Wilson, 28 years old, had just gotten off the cable car (索道纜車) at the Arapahoe Basin Ski Area in Keystone, Colorado, along with his friends Billy Simmons and Hans Mueller. Their friend Richard had been on the cable car ahead of them, but when the men reached the top of the lift, he had disappeared. The men walked toward the source of the scream and found skiers stopped on the slope, pointing to the cable car. And then the friends screamed too. Oh, Richard! yelled Mueller. When Richard had tried to jump off the cable car, his backpack had been caught in the chair, which then dragged him back down the hill. In the process, the backpack belt twisted around his neck, making him breathless. Now Richard39。s body was swinging four feet above the snow. The cable car operator had quickly stopped it, and the friends kicked off their skis and ran toward the scene. They made a human pyramid to try to reach Richard, but the unconscious man was too far off the ground. With the clock ticking, Wilson ran to the ladder of a nearby lift tower. Scared skiers watched as he struggled the 25 feet. After he reached the top, Wilson39。s first challenge was to climb onto the twoinch steel cable that held the chairs. He handled the balance and height bravely, but he knew he could not walk on the cable. Therefore, he calmed down and sat over it and then used his hands to pull himself to Richard quickly. Wilson39。s greatest fear wasn39。t that he39。d fall, but that he wouldn39。t reach Richard. This was life or death, he said. When he reached Richard39。s chair, Wilson swung a leg over the cable and attempted to drop down onto it. But as he did that, his jacket caught on the movable footrest, which was in the up position. The footrest began to slide down, with Wilson attached. But before that could happen, he managed to free himself and reached Richard. Fortunately, the ski patrol (巡查) had gathered below and performed emergency treatment on Richard, who had been hanging for about five minutes, then skied him down to an ambulance. That night, Richard called from the hospital to express his thanks to Wilson, his other friends and the workers at the Arapahoe Basin Ski Area.（1）What happened to Richard when he tried to jump off the cable car?

But as he did that, his jacket caught on the movable footrest, which was in the up position. The footrest began to slide down, with Wilson attached. But before that could happen, he managed to free himself and reached Richard.”當(dāng)威爾遜觸到理查德的椅子時(shí)，他把一條腿甩過纜繩，試圖跳到上面。但是當(dāng)他那樣做的時(shí)候，他的夾克被活動(dòng)腳踏板給掛住了。腳踏板在上面，然后掛著威爾遜開始向下滑。但他及時(shí)讓自己擺脫困境，夠到了理查德，這段主要描述了Wilson救人的經(jīng)過，且場(chǎng)面驚險(xiǎn)，稍有不慎可能威爾遜自己也會(huì)受傷，所以這段描寫主要突出救人的危險(xiǎn)。故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章大意可知，Wilson能在那個(gè)危急時(shí)刻去求Richard表現(xiàn)他的勇敢；在5分鐘內(nèi)能想到可行的方法，說明Richard處亂不驚，沉著冷靜。綜上所述，面臨危險(xiǎn)勇敢，冷靜才能化險(xiǎn)為夷。故選C。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 The siesta petition took place in a supermarket, with plenty of shoppers, screaming babies, talking voices, and footsteps to take the petitors39。 attention away from their after lunch sleeps. Five bright blue sofas were laid out, and five petitors at a time were allowed to take a 20minute sleep. A doctor measured their pulse to time how long they actually spent on asleep. Competitors earned extra points for snoring (打鼾), sleeping in strange positions, or wearing silly pajamas (睡衣). The winners of each round advance to the next stage in the petition. It39。s amazing that any of those people would fall asleep in the middle of such a busy place, while on couches that they are not used to. Yet, many of them did. They hugged pillows or soft toy bears. They covered their eyes with sleep masks, too. Whatever it took to help them fall asleep fast and stay asleep. The siesta is a tradition in Spain that many feel is being forgotten. It used to be that people would take a brief nap after lunch every day. This would energize them, and keep them going for the rest of the day. Not to mention the health benefits of a good nap. But, that39。s all changing. People are too busy making money or watching gossip shows on TV after lunch to care about taking a nap. The National Association of Friends of the Siesta wants to bring Spain back to their traditional roots. They are doing this by having the siesta petition. They set up the petition to reward the best sleepers with money. Actually, they were paid to sleep. There are really healt
