The storm moved across and the bolts of lightning were striking far below me now.I waited until I was certain the storm was truly past.I looked over and saw what really got me.There about a halfmile down the trail, I could see my climbing partner snug and warm beneath a rock overhang he had found to wait out the storm.I gathered my pack and headed down the trail to catch up with him.We had a few laughs about it and I realized that with age does come great wisdom!
【语篇解读】 本文为一篇记叙文。作者登上山顶之后,没有及时下山,遇到雷雨,亲身经历了一次被闪电和雷声包围的险情。
1.According to the first two paragraphs, the author ________.
A.persuaded the professor to go climbing with him
B.had planned to climb Mount Massive
C.did not choose the same route as the CMC members
D.was left behind with the professor
答案 D [考查细节理解。根据文章前两段内容可知,作者和他的一个地质学教授的攀爬速度比较慢,因此他们被科罗拉多登山俱乐部的队员们落在了后面。]
2.The underlined word “vacate” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
A.leave
B.reach
C.admire
D.see
答案 A [考查词义猜测。由第三段内容可知,作者他们在正午前后到达山顶,在山顶上吃了午饭并欣赏了壮丽的风景。而一点到两点之间,洛基山会有雷雨。所以在一点的时候,作者他们应该是决定要下山。故画leave“离开”意思最相近。]
