Unit 2 Wish you were here 一、阅读理解。Grey clouds move as low as smoke over the treetops at Lolo Pass. The ground is white. The day is June 10.It has been snowing for the past four days in the Bitterroot Mountains. Wayne Fairchild is getting worried about our trek over the Lolo Trail-95 miles from Lolo Montana to Weippe in Idaho, across the roughest country in the West. Lewis and Clark were nearly defeated 200 years ago by snowstorms on the Lolo. Today Fairchild is nervously checking the weather reports. He has agreed to take me across the toughest, middle section of the trail.When Lewis climbed on top of Lemhi Pass,140 miles south of Missoula, on Aug.12,1805,he was astonished by what was in front of him; high mountain chains still to the West of us with their tops partially covered with snow. Nobody in what was then the US knew the Rocky Mountains existed, with peaks twice as high as anything in the Appalachians back East.Today their pathway through those mountains holds more attraction than any other ground over which they traveled, for its raw wilderness is an evidence to the character of two cultures: the explorers who braved its hardships and the Native Americans who prize and conserve the path as a sacred (神圣的)gift. It remains today the same condition as when Lewis and Clark walked it.The Lolo is passable only from July to mid-September. Our luck is holding with the weather, although the snow keeps getting deeper. As we climb to Indian Post Office, the highest point on the trail at 7,033 ft, we have covered 13 miles in soft snow, and we hardly have enough energy to make dinner. After a meal of chicken, I sit on a rock on top of the ridge (山脊).There is no light visible in any direction, not even another campfire. For four days we do not see another human being. We are occupied with the things that mix fear with joy. In our imagination we have finally caught up with Lewis and Clark.1. We learn from the text that before 1805 .A. The Rocky Mountains were wholly covered with snowB. there were no people living in the western part of AmericaC.no Americans knew of the existence of the Rocky MountainsD. the Appalachians were the western frontier of the United States2.We learn from the text that the Lolo Pass .A. has changed a lot since 1805 B.is the meeting point of three culturesC. remains much the same as it was 200 years ago D. now attracts a large number of tourists to visit3.Judging from the text, Lewis and Clark were most probably .A. two native Indians B. explorers of the early 19th centuryC. merchants who did business with the IndiansD. travelers whose curiosity took them over the Lolo Pass4.We can infer from the text that when crossing the Lolo Pass the author .A. was attempting the impossible B. was trying to set a world recordC. was following the trail of Lewis and Clark D. was fighting with weather and taking unnecessary risks【文章大意】本文纪录的是一次追寻前人足迹的探险,尽管天气、路程等的艰难,但是在作者看来却是已经赶上了以前的探险者。1.C 【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段Nobody in what was then the US knew the Rocky Mountains existed, with peaks twice as high as anything in the Appalachians back East.可知答案为C。2.C 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句It remains today the same condition as when Lewis and Clark walked it.可知答案为C。4.C 【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段的描述可知,作者他们是沿着Lewis and Clark的足迹进行探险的。二、单项填空1.Busy with their business, they had no time to _ their wedding, so they had it organized by a company.A.accelerate B.arrange C.approve D.acknowledge【答案】B【解析】句意:他们没有时间安排婚礼。accelerate庆祝;arrange安排;approve赞同;acknowledge意识到。故选B。2.Reports from Chad suggest that rebel forces are _ on the capitalA. attacking B. advancingC. contradicting D. reflecting【答案】B【解析】advance前进;attack及物动词:袭击,攻击。句意:来自乍得的报告显示叛军正向首都推进。3.In order to rescue the miners caught in the flood quickly, the rescuers have got a busy _.
