other is there to catch him.They are Wellman, whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rockclimbing accident, and Corbett, an experienced rock climber.Together, they climbed up Half Dome, the famous 2,000foot rock in the Yosemite National Park, through one of the most difficult routes (路线)During the climb, Corbett took the lead, hit in the metal spikes (尖状物) that guided the ropes and climbed up.Then, after Wellman pulled himself up the rope, Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again.This process was repeated time and again, inch by inch, for 13 days.Wellmans job was not easy either.He got himself up the rope through upper body strength alone.In all, Wellman figured that he had done 5,000 pullups up the rope on the climb.However, when the two men first met, they never talked about climbing.“He knew that was how I got injured，” Wellman said.Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again and they started training.Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth.At one point, pieces of rock gave way, and Corbett dropped down quickly.Wellman locked their rope in place, stopping the fall at 20 feet.His quick action probably saved his friends life.“Your partner can save your life you can save your partners life，” Wellman said as the pair received congratulations from friends.“There are real close ties.”语篇解读：友谊能克服困难，甚至挽救生命。Wellman和Corbett的攀岩经历很好地印证了友谊之珍贵。1Which of the following was a challenge for Corbett in climbing Half Dome?ATo climb up to remove the spikes.BTo climb it twice.CTo do 5,000 pullups up the rope.DTo lock the rope in place.解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“.Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again.”可知，Corbett实际上是在同样的高度爬了两次。因此B项正确。2Why did the two men never talk about climbing when they first met?ACorbett was poorly trained.BWellman had lost interest in climbing.CCorbett didnt want to hurt Wellman.DWellman hadnt decided whether to climb again.解析：选C推理判断题。根据文章第五段中的 “He knew that was how I got injured” 可知，Corbett与Wellman 从不谈论关于攀岩的话题是因为Corbett知道Wellman 是如何受伤的，因此不想伤害他。因此C项正确。3What do we know about Wellman?AHe climbed Half Dome by himself.BHe was disabled in a traffic accident.CHe stopped rockclimbing for some time.DHe was saved by Corbett during the climb.解析：选C推理判断题。根据文章第五段中的“Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again and they started training.”可知，Wellman有一段时间不愿攀岩，但是Corbett并没有劝他而是直到Wellman自愿重新开始时才在一起训练。故C项正确。4The main idea of the text is that _.Atwo heads are better than oneBfriendship is precious in lifeCthe disabled should never give upDa man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated解析：选B主旨大意题。根据整篇文章的意思可以知道作者之所以写这篇文章就是想告诉人们友谊在人的一生中是非常珍贵的。故B项正确。BYour friend might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away.Life has changed for millions of children across the world who now make friends online.Whether you use chatrooms (聊天室), QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are part of virtual community (虚拟社会)“I seldom talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ，” said Foxs Shadow, the online nickname used by a Senior 2 girl in China.“Eighty percent of my classmates use QQ after school.”QQ is the biggest messaging service in China.Four million people used it one Saturday night in October, according to Tencent, the company which developed QQ.And Foxs Shadow might well have been one of them.“I log_in on Friday nights, and Saturdays or Sundays when I feel bored.I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week，”she said, “But I hardly talk with strangers, especially boys or men.”Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online.“You dont know who you are talking to.You should always be careful about who you trust online.”Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to know someone very well.Foxs Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face.It was a girl who was a comic (喜剧) fan like herself and they went to a comic show together.A 16yearold Beijing boy, known online as Bart Simon, dislikes QQ users.“I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking about useless things，” he said.Now he chats online in English, using MSN.“I only chat online because Ive got friends in Japan, the USA and Singapore，” he said, “I want to learn more about foreign cultures.” But he spends little time chatting as he sees it as a waste of time and money.“If you are really addicted (沉迷) to it, sometimes you cant listen carefully in class，” he said, “And the friends in your real life are always more important than those socalled friends you meet online.”语篇解读：本文主要是围绕着网上聊天交友展开的。5How many messaging services have been mentioned in the passage?A2.B3.C4.

My mouth fell open and I just looked at him.Roy went bright red.“Ill put it back right now，” he said, and he did so.I turned round and walked out without saying a word.I really hoped that Roy would explain why he had been stealing, but instead he started avoiding me.At the same time, small amounts of money started disappearing from students lockers.I wondered if the thief was Roy but decided not to say anything to anyone.I hoped it wasnt him.Last week our school had a big fair in order to raise money for a charity.It was very successful and by the end of the day, we had made about 500.Our class teacher, Mr White, came and chatted to a group of us that included Roy, and held up a box for us to see.“Theres 500 in here，” he said with a smile.But to our surprise, the next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen.Mr White had left the box in a classroom for a few minutes, and when he came back it had disappeared.The head te
