If this 13year old American boy succeeds in climbing Mount Everest,he has modest ambitions-pick a small piece of rock from the top as a memento (纪念品) and wear it in a necklace. "It is something for myself to say "this is a rock from the top","Jordan Romero from California,told reporters in Kathmandu.He left for the mountain on Sunday. If he succeeds,Romero will become the youngest climber to climb the 8,850 meters Everest Summit. Currently a 16yearold Nepali boy,Temba Tsheri Sherpa,holds the record of being the world"s youngest climber of Mount Everest. But Romero,sitting over lunch with his climbing father and stepmother in Kathmandu"s tourist district of Thamel,said he was not after setting climbing records. Romero said Mount Qomolangma,that runs across NepalChina border,was part of his goal to climb the highest mountains on all seven continents. "It is just a goal," he said confidently."If I don"t succeed I am okay.I will try again." Romero has already climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mount McKinley in Alaska among others. Romero"s father Paul said the boy was ready to take on the climb and understood the risk of climbing the giant mountain. "I know it requires a lot of patience.I will remain patient.I want to stay safe and make right choice," Romero said of his climb using the northeast ridge (山脊) route on the Chinese side of the mountain. Over 4,000 climbers have reached the top of Mount Qomolangma since it was first climbed by New Zealander Sir Edmund Hillary and Nepal"s Tenzing Norgay Sherpa in 1953.Romero said he wanted to climb the highest mountains in all 50 states in the US next."It does not need to be after Qomolangma and could be in between." 1. According to the passage,at present________keeps the record of being the world"s youngest climber of Mount Everest. A. Jordan Romero B. Temba Tsheri Sherpa C. Tenzing Norgay Sherpa D. Sir Edmund Hillary 2. From the passage we can learn that Romero"s goal is________. A. to break the record of the youngest climber to climb Everest Summit B. to pick a small piece of rock from the top of Everest Summit C. to climb the highest mountains on all seven continents D. to climb the highest mountains in all 50 states in the US 3.

Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa come from different countries D. there is no risk climbing Mount Qomolangma 4. The following statements are true EXCEPT________. A.

I remember that when I was in my teens,I used to go against many of the Dos and Don"ts my parents taught me.For example,when I kept playing jazz records on the player,my father would think of such music as making noise and replace them with disks of classical music that I always considered extremely dull. My mom and dad were also very particular about the friends I went out with,always saying that "One rotten (腐烂) apple could ruin a whole barrel of apples". When I insisted on sleeping with my pet dog, they immediately said NO because they thought that I would be bitten by fleas (跳蚤). These are just a few examples of many of the things that I thought my parents were unreasonable about.Today,however,I am a father of a boy of sixteen,and I find that I,too,am pressuring my son with a lot of rules that he seems to find hard to accept.The other day,I noticed that my son"s hair was too long, so I told him to go to the barber"s and get it cut short.Usually,he is fairly obedient,but this time he put_his_ foot_down."What"s wrong with my long hair?I don"t think you have the right to order me to cut it short, even if you"re my father!" When I was a boy,if I had spoken in such a way to my father,he would have taught me a good lesson. But now we are living in a world with more freedom.My son"s insistence on wearing his long hair was only an example of the generation gap that existed between us.So I tried to be more understanding and now he still wears his long hair. 1. The writer"s parents thought it proper for him to________. A. sleep with his pet dog B. listen to jazz C. be careful about making friends D. wear long hair 2. Which of the following is true? A. The writer gave more freedom to his son. B. The writer"s son often went against him. C. The writer always obeyed his parents as a child. D. The writer liked wearing long hair. 3. The underlined phrase "put his foot down" in the third paragraph means ________. A. obeyed B. insisted C. accepted D. left 4. The writer thinks that________. A. parents should be more strict with their children B. no generation gap exists between parents and children C. parents have the right to order their children D. parents should show more respect to their children | |||

I used to believe in the American dream that meant a job, credit and success.I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else, all of us separately chasing the same thing. One year, through a series of unhappy events, it all fell apart.I found myself homeless and alone.I had my truck and $56.I searched the countryside for some place I could rent for the cheapest possible amount.I came upon a deserted cottage in a small remote valley.I hadn’t been alone for 25 years.I was scared, but I hoped the hard work would distract and heal me. I found the owner and rented the place for $50 a month.The locals knew nothing about me.But slowly they started teaching me the art of being a neighbor.They dropped off blankets, tools and canned deer meat and began sticking around to chat.They would ask if I wanted to meet cousin Albie or go fishing. They started to teach me a belief in a different American dream, not the one of individual achievement but of neighborliness.Men would stop by with wild berries, ice cream or truck parts to see if I was up for courting.I wasn’t, but they were civil anyway.The women on that mountain worked harder than any I’d ever met.They taught me how to store food in the stream and keep it cold and safe.I_learned_to_keep_ enough_for_an_extra_plate_for_company. What I had believed in, all those things I thought were necessary for a civilized life, were nonexistent in this place.Up on the mountain, my most valuable possessions were my relationships with my neighbors. After four years in that valley, I moved back into town.I saw a lot of people were having a really hard time, losing their jobs and homes.With the help of a real estate broker (房地产经纪人) I chatted up at the grocery store, I managed to rent a big enough house to take in a handful of people.It’s four of us now, but over time I’ve had nine come in and move on to other places from here.We’d all be in shelters if we hadn’t banded together. The American dream I believe in now is a shared one.It’s not so much about what I can get for myself; it’s about how we all can get by together. 1. Before a series of unhappy events happened, the writer________. A. had a wellpaid job B. worked hard for his American dream C. worked hard and liked to share D. felt hopeless about his American dream 2. What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to? A. The house. B. The job. C. The company. D. The American dream. 3.
