We humans like to conquer things.
For the same reason that soccer players want to hold the World Cup trophy（奖杯）and tennis players crave a Grand Slam win, mountaineers dream of reaching the highest peak on the planet-Mount Qomolangma, which is about 8,848 meters above sea level.
"Everybody wants to stand on top of the world, "Mirza Ali from Pakistan who had just conquered" Mount Qomolangma, told the Los Angeles Times.
However, this desire to conquer Mount Qomolangma has become so strong that we have begun to travel in the wrong direction.
During this year's climbing season-from March to May-at least 11 climbers died in the Himalayas, making it one of the worst seasons on record. And the fact that many of the climbers were inexperienced is one of the major factors contributing to the tragedy, according to USA Today.
"They don't train very hard. They underestimate （低估）Qomolangma, " Jangbu Sherpa, who has been working as a guide on Mount Qomolangma since 2006, told NBC News. "There are lots of climbers who just want to check the box so that they can say they've been to the top of the world. "
This ignorant attitude of climbers also leads to other problems-apart from putting their own lives at risk, of course. According to The Huffington Post, the mountain's cleaning group collected 12 tons of trash-including food wrappers（包装袋）, and oxygen tanks-left behind this climbing season. This once holy（神圣的）and peaceful corner of the world has, as The Atlantic reporter Margaret Grebowics put it, lost its magic.
Perhaps what we should do now is restore the meaning of the activity itself-the real meaning. And for Alison Levine, a US mountaineer who reached the summit（山顶）of Mount Qomolangma in 20l0, the meaning doesn't come with the summit itself, but with everything that led her up to it.
It's true that we humans like to conquer things. But the first step of conquering anything is probably to learn to conquer our own greed and ignorance.
5. The underlined word "crave" in Paragraph 3 means "_______".
A. have no interest in
B. have a strong desire for
C. be optimistic about
D. be likely to win
6. What is a major cause of the climbing tragedy this year, according to USA Today
A. Not having enough training and experience.
B. Not bringing enough oxygen tanks.
C. Not having professional climbing equipment.
D. Not being accustomed to the cold weather.
7. What matters more to Levine when she climbs
A. Being on top of the world.
B. Being able to change the world.
C. The journey to reach the summit.
D. The spirit to conquer the summit.
8. What attitude does the author hold toward climbing Mount Qomolangma
A. Regretful.
B. Critical.
C. Encouraging.
D. Doubtful.

参考答案：
一、阅读理解
A
语篇解读：这篇文章主要讲述了Smiths一家四口环游世界的故事。Smiths夫妇带着自己的一对儿女通过长期旅行的方式接近这个世界，遇见了更多的人，同时也学会了很多日常生活中体会不到的东西。
1.B细节理解题。根据第一段可知一般的家庭通常是在假期带孩子出去旅游几天或几周，但是史密斯一家人在进行为期一年的全球旅行。
2.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的Eleven-year-old Tyler says he has enjoyed learning about the people they have met. Tyler认为在旅行期间了解他们遇到的人是有趣的。
3.A细节理解题。根据第三段中的Mrs. Smith left her job and her husband is using unpaid leave.可知史密斯先生并没有辞去工作，而是停薪留职。A项“他们辞去了工作”是不正确的，故选A。
4.B推理判断题。本段最后一句话意为：反而更重要的是我们作为一个家庭创造了这些记忆，并把它们带在身边。因此those指代这些记忆。A项“他们携带的小袋子”；C项“她背上的东西”；D项“家里的东西”。
B
语篇解读：这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了许多登山者的梦想就是登上珠穆朗玛峰，然而一些登山者低估了珠穆朗玛峰，他们不认真训练而酿成了悲剧。珠穆朗玛峰上有许多登山者留下的垃圾，从而引发了关于攀登的真正含义的讨论，这应是一场旅行而不是征服。
5.B词义猜测题。画线单词所在句中，“and”表示并列关系即画线单词“crave”应与之前的“want to”，之后的“dream of”表达的含义相同，即“想要；梦想要做某事”，选项B“have a strong desire for（对……有强烈的愿望）”与之相符。故选B项。A项“对……没有兴趣”，C项“对……感到乐观”和D项“可能赢”均不符合题意。
6.A细节理解题。根据文章第五段中的“And the fact that many of the climbers were inexperienced is one of the major factors contributing to the tragedy, according to USA Today. 第六段中的They don't train very hard可知，许多登山者缺乏经验和训练是造成这场灾难的主要原因之一。故选A项。
7.C细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中The journey is the most important thing.（旅途是最重要的事情。）可知，对于Levine来说，登峰的旅程是更重要的事情。故选C项。根据倒数第二段中“When I did make it to the summit, what I realized is that standing on top of a mountain doesn't change you and doesn't change the world,”可知，当Levine登顶的时候，她意识到站在山顶不会改变一个人，也不会改变世界。故A项“在世界的最高处”，B项“能够改变世界”均不符合题意，D项“征服顶峰的精神”也未在Levine的谈话中提及。
8.B推理判断题。根据文章末尾段中的But the first step of conquering anything is probably to learn to conquer our own greed and ignorance.（但是，征服任何事物的第一步可能就是学会征服我们自己的贪婪和无知。）可知，在作者看来征服珠穆朗玛峰是人类“天性”的征服欲的体现，作者用贪婪和无知描述了他们在攀登时的态度。由此可推知，作者的态度应是批判的。故选B项。A项“后悔的，遗憾的”，C项“令人鼓舞的”和D项“怀疑的”均不符合题意。
