Narrow Escape

We had left the hut too late that morning.When we stepped outside,the sky beyond the mountains to our east was already livid with colour.It meant the day would be a hot one,and the warmth would loosen rocks that were gripped by ice.

As soon as we stepped out on to the face,it became obvious this was going to be an awkward route.The main problem was talus,the debris that collects on mountainsides.Talus is despised by mountaineers for two reasons.First,because it can easily be pushed off on to you by people climbing above.And second,because it makes every step you take insecure.

For about 30 minutes we moved steadily up the face.The rock was in poor condition,shattered horizontally and mazed with cracks.When I tried to haul myself up on a block of it,it would pull out towards me,like a drawer opening.My hands became progressively wetter and colder.Then came a shout."Cailloux! Cailloux!"I heard yelled from above,in a female voice.The words echoed down towards us.I looked up to see where they had come from.

There were just two rocks at first,leaping and bounding down the face towards us,once cannoning off each other in mid-air.And then the air above suddenly seemed alive with falling rocks,humming through the air and filling it with noise.Crack,went each one as it leapt off the rock face,then hum-hum-hum as it moved through the air,then crack again.The pause between the cracks lengthened each time,as the rocks gained momentum and jumped further and further.I continued to gaze up at the rocks as they fell and skipped towards me.A boy who had been a few years above me at school had taught me never to look up during a rock fall."Why? Because a rock in your face is far less pleasant than a rock on your helmet,"he told us."Face in,always face in."

I heard Toby,my partner on the mountain that day,shouting at me.I looked across.He was safe beneath an overhanging canopy of rock.I could not understand him.Then I felt a thump,and was tugged backwards and round,as though somebody had clamped a heavy hand on my shoulder and turned me to face them.A rock had hit the lid of my rucksack.

I looked up again.A rock was heading down straight towards me.Instinctively,I leant backwards and arched my back out from the rock to try to protect my chest.What about my fingers,though,I thought: they'll be crushed flat if it hits them,and I'll never get down.Then I heard a crack directly in front of me,and a tug at my trousers,and a yell from Toby."Are you all right? That went straight through you."The rock had pitched in front of me,and passed through the hoop of my body,between my legs,missing me but snatching at my clothing as it went.

Toby and I had spent the evening talking through the events of the morning: what if the big final stone hadn't leapt sideways,what if I'd been knocked off,would you have held me,would I have pulled you off? A more experienced mountaineer would probably have thought nothing of it.I knew I would not forget it.

1.Why was it "too late” by the time they left the hut in the morning?

A.It would be uncomfortable climbing in hot weather.

B.The livid colour of the sky would hurt their eyes.

C.Rocks loosened by melting ice could be dangerous.

D.They wouldn't be able to walk on the melting ice.

正確答案：C

答案解析：本題考查對文章第一自然段的理解，對照原文知道太熱的天氣會導(dǎo)致冰雪融化巖石松動，那么對于登山者來說就危險了，所以說太晚了，選C。

2.The first reason given to explain why mountaineers hate talus is_______.

A.that climbers above you might cause it to fall on you

B.that it allows people climbing above you to push off

C.that it makes people climbing above you feel insecure

D.that it can cause other people to push you off the mountain

正確答案：A

答案解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。對照原文第二自然段First,because it can easily be pushed off on to you by people climbing above.首先，是因?yàn)樗�很容易被在你上面爬山的人推下去。那么就有可能砸到你，所以選A。

3.What is likely to be the meaning of "Cailloux"?

A.Rocks are flying through the air.

B.Rocks are falling.

C.There are loose rocks on the ground ahead.

D.There are rocks everywhere.

正確答案：B

答案解析：本題考查對文章的理解。Cailloux出現(xiàn)在第三自然段，這一段主要講巖石松動了，再對照原文第四自然段the air above suddenly seemed alive with falling rocks講空氣中掉落的巖石，很容易知道答案是B。

4.What is sarcastic in the words of the boy in paragraph four?

A.He didn't keep his ''face in".

B.Not every climber wears a helmet.

C.It is very difficult not to look up during a rockfall.

D.Being hit by a rock isn't "pleasant"at all.

正確答案：D

答案解析：本題針對第四自然段的對話提問，考查理解能力，有一定難度。對照原文"Why? Because a rock in your face is far less pleasant than a rock on your helmet,"因?yàn)槭�頭砸在你臉上遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不比砸在你頭盔上愉快。也就是石頭砸在臉上很讓人不愉快。答案是D。helmet是頭盔的意思。

5.In what sense was Toby "safe"?

A.The overhanging rock would protect him from falling rocks.

B.He felt a hand on his shoulder.

C.His rucksack was protected.

D.He had hidden under a canopy.

正確答案：A

答案解析：針對第五自然段提問，對照原文He was safe beneath an overhanging canopy（遮篷）of rock.他躲在一個懸空的巖石遮篷下。這樣就能躲開掉落的巖石，答案是A，protect… from doing保護(hù)…免受…。
