Part III Reading Comprehensive (2×20)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or

incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A , B , C and D. You

should decide on the best choice and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER

SHEET.

Passage 1

More and more around the world are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of

course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure--those who have climbed

the highest mountains, searched into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across

the greatest oceans.

I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from

a high place 200 meters above the ground with a rope tied to your feet. You fall at up to 150

kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground

Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some people suggest that it is because

life in modern societies has become safe and uninteresting. But in the past, they had to go out and

hunt for food, and diseases could not easily be cured

Nowadays, life offers little excitement. They live and work in safe conditions, they buy food

in shops and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for

some people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping.

61. According to the passage more and more people around the world today_____.

A. are taking part in games that are very safe

B. are aware of the risk of some activities

C. are trying dangerous activities for excitement

A. jump down to the ground without holding to a rope

B. fasten yourself to a rope and fall from a great height

Passage 2

The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a

small single-engined plane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she

ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter failed and she didn't know how high

she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At

times, her plane nearly plunged into the sea.
