While it is famous for its beautiful views, parts of the mountain are facing a problem: rubbish. Every year, thousands of visitors throw away tons of rubbish, such as bottles and plastic bags.‎ According to the UN, over 140 tons of rubbish has been left on the mountain. To reduce rubbish, China is limiting(限制) the number of people who are allowed to climb up the north side of the mountain. Only 300 people will be allowed to climb it, and only during spring.‎ Local people cleaned the mountain last year,removing rubbish at a height of 5,200 meters. They collected about 8.4 metric tons(公吨) of rubbish.‎ This year, the local government plans to spend 4 million yuan on a new clean-up activity. The local government is also setting up stations to sort (分类), recycle and break down rubbish collected 6‎ ‎ from the mountain. A group of artists will also try to turn the rubbish into art works. They will show these works of art to remind people not to leave rubbish when climbing the mountain.‎ ‎26.What problem are parts of Mount Qomolangma facing?(　　)‎ A. Air pollution. B.Rubbish. C.Noise.

He, however, suggests we view quitting differently. ‎ ‎　　Quitting is like deciding to rearrange a room: you've grown comfortable with the status, and it can be hard to picture the end result or even see why change is necessary. And yet, there's the upsetting feeling that you're no longer entirely satisfied with your current circumstances, perhaps even that you've stopped making progress. While it's not out of the question for feelings of regret to surface after a major refit, leaving a position, project or situation can reveal exciting possibilities, making you feel inspired and renewed. ‎ ‎　　Quitting often happens in situations where we are unhappy, fearful or have determined we have no other choices, factors that can have ill effects on our health. Perhaps you find your work unfulfilling, or you've jumped into a new relationship before you're ready—and, as a result, you're operating under intense pressure. “If stress is enduring and not managed well, it can start to take a toll,” says Meek. According to the American Psychological Association, long-term, ongoing stress can increase the risk for high blood pressure and heart attack, so walking away from whatever is causing it can deliver significant physical and emotional health benefits. “We often see a reduction in the stress hormone cortisol(应激激素皮质醇), which can lower blood pressure and may 6‎ ‎ even decrease the heart rate,” says Dr Alex Lickerman, a GP and expert on developing mental adaptability.  ‎ ‎　　Leaving situations that fail to bring you joy can leave you with sufficient time to explore where your heart is truly leading you. In a study that was published in 1999, then Harvard University professor Hermina Ibarra looked at how bankers tried different roles that required new skill sets—someone who spent a lot of time dealing with computers, for instance, was asked to take on personal interactions. Subjects(研究对象) were especially drawn to acting out a version of their future selves through ‘imitation strategies’—an approach they compared to ‘trying on different clothes’. Mark Franklin, the president of Career Cycles, suggests a similar approach as a way to figure out what your true desires might be in your post-quitting life and foresee your future self. “Pretend to be a certain kind of person, or go and meet others who are doing what you want to do,” he says. “Try it on, see how it feels and decide if it's a good fit for you.” It may not feel like it at the time, but just moving on from a situation that's not quite right can help you get back on track. ‎ ‎30.It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that quitting may bring us feelings of being both 　　　　. (　　) ‎ A.guilty and ashamed B.stupid and enthusiastic C.troubled and hopeful D.inspired and determined ‎31.The phrase “take a toll” (Paragraph 3) can be best replaced by “　　　　”. (　　) ‎ A.develop mental adaptability B.bring about changes C.keep up the pressure D.have a bad effect ‎32.An approach suggested by Mark Franklin similar to ‘trying on different clothes' is for 　　　　. (　　)  ‎ A.helping people find what truly suits them in career B.telling capable employees from inadequate ones C.training employees to acquire different working skills D.providing people with opportunities to have a role play ‎33.It can be concluded from the passage that 　　　　. (　　) ‎ A.quitting is a track that only the timid will choose to follow B.personal interaction can be a must for reducing emotional pressure 6‎ C.mental adaptability can be improved by the stress hormone cortisol D.knowing when to stop is wise and may make dreams happen ‎【参考答案】‎ Ⅰ.A)1—5　AABCD　6—10　BCDAB 11—15　BACDC B)16.vegetables　17.play　18.born　19.quickly　20.why　21.to turn　‎ ‎22.because　23.market　24.makes　25.concert Ⅱ.Passage 1　[主旨大意]本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是珠峰目前面临的最大问题是到处丢的垃圾,以及针对这一问题人们采取的措施。‎ ‎26.B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“…parts of the mountain are facing a problem: rubbish.”,可知珠峰现在面临的问题是垃圾污染。故选B。‎ ‎27.D　词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Local people cleaned the mountain last year”和“They collected about 8.4 metric tons of rubbish.”可知,当地人要上山去清理垃圾,那么removing的意思就是“带走(take away)”。故选D。‎ ‎28.D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“A group of artists will also try to turn the rubbish into art works. They will show these works of art to remind people not to leave rubbish when climbing the mountain.”可知,艺术家们通过自己的绘画作品提醒人们在攀登珠峰的时候,不要丢弃垃圾。故选D。‎ ‎29.B　体裁判断题。通读全文可知,这是一篇对于珠峰现在面临的环境污染问题的一个新闻报道。故选B。‎ Passage 2　[主旨大意]本文属于说明文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了放弃尽管难受但是充满希望。‎ ‎30.C　细节理解题。根据“While it's not out of the question for feelings of regret to surface after a major refit,leaving a position,project or situation can reveal exciting possibilities,making you feel inspired and renewed.”在一次重大整修之后,感觉不后悔是不可能的,离开一个职位、项目或情况可以揭示令人兴奋的可能性,让你感到鼓舞和焕然一新。因此放弃是难受但充满希望的。故选C。‎ ‎31.D　词义猜测题。根据“If stress is enduring and not managed well, it can start to take a toll.” 可知如果压力是持久的,没有管理好,就会产生坏的影响。故选D。‎ ‎32.A　细节理解题。根据“‘Try it on,see how it feels and decide if it's a good fit for you.’ It ‎ 6‎ may not feel like it at the time,but just moving on from a situation that's not quite right can help you get back on track.”试试它,看看它的感觉如何,然后决定它是否适合你。故选A。‎ ‎33.D　细节理解题。根据“Leaving situations that fail to bring you joy can leave you with sufficient time to explore where your heart is truly leading you.”离开那些没有给你带来快乐的情况,给自己足够的时间去探索自己的心真正向往的地方。由此可知知道适时停止是很明智的甚至可能帮助你实现梦想。故选D。‎ 6‎
