It was the final climb n his search t reach the highest tp n all seven cntinents.When Christpher Kulish finally reached Munt Everest's 29，035ft peak, he jined an elite grup knwn as the “Seven Summits Club” (七峰俱乐部)．But the 62yearld Clrad attrney died suddenly Mnday after returning t the first camp belw the muntain's summit.He's the secnd American t die in the past week after reaching Everest's highest pint.His family believes the cause was a heart attack, accrding t the Denver Pst.“He saw his last sunrise frm the highest peak n Earth，” his brther, Mark Kulish, said in a statement t the Denver Pst.“We are heartbrken at this news.”
Last week, 55yearld Dnald Lynn Cash f Utah cllapsed and died just after reaching the Everest peak.He t had reached the highest pint n all seven cntinents.Including Christpher and Cash, at least 11 peple have died n Munt Everest this year.
The deaths cme amng reprts f vercrwding n the ppular muntain.The Nepali gvernment granted a ttal f 381 permits t climb Everest this year, a number that desn't include guides wh are n the muntain as well.Fr sme climbers, that traffic has meant lnger wait times — sme tld the Himalayan Times the wait has been ver tw hurs between the last camp and the peak.Muntaineer Vanessa O'Brien, wh has als climbed the seven summits, said when there's a crwd, being a mre experienced climber wn't help yu.“It desn't matter if yu're the best race car driver in the wrld.If yu're stuck in traffic, yu're stuck in traffic，” she said in an interview.
And when a climber is stuck in that traffic his r her bdy is starting t deterirate (恶化)．O'Brien, wh set a recrd as the fastest wman t reach the highest peak n every cntinent, als said the descent (下降) is ften harder than the climb.
Climbing expert Alan Arnette said there's n simple explanatin fr the string f deaths.He said weather that has led t a shrter climbing seasn is ne factr causing vercrwding.He als said the cst t climb Munt Everest has decreased, which means mre peple are making the jurney.He urged the gvernments in charge f granting (同意) permits t limit hw many peple can be n the muntain at nce.
Still, Christpher was n beginner.His family said he'd been muntain climbing fr five decades.He arrived at the base camp nearly tw mnths befre his climb s he culd give himself time t adapt t the cnditins.When he made his jurney, his family said he was climbing with a small grup in almst ideal cnditins after sme f the vercrwding had cleared.
His brther described being a lawyer as a “day jb” fr Christpher.Climbing was his lve.“He was an inveterate climber f peaks in Clrad, the West and the wrld ver，” Mark Kulish said.“He passed away ding what he lved.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了资深登山爱好者Christpher Kulish在攀登七大洲最高峰返回时在第一个营地突然死亡，并介绍了攀登最高峰人员死亡的原因以及Christpher的一些生平事迹。
4．What made lnger wait times n Munt Everest?

5．What might cause the string f deaths accrding t Alan Arnette?
a．The less cst attracting mre climbers.
b．The mre climbers wrsening the envirnment.

B [细节理解题。根据第五段可知，Alan Arnette认为，成本越低导致吸引越多的登山者、政府给予了太多的登山许可以及天气导致登山季节缩短造成了一连串的死亡。因此a, c和e正确。故选B。]
6．Why did Christpher arrive at the base camp s early befre climbing?
A．T wait fr his friends.
B．T learn abut the muntain.
C．T clear the traffic jam.
D．T adapt t cnditins earlier.

Have yu ever heard f “Survival Hlidays”？ It is fr children t g int the lnely place fr exciting activities.Nw abut 1，000 cmpanies are allwed t take children int the great utdrs withut their parents.
The reasn why peple like “Survival Hlidays” is that they think being clse t nature is gd fr children.Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing cmputer games.“Survival Hlidays” gives them an imprtant change.
Is “Survival Hlidays” a wnderful idea? Maybe it is.Children need mre free time t play.They need t be left n their wn, withut adults disturbing(干扰) them.Parents care t much abut their children.They like t see the children being busy with activities that are cntrlled(控制) by adults, which causes many prblems.Children dn't knw what t d when they are in danger.Even smething like crssing a small river seems t be a hard challenge.Children are nt cmfrtable with danger.Even slight danger like getting their feet wet r falling dwn seems very terrible t them.
Many peple think the survival activities are gd fr children.Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned.Sme have learned t stay calm in dangerus times.Sme have learned hw t keep safe.Others have learned hw t wrk in a team.All these skills will help them a lt in their lives.

9．Which children may take part in “Survival Hlidays”？
A．Pr children.
B．Rich children.
C．Children frm cities.
D．Children frm the cuntryside.

A．The reasn peple dislike “Survival Hlidays”．
B．The advantages f “Survival Hlidays”．

Educatin is nt an end, but a means t an end.In ther wrds, we d nt educate children nly fr the purpse f educating them.Our purpse is t fit them fr life.
In sme mdern cuntries it has fr sme time been fashinable t think that by free educatin fr all — whether rich r pr, clever r stupid－ne can slve all the prblems f sciety and build a perfect natin.But we can already see that free educatin fr all is nt enugh; we find in such cuntries a far larger number f peple with university degrees; they refuse t d what they think “lw” wrk; and in fact, wrk with hands is thught t be dirty and shameful in such cuntries.But we have nly t think a mment t understand that the wrk f a cmpletely uneducated farmer is far mre imprtant than that f a prfessr; we can live withut educatin, but we die if we have n fd.
If n ne cleaned ur streets and tk the rubbish away frm ur huses, we shuld get terrible diseases in ur twns.
In fact, when we say that all f us must be educated t fit us fr life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each f us can d whatever wrk suited t his brain and ability, and secndly, we can realize that all jbs are necessary t sciety, and that is very bad t be ashamed f ne's wrk.Only such a type f educatin can be cnsidered valuable t sciety.

C．a farmer is mre imprtant than a prfessr

A．Wrk with hands is dirty and shameful.
B．Wrk with hands is lw wrk.
C．Wrk with hands is the mst imprtant wrk.

B．t prepare children mainly fr their future wrk
C．t let everyne receive educatin fit fr him

It was the final climb n his search t reach the highest tp n all seven cntinents.When Christpher Kulish finally reached Munt Everest's 29，035ft peak, he jined an elite grup knwn as the “Seven Summits Club” (七峰俱乐部)．But the 62yearld Clrad attrney died suddenly Mnday after returning t the first camp belw the muntain's summit.He's the secnd American t die in the past week after reaching Everest's highest pint.His family believes the cause was a heart attack, accrding t the Denver Pst.“He saw his last sunrise frm the highest peak n Earth，” his brther, Mark Kulish, said in a statement t the Denver Pst.“We are heartbrken at this news.”
Last week, 55yearld Dnald Lynn Cash f Utah cllapsed and died just after reaching the Everest peak.He t had reached the highest pint n all seven cntinents.Including Christpher and Cash, at least 11 peple have died n Munt Everest this year.
The deaths cme amng reprts f vercrwding n the ppular muntain.The Nepali gvernment granted a ttal f 381 permits t climb Everest this year, a number that desn't include guides wh are n the muntain as well.Fr sme climbers, that traffic has meant lnger wait times — sme tld the Himalayan Times the wait has been ver tw hurs between the last camp and the peak.Muntaineer Vanessa O'Brien, wh has als climbed the seven summits, said when there's a crwd, being a mre experienced climber wn't help yu.“It desn't matter if yu're the best race car driver in the wrld.If yu're stuck in traffic, yu're stuck in traffic，” she said in an interview.
And when a climber is stuck in that traffic his r her bdy is starting t deterirate (恶化)．O'Brien, wh set a recrd as the fastest wman t reach the highest peak n every cntinent, als said the descent (下降) is ften harder than the climb.
Climbing expert Alan Arnette said there's n simple explanatin fr the string f deaths.He said weather that has led t a shrter climbing seasn is ne factr causing vercrwding.He als said the cst t climb Munt Everest has decreased, which means mre peple are making the jurney.He urged the gvernments in charge f granting (同意) permits t limit hw many peple can be n the muntain at nce.
Still, Christpher was n beginner.His family said he'd been muntain climbing fr five decades.He arrived at the base camp nearly tw mnths befre his climb s he culd give himself time t adapt t the cnditins.When he made his jurney, his family said he was climbing with a small grup in almst ideal cnditins after sme f the vercrwding had cleared.
His brther described being a lawyer as a “day jb” fr Christpher.Climbing was his lve.“He was an inveterate climber f peaks in Clrad, the West and the wrld ver，” Mark Kulish said.“He passed away ding what he lved.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了资深登山爱好者Christpher Kulish在攀登七大洲最高峰返回时在第一个营地突然死亡，并介绍了攀登最高峰人员死亡的原因以及Christpher的一些生平事迹。

B [细节理解题。根据第五段可知，Alan Arnette认为，成本越低导致吸引越多的登山者、政府给予了太多的登山许可以及天气导致登山季节缩短造成了一连串的死亡。因此a, c和e正确。故选B。]
6．Why did Christpher arrive at the base camp s early befre climbing?
A．T wait fr his friends.
B．T learn abut the muntain.
C．T clear the traffic jam.
D．T adapt t cnditins earlier.
D [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“He arrived at the base camp nearly tw mnths befre his climb s he culd give himself time t adapt t the cnditins.”可知，Christpher在开始攀登前很早就到达了大本营，是为了更早适应气候条件。故选D。]

The reasn why peple like “Survival Hlidays” is that they think being clse t nature is gd fr children.Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing cmputer games.“Survival Hlidays” gives them an imprtant change.
Is “Survival Hlidays” a wnderful idea? Maybe it is.Children need mre free time t play.They need t be left n their wn, withut adults disturbing(干扰) them.Parents care t much abut their children.They like t see the children being busy with activities that are cntrlled(控制) by adults, which causes many prblems.Children dn't knw what t d when they are in danger.Even smething like crssing a small river seems t be a hard challenge.Children are nt cmfrtable with danger.Even slight danger like getting their feet wet r falling dwn seems very terrible t them.

9．Which children may take part in “Survival Hlidays”？
A．Pr children.
B．Rich children.
C．Children frm cities.

Educatin is nt an end, but a means t an end.In ther wrds, we d nt educate children nly fr the purpse f educating them.Our purpse is t fit them fr life.
In sme mdern cuntries it has fr sme time been fashinable t think that by free educatin fr all — whether rich r pr, clever r stupid－ne can slve all the prblems f sciety and build a perfect natin.But we can already see that free educatin fr all is nt enugh; we find in such cuntries a far larger number f peple with university degrees; they refuse t d what they think “lw” wrk; and in fact, wrk with hands is thught t be dirty and shameful in such cuntries.But we have nly t think a mment t understand that the wrk f a cmpletely uneducated farmer is far mre imprtant than that f a prfessr; we can live withut educatin, but we die if we have n fd.
If n ne cleaned ur streets and tk the rubbish away frm ur huses, we shuld get terrible diseases in ur twns.
In fact, when we say that all f us must be educated t fit us fr life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each f us can d whatever wrk suited t his brain and ability, and secndly, we can realize that all jbs are necessary t sciety, and that is very bad t be ashamed f ne's wrk.Only such a type f educatin can be cnsidered valuable t sciety.
