题组C 培优拔尖练
From a young age, I’ve had a really deep connection with being outside. I’ve been skiing since I was eight or nine years old. I’ve been on expeditions(探险)in many places like China, Pakistan and so on. But it was in my home country, the USA, that I came closest to death.
It was April 1,2011. I was skiing in the Tetons with my friends Jeremy and Xavier, both experienced snowboarders. That day, I was the last person to ski. They were watching me from a safe area. Suddenly, I heard someone cry loudly. I turned around and saw the whole mountain start to move behind me. It was a massive avalanche(大雪崩). The kind of avalanche that destroys trees, cars, buses, even houses!Tens of thousands of tons of snow were coming straight down the mountain behind me. I felt the snow push me forward, hundreds of meters, and then cover me. It was so heavy that I couldn’t breathe. And then it pushed me forward again and up, out of the snowpack. I looked around, and for a few seconds I actually stopped being terrified. I had a moment to pause and to look at the power of the avalanche.
I looked down into the bottom of the valley(峡谷). I could see trees that were 30m tall, because I was so far away, they looked tiny to me. “OK, I’m going all the way to the bottom!”I thought. Then the snow pushed me again down the mountain another 450m. I thought the force of the snow would destroy me, it was powerful. But in the end, I felt the avalanche slow down and I just popped(蹦出)right out of the snow at the bottom of the valley.
It took Jeremy and Xavier about 20 minutes to reach me. There was a pile of debris(碎片)across the bottom of the mountain 300m wide. They couldn’t believe it when they saw me. I was so lucky.
Has the experience changed me Do I think about life differently I don’t know, maybe. But I do know that it’s important to live your life with meaning. Life is a gift, so use it wisely.

1.【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。题干询问在作者滑雪的经历中,令作者印象最深刻的是什么。根据第二段最后一句I had a moment to pause and to look at the power of the avalanche.可知,A项“雪的力量”与题干相符,故答案为A项。本题干扰项为D项“探险的幸运”,作者遇险能脱险很幸运,但幸运并不是令作者印象最深刻的事情。
2.【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。题干询问画线单词“they”指的是什么。they为代词,起指代上文避免重复的作用,根据第三段第二句(我可以看到30米高的树,因为我离得远,所以对我来说,它们看起来很小)可知,指的是树,故答案为B项。
3.【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。题干询问根据文章,什么是正确的。根据第二段中的It was so heavy that I couldn t breathe.可知,D项“由于雪的重量,作者无法呼吸”与句意一致,故答案为D项。根据第一段最后一句(但是,在我的家乡美国,我离死亡最近)可知A项与原文不符;B项“大雪崩把作者往下推了大约300米远”,根据第三段第四句(然后,沿着山脉,雪又往下推了我450米)可知,数字有误,犯了信息混淆的错误;C项“作者的朋友在谷底看到了他”,根据第四段第二、三句(在300米宽的山脚下,有一堆碎片,当他们看到我时,他们都无法相信)可知,作者的朋友是在山脚下而非在谷底看到他的,因此错误。
4.【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。题干询问什么时候作者被抛出雪堆。根据第三段最后一句(但是在最后,我感觉雪崩减慢了速度,我正好从峡谷底部的雪堆中蹦出)可知,B项“他被推到谷底”与句意一致,故答案为B项。根据第四段第二、三句可知,他的朋友在山脚下找到他,A项与题干不符;根据第三段最后一句可知,作者感觉雪崩减弱了,C项与原文意思不相符;D项意为“雪再一次驱赶他往前走”,根据原文可知,这发生在作者跳出雪堆之前,顺序不对。
5.【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段第四、五句话(但我知道,过有意义的生活是非常重要的。生活是一份礼物,所以要明智地使用它)可知,C项“一个人不应该过毫无意义的生活”与句意一致,故答案为C项。A、B、D项均与原文内容不符。
