第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，38 分)
第一节(共14 小题;每小题 2分，共 28 分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在
答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Paragliding is a kind of flying, but instead of the wing being made of metal, wood or plastic,
it is made of nylon or polyester. The wing is attached to a harness by lines where a pilot sits,
similar to a parachute.
Is it safe?
Paragliding, is as safe as sailing and deep-sea diving. The big advantage is that it’s probably
the slowest form of aviation, so if you do crash, you'll hit the ground quite gently! It’s a very
relaxing sport as you're mostly sitting down. Yet, you’ll probably experience pain in some muscles
you didn’t know you had while learning, but many of those will be due to the walk up the training
hill to launch.
Where do I learn?
There are lots of schools, mainly based inland by appropriate hills or mountains, and there
are also schools on the coast near spectacular cliffs. These are very attractive, though the prospect
of landing in the sea seems to discourage beginners! It takes seven days to get your basic license;
then you’re free to fly independently at sites across the country.
What do I need?
Pilots normally wear warm clothes in case they get very high up, and a helmet in case they
stumble on landing. In terms of gear, schools supply basic training, canopies, harnesses, etc.
However, you'll probably want to buy your own more sophisticated equipment, which you’ll be
able to choose much better once you’ve tried some out on your course.
Who can do it?
There’s no upper age limit provided your instructor judges you capable, but the youngest is
14. Anybody with good eyesight and good balance is a potential paraglider pilot.
Flying a paraglider is a great sport. We hope to see you in the air with us this season!
21. Which would be the best heading for Paragraph 1?
A. What is paragliding? B. Who invented paragliding?
C. How is paragliding special? D. Why is paragliding popular?
22. According to the passage, paragliding is____________ .
A. exciting but tiring B. safe and relaxing
C. attractive but expensive D. fast and challenging
23. What can we know from the passage?
A. Fit people of any age can take up paragliding.
B. Most paragliding schools are situated by the sea.
C. Pilots need to buy basic equipment on their training course.
D. Learners can fly on their own after at least a week’s training.
B
Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur(创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business
AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the
invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, instead of destroying them.
