Living an Adventurous Life
Nearly ten years ago, I was told that I had a brain tumor (瘤), and this experience changed my attitude about adventure forever. I thought that I was going to die and that all my adventures were over. I did not have a brain tumor, it turned out, but rather multiple sclerosis (多發(fā)性硬化癥), which meant that, although they were not over,the nature of my adventures could have to change.
Each morning that I wake up is a fresh event, something that I might not have
had. Each gesture that I make carries the weight of uncertainty and demands significant attention: buttoning my shirt, changing a light bulb, walking down stairs. I might not be able to do it this time. If I could not delight in them, they would likely drown me in anger and in self-pity.
I admire the grand adventures of others. I read about them with interest. With Peter Matthiessen I have hiked across the Himalayas to the Crystal Mountain. I have walked with Annie Dillard up, down, into, and across Tinker Creek in all Seasons. David Bain has gone with me along 110 miles of Philippine coast, and Ed Abbey has
rowed me down the Colorado River, I enjoy the adventures of these courageous figures, who can strike out on difficult trips - 2 miles, 250 miles, 3000 miles - ready to bear cold and tiredness - indeed not just to bear but to celebrate.
But as for me, I can no longer walk very far from the armchair in which I read. Some days I don't even make it to the backyard. And yet I'm unwilling to give up the adventurous life, the difficulty of it, even the pain, the anxiety and fear, aud the sudden brief lift of spirit that makes a hard journey more attractive.
I refine adventure, make it smaller and smaller. And now, whether I am moving on my hands and knees across the dining room to help my cat, lying wide-eyed in the dark battling another period of sadness, gathering flowers from the garden, meeting a friend for lunch, I am always having the adventures that are mine to have.
41. What happens to the author after her illness?
A. She has a fear of medical treatments.    B. She travels to places she has dreamed.
C. She can't take care of herself any longer   D. She is not drowned in anger and self-pity.
42. Why does the author admire the people mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. Because they write popular novels.    B. Because they are great adventurers.
C. Because they are famous geographers.   D. Because they struggle with hardship in life
43. The author ends the article with a feeling of______
A. sadness      B. sacrifice       C. security      D. satisfaction
44. What does "adventurous life" in the title mean to the author?
A. The struggles of great people against difficulties.
B. Her concern about giving up certain activities.
C. Her adapting to the situation with an illness.
D. The exciting traveling experience of others.

閱讀理解。
     Ed Viesturs grew up in Rockford, Illinois, where the tallest thing on the horizon was the water tower.
But on Thursday, Viesturs became the only American to climb to the top of the world's 14 highest mountains.
     His last hike was up Mount Annapurna, in Asia's snowcapped Himalayas. At 26,545 feet, its peak is the
10th highest in the world. It is the mountain that inspired him to start climbing.
     "It tends to be the trickiest, the most dangerous," said Viesturs. "There's no simple way to climb it. There
are threatening avalanches (雪崩) and ice falls that protect the mountain."
     In high school, Viesturs read French climber Maurice Herzog's tale of climbing the icy Annapurna. Herzog's
story was of frostbite (凍傷) and difficulty and near-death experiences. Viesturs was hooked right away.
     Viesturs got his start on Washington's Mount Rainier in 1977, guiding hikes in the summer. Fifteen years
ago, he set out to walk up to the world's highest peaks. Finally, he's done.
     The pioneering climber talks about mountains as if they were living creatures that should be treated with
respect. "You have to use all of your senses, all of your abilities to see if the mountain will let you climb it,"
said Viesturs. "If we have the patience and the respect, and if we're here at the right time, under the right
circumstances, they allow us to go up, and allow us to come down."
     What's next for a man who can't stop climbing? "I'm going to hug my wife and kids and kind of kick back
and enjoy the summer," says Viesturs. But for a man who's climbed the world's 14 tallest mountains, he will
probably soon set off on yet another adventure.
1. What record has Ed Viesturs set?
A. He has succeeded in climbing to the world' s 14th highest mountain.
B. He has been to the top of the world's 14 highest mountains.
C. He has become the first to climb to the height of 26,545 feet.
D. He has become the first man to climb to the top of 14 highest mountains in the world.
2. The underlined word "hooked" in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by "_____".
A. frightened
B. discouraged
C. interested
D. upset
3. The author used Viesturs' words in Paragraph 6 to support a view that _____.
A. mountain climbing is a dangerous sport
B. mountains should be regarded as living creatures
C. mountain climbing needs more skills than physical energy
D. those who like mountain climbing won't stop climbing
4. What' s the next probable plan of Viesturs?
A. Stopping climbing and staying with his family.
B. Climbing to the top of the world's 14 tallest mountains again.
C. Climbing another one of the highest mountains.
D. Writing down the experiences about his adventure.
