salary as a cyclist.That is,the secretary is the lower-cost typist.The secretary,not Lance Armstrong,has the comparative advantage at typing!The trick to understanding comparative advantage is in the phrase"lower cost."What it costs someone to produce something is the opportunity cost-the value of what is given up.Someone may have an absolute advantage at producing every single thing,but he has a comparative advantage at many fewer things,and probably only one or two things.
57.The underlined part in the second paragraph means a comparative advantageB.
    A.is equal to an absolute advantage
    B.doesn't necessarily mean the best skill at something
    C.is not completely based on an absolute advantage
    D.can fully reflect one's ability for work
58.The theory of comparative advantage can remind us of the old saying thatA.
    A.there must be a use for one's talent
    B.where there is a will,there is a way
    C.a(chǎn)ll roads lead to Rome
    D.a(chǎn)ction speaks louder than words
59.If Lance Armstrong types today for 60 dollars,but he gives it up and attends the Tour de France for 100 dollars,his opportunity cost isBdollars.
    A.40.B.60.C.100.D.160.
60.According to the author,when we cooperate with somebody,we shouldC.
    A.compare the absolute advantage
    B.consider the time of cooperation
    C.find the comparative advantage first
    D.neglect the opportunity cost.
