Islamabad, Pakistan, June 22nd---Two mountain climbers surprisingly survived (幸免于) a fall of over 500 feet on the 25,530-foot mountain in Pakistan, Saturday. The two climbers were climbing an ice-covered wall of the mountain when they suddenly lost their footing and fell about 560 feet to a narrow snow-covered ledge(悬崖突出部分) below. “We were lucky that ledge was there,” said the climbers, “Otherwise, we would have fallen over 2,000 feet.” If the ledge had not been there, the two climbers almost certainly have met their death. “It’s a wonder,” the climbers said, “that we landed on the ledge, and the snow was loose enough to cushion(缓冲) our fall. We’re thankful that we survived.”

When a reporter asked them if they planned to give up mountain climbing after their narrow escape(九死一生), the two climbers replied, “Not at all. We’ll be going back up there just as soon as we get out of the hospital.”

The mountain climbers survived because _____.

A. they had fallen only 500 feet down     B. of the ledge and the loose snow on it

C. of their strong bodies                 D. they were very good climbers

If there had not been the snow-covered ledge, _____.

A. they wouldn’t have fallen down           B. they would have them wounded

C. they would have lost their lives           D. they would fall into the deep snow

How high was the ledge from the foot of the mountain?

A. 2,560 feet high          B. 2,000 feet high  

C. 25,530 feet high         D. More than 1,400 feet high 

Choose the right order which shows what happened to the two climbers.

a. talked with a reporter           b. lost their footing 

c. was sent to a hospital           d. fell to a ledge     

e. started to climb an ice-covered wall

A. b-d-c-e-a          B. e-d-b-c-a        C. e-b-d-c-a       D. a-c-b-d-e
