【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 to me: family, of course, and friends. But then what? No matter how many times I thought about it, no bucket list was plete without travel. Then I had to decide how I might manage the risk. I had to decide how lucky I felt. My return to travel after my stroke came in baby steps. The first real test of my travel courage came nine months after my stroke when I joined my husband, Jack, on a business trip to China. After we39。d toured the remains of a Tang dynasty temple on a high mountain, Jack wanted to ride down on a toboggan (長雪橇). Before the stroke it would39。ve seemed like fun. But now? I hesitated. My mental klaxon (高音喇叭) screamed warnings about the consequences of a cut, a fall, and a crash. Then, gaining confidence from who knows where, I lowered myself carefully into the toboggan, which marked my adventure travel eback. In the years since then, I39。ve traveled about twentyfive percent of the time. Through it all, my lucks held out—no deadly falls, no car accidents or serious infections. For me, adventure travel is a risk worth taking. Travel broadens my world and keeps me connected to nature. What39。s more, saying yes to travel keeps me connected to myself.（1）What does the underlined word perilous in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

Travel broadens my world and keeps me connected to nature. What39。s more, saying yes to travel keeps me connected to myself.”對我來說，冒險旅行是值得冒險的。旅行開闊了我的世界，使我與大自然保持聯(lián)系。更重要的是，對旅行說“是”讓我和自己保持聯(lián)系?！笨芍?，本文講述的是去中國的一次旅行。故選C。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及推理判斷，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，要求考生根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 I was having a great morning until I sat down in front of my office puter. Your password has expired(過期), a server message flashed on my screen, with instructions for changing it. Coming up with a new code doesn39。t seem like a big deal, unless you work at my pany, where we have to change it monthly, using at least one uppercase character, one lowercase character, one symbol, and one numeral. Oh, and the whole darn thing can39。t be fewer than eight characters. And I can39。t use any of the same passwords I39。ve used in the past three months. Suddenly I was furious. What didn39。t make it any better was that I was deeply depressed after my recent divorce. Disbelief over what she had done to me was all I thought about. Every day. My anger didn39。t mean anything to the empty input field with a pulsating cursor (閃動的光標(biāo)), waiting for me to type a password that I39。d have to reenter — many times — for the next 30 days. I remembered a tip I39。d heard from my former boss. He39。d said, I39。m going to use a password to change my life. I couldn39。t focus on getting things done in my current mood. There were clear indicators of what I needed to do to regain control of my life, but I couldn39。t notice them. My password became the indicator. My password reminded me that I shouldn39。t let myself be a victim of my recent breakup and that I was strong enough to do something about it. I made my password Forgive@h3r. I had to type this statement several times a day. Each time my puter would lock. Each time my screen saver with her photo would appear. Each time I would e back from eating lunch alone. In my mind, I wrote Forgive her every day. The simple action changed the way I looked at my exwife. That constant reminder of reconciliation led me to accept the way things had happened at the end of my marriage and embrace a new way of dealing with my depression. As the month wore on, I felt a slow healing begin to take place. By the time my server prompted me to reset my password the following month, I felt free. One month later, my dear Exchange server asked me yet again to reset my password. I thought about the next thing that I had to get done. My password became Quit@smoking4ever. I quit smoking overnight. This password was a painful one to type during that month, but doing it helped me to yell at myself in my mind as I typed that statement. It motivated me to follow my monthly goal.16
