AIf you're looking to fully experience Africa’s breathtaking scenery, and have an eye for adventure, then there's only one place to be. Here, inside Africa picks four of the best hikes from across the continent.1.KilimanjaroMake it to the top of Tanzania's 5,895-meter Kilimanjaro, and you'll be standing at Africa’s highest point. The mountain is Africa's most-visited hiking destination, attracting tens of thousands of tourists and adventures every year.You don’t have to a technical climber to climb Mount Kilimanjaro; you just need not be pretty physically fit. There are six routes to choose from difficulty, scenery and success. No special equipment2. Atlas mountainsThe High Atlas is an impressive mountainous range in central Morocco that hosts North Africa's highest peak. Mount Toubkal, at 4,165 meters. There's a variety of routes to follow during your climb but inexperienced climbers should note that the hike through the mountain’s challenging zones is quite demanding.3. Mount KenyaA long-extinct volcano. Mount Kenya is Africa's second-highest peak, at 5,199 meters.Lying just south of the equator, the mountain's deep valleys and diverse wildlife will guarantee you wonderful scenery and a fantastic hiking experience.The climb, however, to the mountain's steep ice-capped peaks is quite challenging, making it the most technical, probably, in that East African area.4. Mount MeruMount Meru may forever exist in the shadow of its neighbor, Kilimanjaro,but Tanzania ’s second-highest mountain (4,565 meters) has its own devotees.It's less known, but Mount Meru is for the true enthusiast who wants toexperience what very few people actually do.Mount Meru is often used by mountaineers to adapt themselves before trying to conquer Kilimanjaro, or by those wanting a hike with the local Massai.21. What do we know about Kilimanjaro?A. It's comparatively easy to climb.B. It's Africa's second highest mountainC. Its six routes are equally difficult.D. It lies to the east of Tanzania.22.Why do mountaineers climb Mount Meru first before they do Kilimanjaro?A. To avoid big crowds of climbers.B. To hike with the local Massai.C. To get used to the situation.D. To experience what most people do.23.Which is the lowest of the four?A. Kilimanjaro.B. Atlas mountains.C. Mount Kenya.D. Mount MeruBWhen the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life, she did what comes naturally. The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and, being a city animal, lost both her sheep and her sense of direction. Then she ran along the edge of cliff( 悬崖) and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall, who turned up in seconds. Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr. Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken. Then, one day, the phone rang and Steve Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall, asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff. She may have fed on the body of a sheep which ha d also fallen over the edge. “The dog was very thin and hungry,” Steve Tregear said, “It was a very dog. She survived because of a plentifulsupply of fresh water,” he added.It was, as Mr. Holden admitted, “a minor miracle(奇迹)”.24.The dog Jody fell down the cliff when she was _____________A. rescuing her ownerB. caught in a hurricaneC. blocked by a rockD. running after a sheep25. Who spotted Judy after the accident?A. A birdwatcherB. A student from LeedsC. Six volunteersD. The coastguard of Cornwall26. What can we infer from the text?A. People like to travel with their pets.B. Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.C. Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.D. Holden cared little where Judy was buried.27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Miracle of the Coastguard.B. Surviving a Hurricane.C. Dangers in the WildD. Coming Back from the Dead.CBeing highly successful in any field is pretty rare. It takes a combination of natural talent, luck, determination, and plenty of outside support for someone to make it big in sports, entertainment, or business. But what if competing is all that matters to you, whether you are likely to succeed or not? This was the goal of Michael Eddie the Eagle Edwards, and that he reached that goal was an amazing achievement.Born in the U.K. in 1963, Michael was an enthusiastic downhill skier whose dream was to compete for Britain in world-class competitions. He would have liked to represent his country in the 1984 Winter Olympics, but there were a large number of downhill competitors, and Edwards didn't qualify. Seeing his chance elsewhere, he switched to ski jumping. Ski jumping didn't cost nearly as much, and there was almost no competition for a place on the Britain team.But a number of hurdles (障碍)could have meant the end of Edwards' dream. He weighed more than most competitors, which put him at a disadvantage. He had no financial support for his training. Poor eyesight meant that he had to wear glassesunder his goggles (护目镜)- not a good thing when they steamed up at high altitudes. But he couldn't let any of this discourage him. He saw himself as a true lover of the sport who simply wanted the chance to compete. Winning wasn't the point. Having the opportunity to try was all he cared about. And nothing could stop him from trying.In the end, Edwards took 55th place in the 1987 World Championships. He then went on to the Calgary Olympics in 1988, where he finished last in both of his events. Many athletes would have been embarrassed by this result, but he is proud of his achievement to this day. His determination to fight against all the odds made him a global hero, and in 2016, the inspiring film Eddie the Eagle was made about his life.28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To add some background information.B. To uncover the secret of success.C. To expect an answer from readers.D. To introduce the topic.29. Why did Michael Edwards choose ski jumping?A. It took less skill.B. The equipment was cheaper.C. There was little competition.D. It was easy to win the championship.30. After the Calgary Olympics, Edwards _________A. felt he had reached his goalB. was embarrassed by his resultsC. switched to film makingD. was glad it was over31. What made Michael Edwards outstanding?A. His determination to win.B. His enthusiasm for the sport.C. His attitude towards the Olympics.D. His ability to overcome physical disabilities.DSlowly but surely, we’re moving closer and closer to 5G world. From smart-home security to self-driving cars, all the internet-connected devices in our life will be able to talk to each other at lighting-fast speeds with reduced delay. Objectively speaking, the fastest 4G download speeds in the US top out at an average of 19.42Mbps. But by comparison 5G promises gigabit (千兆) speeds.“5G is one of those heralds (使者), along with artificial intelligence, of thiscoming data age,” s aid Steve Koenig , senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. “The self-driving vehicle is a great emblem of this data age, and that is to say, it is a sign of time, because with one single task, driving, you have massive amounts of coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors are collecting a lost of information to model its environments as it moves. It’s pulling in date from other vehicles about road conditions down the lane. It could be weather information, and also connected infrastructure (基础设施) constructors. There’s lots of data behind that task, which is why we need the high speed.And virtual reality glasses and headsets haven’t yet broken the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully betting that these devices will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to assist --- or even replace --- smartphones.Ericsson stated at February’s Mobile W orld Congress how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components, the glasses could reply on hardware for processing power.But don’t get to excited. There’s still a lot of work to be down in the meantime, including various trials to make sure the radios play nicely with hardware and infrastructure construction so 5G isn’t concentrated only in big cities.32. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. A right security of 5G.B. The super speed of 5G.C. A potential dream of 5G.D. The present world of 5G.33. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “emblem” in paragraph 2?A. exhibitionB. explanationC. sponsorD. symbol34. What do some tech companies expect of virtual reality glasses?A. They will be heavier than present ones.B. They will process power on their ownC. They will serve people instead of smartphones.D. They will bring a big fortune to teach companies.35. What will the author tell us in the next paragraph?A. How to fully expand 5G coverage.B. How to effectively reduce 5G trials.C. How to nicely operate 5G hardware.D. How to widely construct 5G big cities.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
