  If you are lost in the mountains, stay calm in the face of darkness, loneliness, and the unknown, It will greatly increase your chances of survival(生存). Many people think that preparing necessary equipment and knowing how to use it are very important, but actually eighty percent of mountain survival is your reaction to fear.

Find a hiding place.

  Unnecessary labor will make you sweat and make you cold. Find a hiding place around you before trying to start your own construction. If you are in a snow-covered area, you may be able to dig a cave in deep snow for protection from the wind. You should try not to hide yourself in the middle of the mountain if possible. Stay out of the valleys--cold air falls, and the valley floor can be the coldest area on the mountain.

Signal rescuers for help.

  The best time to signal rescuers is during the day. Signal for help from the highest point possible it will be easier for rescuers to see you, and any sound you make will travel farther. If you take a box of matches and a space blanket (a special blanket for traveling), build three smoky fires and put your blanket gold side facing out on the ground.

Do not walk away.

  Walking away will make finding you more difficult, as search teams will be trying to follow your path and may miss you if you have gone off in a different direction. Searchers often end up finding a car with no one in it.

If you get frostbite(冻伤), do not warm the affected area until you're out of danger.

  You can walk on frostbitten feet, but once you warm the area and can feel the pain, you will not want to walk anywhere. Try to protect the frostbitten area and keep it dry until you are rescued.

完形填空

  I am a sales representative and I travel all over England to visit my customers.I always   1   to meet a client first in the morning and I usually have several visits to   2   in a day.

  One cold February morning I was due to   3   a store at 9 am.I parked my car, wrapped my scarf around me and   4   up the street towards the shop front.

  The small lane where the store was   5   was partially blocked by two workmen who were busy   6   the broken pavement.I braced myself for the expected catcalls(嘲笑嘘声).I was up early, out in the cold, and was laughed at by two men I didn't even   7  

  Then I stopped and remembered my own father.Both he and my grandfather had   8   much of their early careers working outside in   9   jobs before they became engineers.I remembered how hard Dad worked, in all kinds of   10  ; how he'd come home with sunburn or frostbite(冻疮).I   11   that if I was cold, then these two guys were probably freezing, given that it looked   12   they'd already been working for hours.

  My customer's shop wasn't   13   but I wasn't annoyed at his lateness.I went to a coffee shop around the corner,   14   myself a hot chocolate, and then I bought two more, with cream.

  I made my way down the lane   15   the workmen.One of them turned to with a wide smile and   16   with a joke, “Oh love, you shouldn't have! ” To his   17  , I passed him the plate with the two steaming hot chocolates.I   18   ,“Maybe not.But it's too cold to be working outside today.”

  I got two looks of genuine(真诚的)   19   from the two strangers, and a timely reminder that it is as easy to be kind as it is to prejudge(怀有成见的), but the former is

  so much more   20  .From this experience, I received something different:a smile, a feeling of happiness, a sense of friendship with strangers, and the confidence to give more.

Fat and shy,Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football,tennis,cricket—anything with a round ball,I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire,England.

It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually,Saunders set up his mind on building up his body,increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18,he ran his first marathon.

 The following year he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s school of adventure in Scotland,where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested,Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures,then decided that this would be his future.

  In 2001,after becoming a skillful skier,Saunders started his first long-distance expedition towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite,ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit,pulling his supply-loaded sled up and over rocky rice.

  Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole,and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.

Next October,Saunders,27,heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back,a 2900-kilometer journey that has never been completed on skis.

Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Saunders?

    a. He ran his first marathon.

 b. He skied alone in the North Pole.

   c. He rode his bike in a forest

.d. He planned an adventure to the South Pole.

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

The underlined word “exploits” is closest in meaning to______

  A. journeys   B. operations   C.  researches    D. adventures

The story mainly tell us about Saunders that he is______

A. a good instructor at school   B .the best British skier

C. Ridgway’s favorite student   D. a success in sports

Ben Saunders______after he was 15 years old .

  A. become good at most sports.    B. began to build up his body.

  C. made friends with a runner.     D. joined a sports team

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 world's 14 highest mountains.

His last hike was up Mount Annapurna, in Asia's 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. "There's 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 Herzog's tale of climbing the icy AnnapurnA.Herzog's story was of frostbite (冻伤) and difficulty and near-death experiences. Viesturs was hooked right away.

Viesturs got his start on Washington's Mount Rainier in 1977, guiding hikes in the summer. Fifteen years ago, he set out to walk up to the world's highest peaks. Finally, he's 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 we're here at the right time, under the right circumstances, they allow us to go up, and allow us to come down."

What's next for a man who can't stop climbing? "I'm going to hug my wife and kids and kind of kick back and enjoy the summer," says Viesturs. But for a man who's climbed the world's 14 tallest mountains, he will probably soon set off on yet another adventure.

1.What record has Ed Viesturs set?

  A.He has succeeded in climbing to the world’s 14th highest mountain.

  B.He has been to the top of the world’s 14 highest mountains.

  C.He has become the first to climb to the height of 26,545feet.

  D.He has become the first man to climb to the top of 14 highest mountains in the world.

2.The underlined word “hooked” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by “______”.

  A.frightened          B.discouraged  

  C.interested          D.upset

3.The author used Viestures’ words in Paragraph 6 to support a view that ______.

  A.mountain climbing is a dangerous sport

  B.mountains should be regarded as living creatures

  C.mountain climbing needs more skills than physical energy

  D.those who like mountain climbing won’t stop climbing

4.What’s the next probably plan of Viestures?

  A.Stopping climbing and staying with his family.

  B.Climbing to the top of the world’s 14 tallest mountains again.

  C.Climbing another one of the highest mountains.

  D.Writing down the experiences about his adventure.
