    题目列表(包括答案和解析)



    Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure(冒险)---those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky(冒险的) activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds. I would consider bungee(蹦极) jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place(perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 meters above the ground with an elastic(有弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliff(悬崖).
    For the reasons, some psychologists explain that many people think their life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly(持续的) in danger. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle (战争)for survival.
    Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in comparatively safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping.
    【小题1】Are there many people who are taking part in the dangerous sports?
    【小题2】How many kinds of dangerous sports does the writer refer to?
    【小题3】How long does a bungee jumping usually last?
    【小题4】What do many people think of their life nowadays?
    【小题5】What does the writer tell us in the last two paragraphs?

    “Fish stories” are stories of the greatest fish that a fisherman has almost caught, but for some reason, the fish always get away. Usually, these stories do not have much truth to them. One of the biggest fish stories in history was about a whale.
    In 1891, a ship hunting for whales in the South Atlantic Ocean found a very large whale. While the hunters were trying to kill the whale, it sank two small boats. One man drowned, and another man, James Bartley, was lost in the ocean. However, after the hunters finally killed the whale, they cut open the whale’s stomach and found Mr Bartley inside. He was not dead!
    Several weeks later, Mr Bartley seemed to have gotten over his terrible experience. The only thing he could remember was that while he was inside the whale, it was very hot. The liquid (液体) from the whale’s stomach had turned all of his skin snow white. Mr Bartley had to live with the effect from the whale for the rest of his life.
    Today, many people have heard about the strange experience of Mr Bartley and do not buy it. Not one real fact has been found to prove that the events ever took place described by the sailors. No scientist or newspaper reporter was ever able to talk to Mr Bartley, and all of the stories told in magazines about Mr Bartley’s experience were explained by other sailors on the boat. Mr Bartley was probably not even a real person at all.
    In 1928, after the captain (船长) of the whaling ship had died, one man asked the captain’s wife about Mr Bartley’s story. The wife said that no man who had sailed on her husband’s ship was ever swallowed by a whale.
    However, this has not stopped James Bartley’s story from being repeated, and many people today still believe that it is true.
    小题1:What made Mr Bartley’s skin white?
    A．The ocean water.B．The whale’s teeth.
    C．The heat inside the whale.D．The liquid in the whale’s stomach.
    小题2: Who may have talked to Mr Bartley?
    A．A scientist.B．The captain’s wife.
    C．The sailors on the ship.D．A newspaper reporter.
    小题3:The captain’s wife said that       .
    A．the story was not trueB．her husband told her the story
    C．the whale was never foundD．Mr Bartley didn’t work for her husband
    小题4:Today, many people have heard about the strange experience of Mr Bartley and do not buy it. Here “buy” means       .
    A．明白B．相信C．购买D．证明
    小题5: In paragraph 4 and paragraph 5 we may know that Mr Bartley       .
    A．became a writer laterB．died when he was young
    C．told his story to a magazine reporterD．was not even a real person at all
