18.Today,Mount Qomolangma's peak is not a lonely place any more.More than 3,500people have successfully climbed the 8,844m mountain,and more than a tenth of that number reached the peak just over the past year.As more and more people try to test themselves against Qomolangma,many a time the mount can be very crowded.Climbers have complained about waiting for hours in the bottlenecks(狭窄路段) on the way to the peak.If bad weather strikes,climbers can and do die.But the dangerous crowds aren't the only problem on Qomolangma.All those climbers need to bring a lot of gear-much of them ends up being left on the mountain,sometimes even the peak itself.Mount Qomolangma is becoming the world's tallest rubbish dump.Here's mountaineer Mark Jenkins writing in National Geographic about the state of Qomolangma:"The two standard routes,the Northeast Ridge and the Southeast Ridge,are not only dangerously crowded but also badly polluted."
But the good news is that some mountaineers are taking it upon themselves to clean up Qomolangma.Mountaineer Paul Thelen and his friend Eberhard Schaaf are part of the annual Eco Everest Expedition,which has been cleaning up rubbish from base camps to the peak since 2008.So far they've collected over 13tons of garbage.
Some of that rubbish is even being used for a higher purpose.As part of the Mount Everest 8844Art Project,a group of 15artists from Nepal collected 1.5tons of garbage brought down the mountain by climbers.They've changed the cans and oxygen tanks-in one case,part of the remains of a helicopter-into 74pieces of art that have already gone on exhibition in Nepal's capital.Part of the profit from sales will go to the Everest Peakeers Association,which has helped collect tons of rubbish off the mountain.

分析 本文主要讲的是珠穆朗玛峰变得拥挤不堪,并且充满垃圾的现状.
解答 8.B细节题.由第一段第三、四句"As more and more people try to test themselves against Qomolangma,many a time the mount can be very crowded.Climbers have complained about waiting for hours in the bottlenecks(狭窄路段) on the way to the peak."可知,珠穆朗玛峰上多次出现拥堵的情况,登山者抱怨经常在狭窄路段等待数小时.故正确答案为B.
9.A推断题.由第二段第二句"All those climbers need to bring a lot of gear-much of them ends up being left on the mountain,sometimes even the peak itself."可知,gear 是登山者必带的东西,因此可以推测是有用的登山装备,故A项正确.B项,水不会造成垃圾残留,故B项错误;C项,由文章第一段第二句的"more than a tenth of that number reached the peak just over the past year."可知只有约十分之一的登山者爬到顶峰,因此可以推断并不是所有人都会经过狭窄路段,故"通过狭窄路段所需的重要机器"并不是所有登山者都需要携带的,故C项错误;D项,gear 是登山者携带上山的,而非从山上找到的,故D项错误.故正确答案为A.
10.B细节题.由最后一段第三句"They've changed the cans and oxygen tanks-in one case,part of the remains of a helicopter-into 74 pieces of art that have already gone on exhibition in Nepal's capital."可知,15个尼泊尔艺术家将罐头和氧气罐变为74件艺术品,并拿去展览.A项"用珠穆朗玛峰的垃圾制作艺术品"符合文意,故正确答案为A.
11.B主旨题.第一段主要讲珠穆朗玛峰由于登山者众多,变得拥挤不堪,第二段讲由于登山者肆意扔垃圾,使珠穆朗玛峰变成了垃圾场,第三段讲一些攀登者主动清理垃圾,第四段讲一些艺术家将这些垃圾制作成艺术品进行售卖,并将部分利润用于清理珠穆朗玛峰的垃圾.纵观全文,主要讲的是珠穆朗玛峰变得拥挤不堪,并且充满垃圾的现状.故B项"珠穆朗玛峰已经成为一个巨大的烂摊子",总结全文,故B项正确.A项,文中未提及,故A项错误;C项,文章在第三、四段提到了生态珠峰探险,但这并不是文章主旨,故错C项误;D项,文章未提及,故D项错误.故正确答案为B.
点评 本文讲述了珠穆朗玛峰上多次出现拥堵的情况的一个故事,题目涉及多道细节理解题,做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析,结合选项选出正确答案.推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案,切忌胡乱猜测,一定要做到有理有据.
