二、阅读理解(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)
A
We often see people waiting in line at supermarkets, theaters and amusement parks. Surprisingly, they even have to wait in line at Qomolangma.
During this year's climbing season, crowds of climbers became a long line near Qomolangma. The line is above the mountain's highest one—about 8,000 meters above sea level.
However, most people can only spend a few minutes at the summit without extra oxygen supplies(氧气补给). Twenty-one mountaineers have died in the Himalayan mountains so far this year. Non-experience and poor weather have been the most common causes of death, USA Today reported.
Why do so many people risk their lives to climb the mountain
Studies suggest that people who take risks tend to believe they are different from people who avoid risky activities. But for adventurers who are drawn to the Himalayas, reaching the summit of Qomolangma is a lifelong dream, according to Discovery News.
"Qomolangma is like a light that attracts people once they hear about it." US mountaineer Alan Arnette said.
Technological advances have also encouraged more people to climb the mountain. People can get high-tech safety equipment more easily than before. And with the Internet, climbers know better than ever about how to reach the summit safely, Yahoo Travel noted.
The best time to climb the Himalayas is during the months of April and May, as well as some days in September and October.
Where do crowds of climbers wait in line
A. At the top of Qomolangma.
B. Far from Qomolangma.
C. On the back of Qomolangma.

1. 第二段先后提到near Qomolangma和about 8,000 meters above sea level,因此判断,登山的人们在海拔约8000米处的珠峰附近扎堆。
2. 由第三段中“Non-experience and poor weather have been the most common causes of death”可知,缺乏经验和恶劣的天气是最常见的死亡原因。B项the hot weather与文章中poor不一致。而C项中non-experience与原文一致。
3. 理解下文可知,介绍的是高科技的设备给登山带来的便利。故猜测equipment意为“设备”。
4. 由最后一段中“The best time to climb the Himalayas is during the months of April and May, as well as some days in September and October.”可知,攀登喜马拉雅山的最佳时间是在4月和5月,以及9月和10月。这属于晚春和初秋季节。故选A。
