Two summers ago, Spencer Seabrooke stepped off the edge of a cliff and out into the air. He was held up by a narrow band of fabric, three centimetres wide. The slackline (扁带) went over a deep channel on the top of Stawamus Chief Mountain in Squamish, Canada. The plan was to walk across without safety equipment. The ground was 290 metres below Seabrook’s feet. A fall meant death. The walking distance of 64 metres would mark a world record in free solo slacklining.

“You’re standing on nothing,” Seabrooke said at the time. “Everything inside your body is telling you this is wrong.” Several steps into the crossing, Seabrooke looked down. He lowered his body to steady himself and reached with his hands to hold the slackline. He suddenly turned over but hung on. He righted himself, let out a few screams, and stood again. He had walked the same slackline-with assistance-many times before. Finally, he crossed in four minutes and made it.

Slacklining became known in the early 1980s, around the rock climbing scene at Yosemite National Park in California. Scott Balcom, in 1985, was the first to walk on a 17-metre highline on Lost Arrow Spire, the valley bottom some 880 metres below. Charles “Chongo” Tucker, who has been living in Yosemite for a long time, was there in slacklining’s earliest days. Later, in 1994, he was one of the next people to walk the Lost Arrow Spire highline. “As scared as I was, it was as cool as anything I’ve ever done in my life,” said Tucker.

Seabrooke grew up in Peterborough, Canada, in love with the outdoors. He saw a documentary in 2012 that was about Andy Lewis, a slackliner and free solo pioneer who performed at the Super Bowl. Seabrooke was attracted and devoted himself to the sport. Three years later, he walked his record free solo highline on the Stawamus Chief.

The attention Seabrooke won led to work, everything from commercials to paid appearances at slackline festivals from Poland to China. “When you step out into the air, there’s something so clean about it,” said Seabrooke. “Height makes it real.”

1.What do we know about Seabrooke’s slacklining experience two years ago?

A.It was record-breaking.

B.It was done in Yosemite.

C.It involved materials for security.

D.It presented no challenge to him.

2.What did Seabrooke’s words in Paragraph 2 imply?

A.He was very confident.

B.He made a wrong decision.

C.Slacklining was a dangerous sport.

D.Slacklining was done without any support.

3.What was Tucker’s attitude to slacklining?

A.Negative. B.Ambiguous.

C.Frustrated. D.Favorable.

4.What encouraged Seabrooke to start slacklining?

A.The Super Bowl.

B.A slackline festival.

C.Its commercial promise.

D.A slackliner’s performance.

高三英语完形填空困难题查看答案及解析

It was blazing hot, just like most July days. I stepped into a tiny ice-cream shop to cool off with a

chocolate ice-cream. It was an old woman bent over a table near the door. Her back was so badly twisted that her face nearly touched the tabletop. I sat down facing her a couple of tables away.

“Poor woman,” I thought, “What does she get out of life? Why God let people live so long past their prime?”

As I thought, another aged lady entered the shop and sat down with her. Soon the two of them were talking about childhood days. They talked of how little the shop had changed in 70 years... In minutes, the two of them were trembling with laughter.

I looked again at the first woman, then in the mirror on a nearby wall, catching a picture of myself. I was wearing a dirty shirt. She was well dressed in white, her hands sparking with gold rings. I was sad. She was laughing, smiling. I was putting the pieces of my life together. She had millions of wonderful memories to recall. I sat alone. She was sharing the day with a good friend. I was secretly worried about getting old. She was old, but it wasn’t hurting her.

As I left the shop, I thought of my foolish question about God letting people live past their prime. Why, that woman was more alive, more sensitive to life than I was. Age has not bent her spirit.

1.From the passage we know that the ice-shop _________.

A. changed a lot in the past              B. had only a couple of tables

C. started its business 70 years ago.               D. had only women shoppers.

2.What is the meaning of the underlined word “prime” in this passage?

A. miserable life

B. wonderful experience

C. long career

D. time of great strength, beauty, vigor(活力)

3. The writer implies all of the following except that _________.

A. the old lady had lived a full and satisfying life

B. the writer had more problems than the old lady

C. the old lady was very lonely and sad

D. the old lady had learned to enjoy the simple things in life

4. Which of the following is the conclusion the writer made about the old lady?

A. She was more alive and sensitive to life than the writer.

B. She considered the young man pitiable.

C. She was to be pitied for her old age.

D. People should not be allowed to live when they are too old.

5.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

C. To show the difference between the old and the young.

D. To make the reader have a pity on the old people.
