2011高考英語閱讀理解匯編 故事類（安徽卷）
（2011安徽卷）C
They are the sort of friends who are so close they trust each other with their lives. If one falls, the other is there to catch him.
They are Wellman, whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing accident, and Corbett, an experienced rock climber. Together, they climbed up Half Dome, the famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National Park, through one of the most difficult routes(路線).
During the climb, Corbett took the lead, hit in the metal spikes（尖狀物）that guided the ropes and climbed up. Then, after Wellman pulled himself up the rope, Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again. This process was repeated time and again, inch by inch, for 13 days. Wellmans job was not easy either. He got himself up the rope through upper body strength alone. In all, Wellman figured that he had done 5,000 pull-ups up the rope on the climb.
However, when the two men first met, they never talked about climbing. He knew that was how I got injured. Wellman said. Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again and they started training.
Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth. At one point, pieces of rock gave way, and Corbett dropped down quickly. Wellman locked their rope in place, stopping the fall at 20 feet. His quick action probably saved his friends life.
Your partner can save your life - you can save your partners life, Wellman said as the pair received congratulations from friends. There are real close ties.
【文章大意】在現實生活中，不管作什么事情，人人互助就能克服任何困難，甚至挽救生命。Wellman和Corbett的經歷恰好印證了這個道理。
64. Which of the following was a challenge for Corbett in climbing Half Dome?
A. To climb up to remove the spikes. B. To climb it twice
C. To do 5,000 pull-ups up the rope. D. To lock the rope in place.
【解析】選B。細節理解題。根據文章可知，C項和D項是Wellman所為，因此排除。根據第六段可知，Corbett在攀爬之中掉了下去，是Wellman及時固定住纜繩阻止住他下落，他得再次攀爬上去，對他來說這是個最大的挑戰，因此選擇B項。
65. Why did the two men never talk about climbing when they first met?
A. Corbett was poorly trained.
B. Wellman had lost interest in climbing.
C. Corbett didnt want to hurt Wellman.
D. Wellman hadnt decided whether to climb again.
【解析】選C。推理判斷題。根據句子when the two men first met, they never talked about climbing. He knew that was how I got injured. Wellman said和Wellman, whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing accident可知，他們沒有談論攀巖是因為Corbett不想傷害Wellman這個殘疾人的自尊。A、B、D項沒有提及。
66. What do we know about Wellman?
A. He climbed Half Dome by himself.
B. He was disabled in a traffic accident.
C. He stopped rock-climbing for some time.
D. He was saved by Corbett during the climb.
【解析】選C。推理判斷題。根據第五段可知，Wellman過了一段時間才決定再次攀巖，于是他們二人共同訓練，因此C項正確。A項課文中沒有提及；B項錯在in a traffic accident，應為in a rock-climbing accident；D項錯誤，應為Wellman挽救了Corbett的生命。
67. The main idea of the text is that .
A. two heads are better than one
B. friendship is precious in life
C. the disabled should never give up
D. a man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated
【解析】選B。主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，Wellman和Corbett通過在攀巖活動中互相幫助，戰勝困難，甚至挽救生命的事跡，歌頌了友誼之珍貴，文末的There are real close ties也能說明C項正確。A項意為一人不敵二人計。
