第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分45分）

第一节 阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

A

Erik Weihenmayer wants to climb Mount Everest. He loves to climb, and there is no place greater for climbers than the Himalayan peak of 29,035 feet, the world’s highest mountain.

Weihenmayer is blind. He has been blind since age 13, when an eye disease robbed him of his sight. His new book, Touch the Top of the World, A blind Man’s Journey to Climb Farther than the Eye Can See, describes his blindness and climbing. He is the first blind man to attempt Everest. The team reached base camp at 17,800 feet last Wednesday and begins its climb Saturday. If all goes well, Weihenmayer will reach the top on or about May 15.

“I’m not just some token blind guy, ” Weihrnmayer, aged 32, said hours before he left Los Angeles on Friday for Katmandu, Nepal. “I put my life in my fellow climbers’ hands, and they put their lives in my hands. It’s an honour to reach that state.”

“I want to experience the sense of adventure. Blindness has nothing to do with that. But a

message of the climb is that a blind person can join a team and climb the highest mountain in the world.”

Weihenmayer has climbed the highest peaks on four continents: North America’s Mount McKinley, South America’s Aconcagua, Africa’s Kilimanjaro and Antarctica’s Vinson Massif. He is an expert rock and ice climber, having scaled EL Capitan in Yosemite National Park. When he was 16, he attended a school that taught blind people to be independent. One day, a group went rock climbing. “I really liked it,” Weihenmayer said. “You can problem – solve. It is pretty sense in your inner mind. People didn’t think blind people could go out and become expert rock climbers.” 41．Which of the following sentences is NOT True? A．Weihenmayer has been blind for almost 19 years. B．Weihenmayer is the first man to climb Everest. C．Mountain climbers think it great to conquer the Himalayan peak. D．Weihenmayer might have begun his dream when he was in his teens.

42．The distance between the top of Mount Everest and the team camp was probably . A．29,035 feet B．11,235 feet C．17,800 feet D．not told in the passage 43．Weihenmayer . A．likes the sense of being dependent on other people now that he is blind B．will have climbed the highest mountains on four continents after climbing Mount Everest C．loves climbing because he wants to enjoy the sense of adventure of problem – solving. D．and his teammates will reach the top of Mount Everest exactly on May 15

Passport Control（护照验证处）

If you are arriving at London Heathrow Airport and are not transferring to another flight outside Britain or Northern Ireland, you must pass through Passport Control and Customs immediately after leaving your plane. If you are not Britain or a citizen of the European Community（欧共体），you must fill out a special form before your passport is examined. This form is called a landing card and should be given to you during the flight to London.

After landing, follow the ARRIVALS signs. Make sure you are in the right channel when you reach Passport Control. There is one channel for holders of European Community Passports, and a second channel marked “Other Passports”. Baggage Reclaim Area（取行李处）

After passing through the Passport Control, follow the signs to the Baggage Reclaim Area. If you have luggage which is carried in the aircraft hold, it will be delivered to you in the Baggage Reclaim Area. Look for the sign with your flight number. If you have only hand luggage, go directly through the Baggage Reclaim Area to the Customs. Customs

All passengers must pass Customs after Passport Control. There is a choice of two channels: Green and Red. If you have nothing to declare, go through the Green Channel. If you are not sure about your Duty Free allowance（免税限额）or if you have something to declare, go through the Red Channel. Information about Duty Free allowance can found on special notice – boards in the
