Making My Own Bicycle
It was a Saturday morning. James and I were at the Bamboo Bicycle Club, ready for our bamboo bicycle building course.

The rest of the afternoon was spent 3 each piece of the frame into the structure. Bamboo is fairly flexible, and this particular 4 meant that some adjustments were really necessary. One problem lining up the two chains causes 5 made our frame useless. Luckily, however, after some careful 6 , we confirmed that it was alright. There was just enough space to fit a wheel.
On Sunday morning we returned to the workshop to complete the final 7 . We began to tightly wrap each joint on the frame, to keep it 8 with natural fibers kept in special glue. All that was left now was for it to dry. In a few hours we would be official members of the Bamboo Bicycle Club.

I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic (现实的) is the dream
Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in huge tower blocks, noisy, dirty and unfriendly. The sense of belonging to a group tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. Strangely enough, nowadays people on the same floor don’t even say hello to each other.
Country life, on the other hand, differs in that a sense of group generally unites the people of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But it is also true that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on a trip to the nearest large town. The city people are often worried by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.
What, then, is the answer The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off. The city raises a feeling of loneliness, and constant noise beats the senses. But you are at the centre of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half-past nine at night. Some people have found or rather bought a solution between the two: they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the cities and moving to villages within commuting (通勤) distance of large cities.
What then of my dream I’m eager for the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby. I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those energetic males down the farm No, he would rather have the electric fire any evening.
24．Which of the following makes city people unhappy
A．Colorful life. B．A sense of group. C．Close neighborhood. D．A feeling of loneliness.
25．What is difficult to buy in the country
A．Designer clothes. B．Farming tools. C．Daily supplies. D．Fresh vegetables.
26．We can infer from the passage the author ________.
A．enjoys living in huge tower blocks B．is in two minds
C．will continue his life in the city D．will move to the country

Early on, Sandra Marshall showed a talent and love for art. A New York native, Sandra owes her passion for art, and her thirst for learning, to childhood trips into New York City to visit the museums, and galleries.
After Sandra received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Arizona State University, she worked as a portrait painter and mural (壁画) artist but turned to food art when her daughter declared she would no longer eat meat. Sandra started exploring with fruits and vegetables to make cooking more fun, and was inspired by the colors of nature. She would write stories about her dinnertime art pieces so her children would see the magic in produce.
In 2014, Sandra opened a studio called Be...An Artist Studio, which welcomed artists to come and learn many different types of art. Paint nights, sculpting nights, live entertainment and eventually a cooking school, all came together and helped to bring the community creating together. She was featured on many television networks displaying her passions for the arts. Sandra began posting her creations on social media which led to her first published book One Hot Night at the Veggie Bar.
In 2019, Sandra closed her studio to expand and bring art to more people. This also gave her more time to create and explore he town art, including her food art. Sandra hosted painting events, painting with thousands of people at her large Be...An Artist events, such as the National Football League’s owners meeting in 2019 where she painted with the NFL owners and their families.
Sandra is now working with schools, bringing the joy of creating to children and their families with her “Success For All” painting programs that n re supported by the sales of her food art books and grants given to the schools. Last year alone, she painted with thousands of children and their families over Zoom.

Historical accounts often described the now-extinct California grizzly bears as huge beasts ready to attack humans and livestock at any time. But according to a new paper, scientists say the truth might have been less dramatic: The bears ate a mostly vegetarian diet and were smaller than previously described. California grizzly bears once roamed in the Golden State. But European settlers often hunted, poisoned and trapped the creatures. Over time, because of these human activities, the California grizzly population declined. The last reliable sighting of a California grizzly bear occurred 100 years ago in 1924, and the animals disappeared completely sometime after that.
Researchers wanted to get a better understanding of the factors that accelerated the bears’ extinction. They also hoped to gain more insight into the creatures’ behavior, size and diet. To do so, they turned to documents and California grizzly specimens in natural history collections. They measured the animals’ skulls and teeth and analyzed their bones and pelts. The researchers found that California grizzly bears were much smaller than the 2,000 pounds often reported at the time. Historical accounts might not necessarily have been wrong, but they might have only included the largest bears. In addition, analyses of the animals’ bones and skins suggest the bears were primarily eating plants, which stands in contrast to their fear some hyper carnivorous (超级食肉的) reputation. “The bears likely increased meat consumption due to landscape changes coupled with the arrival of livestock,” says study co-author Alexis Mychajliw. However, researchers found the animals still ate a majority vegetarian diet and killed far less livestock than historical accounts suggested.
By digging beyond the bears’ reputation, the researchers gained a more accurate understanding of the California grizzly’s biology and natural history. And since scientists and land managers often rely on historical accounts when reintroducing animals to their former habitats, the study serves as a reminder that those old newspapers and journals do not tell the whole story.
31．What does the underlined word “roamed” in paragraph 1 mean
A．Disappeared. B．Declined. C．Fought. D．Wandered.
32．What did the researchers discover about California grizzly bears
A．They mainly fed on livestock.
B．Their diet consisted mostly of plants.
C．They ate a balanced diet of plants and meat.
D．The absence of livestock changed their dietary habit.
33．What can we learn about historical accounts of animals from the last paragraph
A．They are unique. B．They are one-sided.
C．They are accurate. D．They are comprehensive.
34．What is the text mainly about
A．The natural habitats of California grizzly bears.
B．The extinction process of California grizzly bears.
C．The reveal of the truth of California grizzly bears.
D．The significance of the arrival of California grizzly bears.

Crowd control could soon become an important skill for climbers on Mount Everest, as important as physical strength or watching the weather. In a single day last week, nearly 40 people reached the top of the world — a record. Reports from base camp spoke of queues at dangerous ridges and crowds as people passed each other in the final dash for the 8,848 meters top.
More traditional mountaineers have been concerned about the circus atmosphere surrounding Everest in recent years, and there are warnings that the crowds are making the mountain more dangerous. In 1996, 14 died on the mountain when the members of several groups were trapped at high altitudes by sudden snowstorms. Bad weather in early May led to this year’s jam on the summit ridge, but the loss, luckily, was light. Just four climbers died, including a Nepali Sherpa who had made 11 previous successful climbing.
Traditionalists are also worried about the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain. This year’s crop of mountaineers included the oldest man, 64-year-old Sherman Bull from Connecticut, and the youngest, 16-year-old Temba Tsheri Sherpa of Nepal. An American with only one arm was on the mountain this year; an Indian with no legs also tried but failed. Erik Weihennieyer, an American, became the first blind person to reach the top of the world. His fellow climbers stayed in front of him on the way up, describing the type of land and ringing bells.
Nepal views Mount Everest as something of a cash cow. The government charges journeys a minimum of $70,000. That is probably why officials in Katmandu are ignoring concerns about overcrowding and talking about even more climbers coming next year. But a celebration of the 48th anniversary of the first conquest of Everest, by Sir Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, was cancelled after violent strikes. Tumultuous (动乱的) Nepali politics, it seems, could be just the crowd-control measure that Everest needs.
40．According to the author, what skills are important for climbers on Mount Everest
41．What are traditional mountaineers worried about
42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
●The Nepal government cares little about the overcrowding problem because of its internal tumultuous politics.
43．Do you think it is a good idea to limit the number of visitors to a tourist attraction Why

I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic (现实的) is the dream
Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in huge tower blocks, noisy, dirty and unfriendly. The sense of belonging to a group tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. Strangely enough, nowadays people on the same floor don’t even say hello to each other.
Country life, on the other hand, differs in that a sense of group generally unites the people of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But it is also true that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on a trip to the nearest large town. The city people are often worried by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.
What, then, is the answer The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off. The city raises a feeling of loneliness, and constant noise beats the senses. But you are at the centre of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half-past nine at night. Some people have found or rather bought a solution between the two: they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the cities and moving to villages within commuting (通勤) distance of large cities.
What then of my dream I’m eager for the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby. I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those energetic males down the farm No, he would rather have the electric fire any evening.
24．Which of the following makes city people unhappy
A．Colorful life. B．A sense of group. C．Close neighborhood. D．A feeling of loneliness.
25．What is difficult to buy in the country
A．Designer clothes. B．Farming tools. C．Daily supplies. D．Fresh vegetables.
26．We can infer from the passage the author ________.
A．enjoys living in huge tower blocks B．is in two minds
C．will continue his life in the city D．will move to the country
【答案】24．D 25．A 26．C
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了城市生活和乡村生活的优缺点。作者对乡村生活抱有向往，但又担心离开城市会带来不便。作者最后提到一些人通过搬到靠近大城市的村庄来寻求城乡结合的平衡。
24．推理判断题。根据第二段中“The sense of belonging to a group tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. Strangely enough, nowadays people on the same floor don’t even say hello to each other.(当你住在15层楼上时，群体归属感往往会消失。奇怪的是，现在同一层楼的人甚至不互相打招呼)”、第三段中“The city people are often worried by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.(城里人常常被一种难以忍受的寂静和宁静所困扰)”和第四段中“The city raises a feeling of loneliness(这座城市给人一种孤独的感觉)”可推知，城市生活的人没有群体归属感，被难以忍受的寂静和宁静所困扰，城市给人的孤独感使城市里的人不快乐。故选D项。
25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“But it is also true that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on a trip to the nearest large town.(但你与城市里发生的激动人心的重要事件隔绝也是事实。购物成了一个大问题，如果要买任何稍微不寻常的东西，你就得去最近的大城市)”可知，在乡村生活购物是一个大问题，名牌服装之类的特别商品很难买到。故选A项。
26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“What then of my dream I’m eager for the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby. I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those energetic males down the farm No, he would rather have the electric fire any evening.(那我的梦想呢 我渴望这个主意，但是，你看看我的猫，托比。我根本不敢确定它会喜欢在长长的草丛里呼吸新鲜空气和运动。你能想象它和农场里那些精力充沛的公猫混在一起吗 不，它宁愿每晚都呆在电暖炉旁)”可知，作者借自己的猫来表达自己的想法，比起回归自然，他更愿意生活在有电暖炉的城市，所以作者会继续在城里生活。故选C项。
C

D
Historical accounts often described the now-extinct California grizzly bears as huge beasts ready to attack humans and livestock at any time. But according to a new paper, scientists say the truth might have been less dramatic: The bears ate a mostly vegetarian diet and were smaller than previously described. California grizzly bears once roamed in the Golden State. But European settlers often hunted, poisoned and trapped the creatures. Over time, because of these human activities, the California grizzly population declined. The last reliable sighting of a California grizzly bear occurred 100 years ago in 1924, and the animals disappeared completely sometime after that.
Researchers wanted to get a better understanding of the factors that accelerated the bears’ extinction. They also hoped to gain more insight into the creatures’ behavior, size and diet. To do so, they turned to documents and California grizzly specimens in natural history collections. They measured the animals’ skulls and teeth and analyzed their bones and pelts. The researchers found that California grizzly bears were much smaller than the 2,000 pounds often reported at the time. Historical accounts might not necessarily have been wrong, but they might have only included the largest bears. In addition, analyses of the animals’ bones and skins suggest the bears were primarily eating plants, which stands in contrast to their fear some hyper carnivorous (超级食肉的) reputation. “The bears likely increased meat consumption due to landscape changes coupled with the arrival of livestock,” says study co-author Alexis Mychajliw. However, researchers found the animals still ate a majority vegetarian diet and killed far less livestock than historical accounts suggested.
By digging beyond the bears’ reputation, the researchers gained a more accurate understanding of the California grizzly’s biology and natural history. And since scientists and land managers often rely on historical accounts when reintroducing animals to their former habitats, the study serves as a reminder that those old newspapers and journals do not tell the whole story.
31．What does the underlined word “roamed” in paragraph 1 mean
A．Disappeared. B．Declined. C．Fought. D．Wandered.
32．What did the researchers discover about California grizzly bears
A．They mainly fed on livestock.
B．Their diet consisted mostly of plants.
C．They ate a balanced diet of plants and meat.
D．The absence of livestock changed their dietary habit.
33．What can we learn about historical accounts of animals from the last paragraph
A．They are unique. B．They are one-sided.
C．They are accurate. D．They are comprehensive.
34．What is the text mainly about
A．The natural habitats of California grizzly bears.
B．The extinction process of California grizzly bears.
C．The reveal of the truth of California grizzly bears.
D．The significance of the arrival of California grizzly bears.
【答案】31．D 32．B 33．B 34．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍研究揭示了一些关于加州灰熊的真相——主要吃素食，比之前描述的要小，因此对动物的历史纪录有可能是片面的，不完全的。
31．词句猜测题。根据划线词下句“But European settlers often hunted, poisoned and trapped the creatures. Over time, because of these human activities, the California grizzly population declined.(但欧洲殖民者经常猎杀、毒死和诱捕这些生物。随着时间的推移，由于这些人类活动，加州灰熊的数量下降了)”可知，加州灰熊曾经数量很多，随处游荡。由此猜测roamed意为“游荡”，与wandered同义。故选D。
32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“In addition, analyses of the animals’ bones and skins suggest the bears were primarily eating plants, which stands in contrast to their fear some hyper carnivorous (超级食肉的) reputation.(此外，对动物骨骼和皮肤的分析表明，熊主要以植物为食，这与它们可怕的超级食肉动物的名声形成了对比)”可知，研究发现灰熊主要以植物为食。故选B。
33．推理判断题。根据最后一段“By digging beyond the bears’ reputation, the researchers gained a more accurate understanding of the California grizzly’s biology and natural history. And since scientists and land managers often rely on historical accounts when reintroducing animals to their former habitats, the study serves as a reminder that those old newspapers and journals do not tell the whole story.(通过深入研究灰熊的名声，研究人员对加州灰熊的生物学和自然历史有了更准确的了解。由于科学家和土地管理者在将动物重新引入它们以前的栖息地时经常依赖于历史记录，这项研究提醒人们，那些旧报纸和期刊并没有讲述整个故事)”推知，对动物的历史纪录有可能是片面的，并不完整和准确。故选B。
34．主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段中“Historical accounts often described the now-extinct California grizzly bears as huge beasts ready to attack humans and livestock at any time. But according to a new paper, scientists say the truth might have been less dramatic: The bears ate a mostly vegetarian diet and were smaller than previously described.(历史记载经常将现已灭绝的加利福尼亚灰熊描述为随时准备攻击人类和牲畜的巨大野兽。但根据一篇新的论文，科学家们说真相可能没有那么戏剧性：这些熊主要吃素食，比之前描述的要小)”可知，文章主要介绍研究揭示了一些关于加州灰熊的真相——主要吃素食，比之前描述的要小。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，共10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Discovering Your True Self Is Vital to Happiness!
Have you found focusing on yourself is at the bottom of the to-do list, because you feel everyone else in your life comes first 35 Now is exactly the perfect time to get to know yourself in order to understand yourself.
This isn’t just about identifying your favorite outfit, haircut or flavor of ice cream. 36 It’s an opportunity for personal growth that can help you make better choices for your wellbeing and lifelong happiness.
There are many tools to help you develop a deeper sense of yourself, including journaling and other forms of creative expression. You can use a guided journal to explore your thoughts and feelings or just free write whatever comes to mind. It’s up to you what you want to do. 37 .
38 Take note of how you respond to people, what makes you happy, and what makes you unhappy. This can help you identify patterns that are holding you back, such as feeling insecure or being easily angered. Once you’ve identified these patterns, you can work to change them.
An often overlooked yet very important factor in self-discovery is having healthy boundaries in your personal life. 39 Clearly communicating your boundaries is also a way to show others that you are in control of your own behavior and can expect the same from them. This is a sign of maturity and respect, two characteristics that are key to having healthy relationships.
A．It’s one thing to know your personality type.
B．It’s a great way to show that you care about others.
C．Taking time for ourselves has been looked down upon.
D．Another way is to observe your behavior in different situations.
E．It allows you to focus on the needs of yourself without ignoring others.
F．But try not to get caught up in the criticism or judgment of your writing.
G．It’s about understanding your inner world and how you fit into the outer world.
【答案】35．C 36．G 37．F 38．D 39．E
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本篇主要讲了探索自己的内心世界对于自己的重要性，文章列举了一些探索自己内心世界方法，并解释了为什么这些方法可以带来更好的人际关系。
35．根据上文“Have you found focusing on yourself is at the bottom of the to-do list, because you feel everyone else in your life comes first (你是否发现关注自己被排在待办事项清单的最后，因为你觉得生活中的其他人都是第一位的？)”可知，上文提到生活中其他人都是第一位，故本句承接上文，说明没有给自己留时间。故C选项“给自己留点时间一直被人看不起”符合语境，故选C。
36．根据上文“This isn’t just about identifying your favorite outfit, haircut or flavor of ice cream.(（关注自己）不仅仅是确定你最喜欢的衣服、发型或冰淇淋的味道)”可知，本句与上文构成转折，指出关注自己的真正含义。前一句的This isn’t just about identifying和G选项It’s about understanding构成句法上的转折关系。故G选项“这是关于了解你的内心世界，以及你如何适应外部世界”符合语境，故选G。
37．根据上文“There are many tools to help you develop a deeper sense of yourself, including journaling and other forms of creative expression. You can use a guided journal to explore your thoughts and feelings or just free write whatever comes to mind. It’s up to you what you want to do.(有很多工具可以帮助你发展更深层次的自我意识，包括日记和其他形式的创造性表达。你可以使用指南来探索你的想法和感受，或者只是自由地写下任何想到的东西。你想做什么由你自己决定)”可知，本段在陈述写日记能够更好地探索你的内心世界，但是仅仅专注于写日记就好， 不要去批判日记中自己的想法。此处的writing与F选项中journaling可以构成同义替换。故F选项“但是尽量不要陷入对你写作的批评或评判中”符合语境，故选F。
38．根据后文“Take note of how you respond to people, what makes you happy, and what makes you unhappy. This can help you identify patterns that are holding you back, such as feeling insecure or being easily angered. Once you’ve identified these patterns, you can work to change them.(注意你对别人的反应，什么让你快乐，什么让你不快乐。这可以帮助你识别阻碍你前进的模式，比如缺乏安全感或容易生气。一旦你确定了这些模式，你就可以努力改变它们)”可知，上一段陈述了一种关注自己内心世界的方法，而本段则是在陈述另外一种方法，因此D选项中Another way is to符合并列的条件，且本句的意思也与后面的“关注自己在人际交往中如何反应”相符合。故D选项“另一种方法是观察你在不同情况下的行为”符合语境，故选D。
39．根据上文“An often overlooked yet very important factor in self-discovery is having healthy boundaries in your personal life.(自我发现的一个经常被忽视但非常重要的因素是在你的个人生活中有健康的界限)”以及后文“Clearly communicating your boundaries is also a way to show others that you are in control of your own behavior and can expect the same from them. This is a sign of maturity and respect, two characteristics that are key to having healthy relationships.(清楚地表达你的界限也是一种向别人表明你能控制自己的行为，并期望他们也能做到这一点的方式。这是成熟和尊重的标志，这两个特征是拥有健康关系的关键)”可知，前一句陈述要划定一个健康的人际关系界限，后一句则提及和别人划清界限意味着你能够很好地控制自己的行为并且也希望别人能够控制好自己的行为，这种行为能够既关注自己也关注别人，故E选项“它能让你专注于自己的需求，而不会忽视他人”符合语境，故选E。
第三部分 书面表达(共两节，32分)
第一节(共4小题;第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分)
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
Crowd control could soon become an important skill for climbers on Mount Everest, as important as physical strength or watching the weather. In a single day last week, nearly 40 people reached the top of the world — a record. Reports from base camp spoke of queues at dangerous ridges and crowds as people passed each other in the final dash for the 8,848 meters top.
More traditional mountaineers have been concerned about the circus atmosphere surrounding Everest in recent years, and there are warnings that the crowds are making the mountain more dangerous. In 1996, 14 died on the mountain when the members of several groups were trapped at high altitudes by sudden snowstorms. Bad weather in early May led to this year’s jam on the summit ridge, but the loss, luckily, was light. Just four climbers died, including a Nepali Sherpa who had made 11 previous successful climbing.
Traditionalists are also worried about the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain. This year’s crop of mountaineers included the oldest man, 64-year-old Sherman Bull from Connecticut, and the youngest, 16-year-old Temba Tsheri Sherpa of Nepal. An American with only one arm was on the mountain this year; an Indian with no legs also tried but failed. Erik Weihennieyer, an American, became the first blind person to reach the top of the world. His fellow climbers stayed in front of him on the way up, describing the type of land and ringing bells.
Nepal views Mount Everest as something of a cash cow. The government charges journeys a minimum of $70,000. That is probably why officials in Katmandu are ignoring concerns about overcrowding and talking about even more climbers coming next year. But a celebration of the 48th anniversary of the first conquest of Everest, by Sir Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, was cancelled after violent strikes. Tumultuous (动乱的) Nepali politics, it seems, could be just the crowd-control measure that Everest needs.
40．According to the author, what skills are important for climbers on Mount Everest
41．What are traditional mountaineers worried about
42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
●The Nepal government cares little about the overcrowding problem because of its internal tumultuous politics.
43．Do you think it is a good idea to limit the number of visitors to a tourist attraction Why
【答案】40．Crowd controls, physical strength and watching the weather. 41．They are worried about the circus atmosphere surrounding Everest in recent years, and the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain.
或They are worried that the crowds are making the mountain more dangerous. They are also worried about the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain. 42．The Nepal government cares little about the overcrowding problem because of its internal tumultuous politics.
According to the passage, the Nepal government cares little about the overcrowding problem because it views Mount Everest as something of a cash cow. 43．Yes, I do. Long queues, limited access, and crowded viewpoints can diminish the enjoyment and create frustration. By controlling the number of visitors, authorities can ensure a more pleasant experience for everyone. Besides, this method can reduce the negative impact on the environment and promote sustainable tourism, allowing for better conservation and management of the site.
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了近年来珠穆朗玛峰的登山者越来越多，导致攀登变得更加危险，而且很多登山者关注创造纪录和个人成就，而不是简单的登山，这使得控制人群成了登山者的重要技能。但是尼泊尔政府将珠峰之旅视作经济收益，不太关心过度拥挤的问题。
40．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Crowd control could soon become an important skill for climbers on Mount Everest, as important as physical strength or watching the weather. (人群控制可能很快就会成为珠穆朗玛峰登山者的一项重要技能，就像体力和观察天气一样重要)”可知，在作者看来，攀登珠穆朗玛峰重要的技能是人群控制、体力和观察天气。故答案为：Crowd controls, physical strength and watching the weather.
41．细节理解题。根据第二段中“More traditional mountaineers have been concerned about the circus atmosphere surrounding Everest in recent years, and there are warnings that the crowds are making the mountain more dangerous. (近年来，更传统的登山者一直担心珠穆朗玛峰周围乱哄哄的人群气氛，有人警告说，人群正在使这座山变得更加危险)”和第三段中“Traditionalists are also worried about the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain. (传统派还担心，越来越多的登山者倾向于创造记录和实现“第一”，而不是简单地登山)”可知，传统的登山者担心两个问题，一是近年来珠穆朗玛峰周围乱哄哄的人群气氛，或者说人群会让这座山变得更加危险，二是登山者越来越倾向于创造记录和实现“第一”，而不是简单地攀登这座山。故答案为：They are worried about the circus atmosphere surrounding Everest in recent years, and the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain.或They are worried that the crowds are making the mountain more dangerous. They are also worried about the growing tendency of climbers to set records and achieve “firsts”, rather than simply climb the mountain.
42．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Nepal views Mount Everest as something of a cash cow. The government charges journeys a minimum of $70,000. That is probably why officials in Katmandu are ignoring concerns about overcrowding and talking about even more climbers coming next year. (尼泊尔视珠穆朗玛峰为摇钱树。政府对旅行收费最低为7万美元。这可能就是为什么加德满都的官员无视对过度拥挤的担忧，谈论明年会有更多的登山者到来)”可知，尼泊尔政府不太关心过度拥挤的问题的原因不是国内政局动荡，而是它将珠穆朗玛峰视为一棵摇钱树。故答案为：The Nepal government cares little about the overcrowding problem because of its internal tumultuous politics. According to the passage, the Nepal government cares little about the overcrowding problem because it views Mount Everest as something of a cash cow.
43．开放性试题。本题的答案不唯一，结合实际情况言之有理即可。例如，可以认为限制旅游景点的游客人数是个好主意，因为排长队、通道有限和观景点拥挤会减少乐趣并产生失落感。通过控制游客数量，有关当局可以确保每个人都有更愉快的体验。此外，这种方法可以减少对环境的负面影响，促进旅游业的可持续发展，从而更好地保护和管理景点。故答案为：Yes, I do. Long queues, limited access, and crowded viewpoints can diminish the enjoyment and create frustration. By controlling the number of visitors, authorities can ensure a more pleasant experience for everyone. Besides, this method can reduce the negative impact on the environment and promote sustainable tourism, allowing for better conservation and management of the site.

【答案】Dear Jim,
How is everything going I am glad to receive your e-mail, in which you asked me about my career plan for the future. Now I am writing to share it with you in detail.
I want to be a journalist.
