Two such climbers, and two unlucky ones are Scott Fischer and Rob Hall. Fischer, an American guide with much experience, was lost in a terrible storm which swept across the mountain. A rescue team found him and his friend, but didn't manage to bring Fischer to safety in the terrible conditions because he was dying. New Zealander RobHall, another experienced climber and guide, was lost near the top. These two men had something in common: they were both guides and always took a "tour" of less experienced climbers up the mountain.
There is a lot that can go wrong in an action to reach the top of
Many people wonder how guides can hope to look after their inexperienced climbers when they fail to keep themselves alive. Steve Bell, also a guide who has recently led a team to Mt Qiomolangma, believed that they are safer than others, because the guide can ask a weak climber to turn back at any point if he feels that climber is a danger to the team.
Whether these expeditions(远征)are safe or not, many climbers feel they have turned Mt. Qiomolangma into a business, like a park for the very rich people. One truth, however, will always remain: it doesn't matter how much money you have, if you make a mistake on Mt. Qiomolangma, the possible result will be death.

51.B。人类1953年第一次征服珠峰,但在此之前有多少次, 文中没讲,文中的750多次指迄今为止人们的尝试,所以, A和D都不对,并非所有的都成功,有人成功有人失败,但C所说的成功者很少也不对。
52.B。本题猜测词义,文中所说的tour显然与攀登珠峰不无关系,因此其他选项的词义都不对。
53.C。本题的答案在第三段。当天气变坏或队员走错路线(a wrong turning)时飞机会出去救援,先给钱,过后才leading guided tours to the top(把有向导带队的攀登者引向山顶)。
54.C。看第四段最后一句,当爬山者觉得自己很虚弱,觉得自己对队友是威胁时, 向导就随时让他们打道回府,因而那些身体强壮者就留下来了。
55.A。短文最后说,对于有钱人来说,珠峰就象是一个公园, 一个专为有钱人开的公园。但是无论你多有钱,只要你在珠峰上出点差错,可能就会导致死亡(你就会没命),因此珠峰对任何人是一视同仁的。
