文档简介

阅读理解10篇( 1 )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 worlds 14 highest mountains. His last hike was up Mount Annapurna, in Asias 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. Theres 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 Herzogs tale of climbing the icy Annapurna. Herzogs story was of frostbite (冻伤) and difficulty and near-death experiences. Viesturs was hooked right away. Viesturs got his start on Washingtons Mount Rainier in 1977, guiding hikes in the summer. Fifteen years ago, he set out to walk up to the worlds highest peaks. Finally, hes 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 were here at the right time, under the right circumstances, they allow us to go up, and allow us to come down. Whats next for a man who cant stop climbing? Im going to hug my wife and kids and kind of kick back and enjoy the summer, says Viesturs. But for a man whos climbed the worlds 14 tallest mountains, he will probably soon set off on yet another adventure. 1. What record has Ed Viesturs set?A.

El Salvador, which was ruined by a Caribbean storm in 1995, was hit by Hurricane Adrian on Friday. This is the first Pacific-born hurricane to ever reach land in this Central American country. Some 14,000 people left from the western coast of El Salvador. The storm weakened as it crossed land, heading east. Heavy rains created deadly flooding problems in the hurricanes wake. Adrian is the first Pacific storm of the season. It reported maximum continuous winds of 75 miles per hour, the minimum strength of a hurricane. A Category 3 hurricane, Adrian also caused damage and flooding in Honduras. It is expected to break up before reaching the Caribbean Sea on the eastern coast of Central America. Hurricane season typically begins June 1 and lasts through November 30. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has predicted (预告) seven to nine hurricanes for the 2005 season. It is difficult to make any kind of an exact prediction of how many of these will strike land, NOAA administrator Conrad Lautenbacher said. He predicts two to three hurricanes will strike the U.S. this season. Last year, six of nine hurricanes reached Category 3 strength or higher. Four of those hit Florida within a six-week period. Altogether, Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne caused more than $40 billion in damage in the Sunshine State. This years forecast is based on ocean temperatures. Warmer temperatures produce more tropical storms, which can then turn into hurricanes. The issue, really, this year is the unusually warm sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic, said Frank Lepore of the National Hurricane Center. 5. Which of the following is the 2005 first hurricane?A. Charley. B. Adrian. C. Jeanne. D. Frances.6. How many countries struck by the hurricane are mentioned in the text?A. Six. B. Nine. C. Five. D. Three.7. We can infer that warmer ocean temperatures _.A. have nothing to do with the hurricaneB. cause less hurricaneC. are more likely to cause the hurricanesD. do a lot of damage to the areas along the coast8. The passage implies that _.A. hurricane season comes early this yearB. every hurricane formed in oceans could cause great damage to the landC. hurricane often comes in winter and springD. tropical storm is more severe than hurricane ( 3 )Its not quite a rat. Nor is it a squirrel, or a mouse. Its definitely a rodent (啮齿目动物), and its also a brand-new family of mammals. The locals of the Southeast Asian country of Laos call the creature a kha-nyou (ga-nyou). The kha-nyou have long body hair, short legs, and a hairy tail less thick than a squirrels. Theyre vegetarians living in the rocky hills of Laos, and they come out at night, but for more information, youll have to ask the Lao people. It was for sale on a table next to some vegetables. I knew immediately it was something I had never seen before, said Robert Timmins, a researcher for the Wildlife Conservation Society. Timmins was working in Laos to stop people from selling endangered animals when he spotted the species. Criminals who trade illegal wildlife can make a lot of money, but they also push the animals closer to disappearing from the planet. The kha-nyou live in karsts, or rough rock. Mark Robinson, a scientist with the World Wildlife Foundation, set out with Lao villagers to find a few more of the rodents for study. They climbed onto a karst, trapped with rice, and caught several. To find something so unusual in this day and age is just extraordinary, said Timmins. For all we know, this could be the last remaining animal family left to be discovered. Its a big deal to discover an entirely new family of animals. Humans, for instance, belong to the same family as great apes, chimpanzees, and gorillas. So even though kha-nyous look like rats, theyre really very different. The last time scientists discovered a new family of mammals may have been in the 1970s, when they found new bats in Thailand. Timmins seems to have the gift for finding new animals in Laoshe discovered a new species of rabbit there in 1999. Scientists call the kha-nyou Laonastes aenigmamus, which means mysterious mouse that lives among the stones. But if thats too hard, Timmins and Robinson suggest you call them rock rats. 9. Which of the following is not the name for this new creature?A. Karsts. B. Kha-nyou. C. rock rats. D. Laonastes aenigmamus.10. Which of the following cannot describe the new species of rodent?A. They live among the rocky hills of Laos. B. They live on meat of other animals.C. They look like rats but are of different kind.D. They are of the latest discovery of a new species.11. Which of the following is the last discovery of new species of animal except the rodent?A. A new kind of bats. B. Great apes. C. A new kind of squirrel. D. A new kind of rabbit.12. It implies in the passage that _.A. finding a new animal family in Southeast Asia is easyB. finding a new animal family in modern time is extremely rareC. in Southeast Asia new species of animals are often discoveredD. animals that look like the same are of the same family(4) A good way to pass an examination is to work hard every day in the year.
