【閱讀理解 · 題目】

       Sometimes a race is not enough. Sometimes a runner just wants to go further. That's what happened to Dennis Martin and Brooke Curran.

　　Martin, 68, a retired detective from New York City, took up running after his first wife died.Curran,46, a philanthropist(慈善家)from Alexandria, started running to get out of the house and collect her thoughts. Both she and Martin got good at running but felt the desire to do more.“The more I trained, the better I got,”Curran said,“but I would cross the finish line with no sense of accomplishment.”

　　Eventually, they worked up to running marathons(馬拉松)(and longer races) in other countries, on other continents. Now both have achieved a notable—and increasingly less rate-milestone: running the 26.2-mile race on all seven continents.

　　They are part of a phenomenon that has grown out of the running culture in the past two decades,at the intersection of athleticism and leisure: “runcations”, which combine distance running with travel to exotic places. These trips,as expensive as they are physically challenging, are a growing and competitive market in the travel industry.

　　“In the beginning, running was enough,” said Steen Albrechtsen, a press manager. “The classic marathon was the ultimate goal, then came the super marathons, like London and New York.But when 90,000 people a year can take that challenge, it is no longer exciting and adventurous.Hence, the search for new adventures began.”

　　“No one could ever have imagined that running would become the lifestyle activity that it is today,” said Thom Gilligan, founder and president of Boston-based Marathon Tours and Travel.Gilligan, who has been in business since 1979, is partly responsible for the seven-continent phenomenon.

　　It started with a casual talk to an interviewer about his company offering trips to every continent except Antarctica. And then in 1995, Marathon Tours hosted its first Antarctica Marathon on King George Island, off the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula: 160 runners got to the starting line of a dirt-and ice-trail route via a Russian icebreaker through the Drake Passage.

1. At the beginning, Martin took up running just to (      ).

A.meet requirements of his job

B.win a running race

C.join in a philanthropic activity

D.get away from his sadness

2. Martin and Curran are mentioned as good examples of (      ).

A.winners in the 26.2-mile race on all seven continents

D.old people who live an active life after retirement

3. A new trend in the travel industry is the development of (      ).

A.challenging runcations

B.professional races

C.Antarctica travel market

D.expensive tours

4. The classic marathon no longer satisfies some people because (      ).

A.it does not provide enough challenge

B.it may be tough and dangerous

C.it involves too fierce a competition

D.it has attracted too many people

5. The first Antarctica Marathon on King George Island indicates that (      ).

A.international cooperation is a must to such an event

B.runcations are expensive and physically challenging

C.Marathon Tours is a leader of the travel industry

D.adventurous running has become increasingly popular

【閱讀理解 · 答案】

1. 【答案】D

【解析】推理題。題干問的是最開始馬丁跑步只是為了（      ）。根據(jù)文章第二段第一句可知，68歲的馬丁是紐約市的一名退休偵探，他在第一任妻子去世后開始跑步。由此可推測(cè)，馬丁跑步是為了擺脫妻子去世的悲傷。故選D(擺脫他的悲傷)。A項(xiàng)(滿足工作需要)、B項(xiàng)(贏一場(chǎng)賽跑)和C項(xiàng)(加入一場(chǎng)慈善活動(dòng))均與文章內(nèi)容不符，故排除。

2. 【答案】B

【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干問的是文中提到的馬丁和柯倫是（      ）的很好的例子。文章開頭提到有些跑步者不滿足于一場(chǎng)比賽，而是想跑得更遠(yuǎn)，接著便提到馬丁和柯倫就是這樣的。第二段提到他們?cè)诒荣愔械竭_(dá)終點(diǎn)時(shí)也沒有成就感，表明他們熱衷于長(zhǎng)跑，而不是比賽的結(jié)果。文章第六段第一句總結(jié)到，跑步如今已成為人們的一種生活方式，因此馬丁和柯倫就是把跑步作為生活方式的人。故選B(把長(zhǎng)跑作為生活方式的人)。A項(xiàng)(在所有七大洲的42.2千米賽跑中獲勝的人)與文意不符，文中只是提到他們參加七大洲的42.2千米賽跑，并未提及是否獲勝，故排除。C項(xiàng)(對(duì)自己的表現(xiàn)滿意的跑步運(yùn)動(dòng)員)文中未提及，故排除。D項(xiàng)(退休后生活積極的老年人)雖然文中有提到，但并不是作者強(qiáng)調(diào)的主要內(nèi)容，故排除。

3. 【答案】A

【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干問的是旅游業(yè)的新趨勢(shì)是（      ）的發(fā)展。根據(jù)文章第四段可知，旅游業(yè)出現(xiàn)了一種既昂貴又對(duì)身體素質(zhì)要求很高的旅行方式，在旅游業(yè)中是一個(gè)逐漸擴(kuò)大和競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈的市場(chǎng)，這種旅行方式就是“跑步度假”。故選A(具有挑戰(zhàn)性的跑步度假)。B項(xiàng)(職業(yè)比賽)、C項(xiàng)(南極洲旅游市場(chǎng))和D項(xiàng)(昂貴的旅行)均與文章內(nèi)容不符，故排除。

4. 【答案】A

【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干問的是一些人不再滿足于經(jīng)典馬拉松是因?yàn)?span style="text-wrap: wrap;">（      ）。根據(jù)文章第五段可知，一開始跑步就足夠了，經(jīng)典馬拉松是人們的最終目標(biāo)，然后又出現(xiàn)了超級(jí)馬拉松，但當(dāng)每年有9萬人能夠挑戰(zhàn)這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)時(shí)，超級(jí)馬拉松就不再令人興奮了，也不再具有挑戰(zhàn)性，所以人們開始尋找新的冒險(xiǎn)。因此人們不再滿足于馬拉松的原因是它不再具有挑戰(zhàn)性了。故選A(它不再有足夠的挑戰(zhàn)性)。B項(xiàng)(它可能很艱難和危險(xiǎn))和C項(xiàng)(這個(gè)比賽競(jìng)爭(zhēng)太激烈了)文中均未提及，故排除。D項(xiàng)(它吸引了太多的人)是對(duì)文章內(nèi)容的曲解，文中提到每年有9萬人挑戰(zhàn)這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)，是為了強(qiáng)調(diào)它不再具有挑戰(zhàn)性，故排除。

5. 【答案】D

【解析】推理題。題干問的是喬治王島的第一次南極洲馬拉松賽表明（      ）。文章通篇都在講如今跑步文化盛行，人們已經(jīng)不滿足于經(jīng)典馬拉松和超級(jí)馬拉松，正在不斷探索新的具有挑戰(zhàn)性的跑步形式，最后一段提到，人們突破重重困難，在南極洲進(jìn)行馬拉松比賽，旨在強(qiáng)調(diào)有冒險(xiǎn)性的跑步活動(dòng)越來越盛行，故選D(冒險(xiǎn)的跑步越來越受歡迎)。A項(xiàng)(這種活動(dòng)必須有國際間的合作)文中未提及，故排除。B項(xiàng)(跑步度假很昂貴且對(duì)身體素質(zhì)要求高)文中雖有提及，但是并不是通過南極洲馬拉松體現(xiàn)出來的，故排除。C項(xiàng)(馬拉松旅游公司是旅游業(yè)的領(lǐng)頭羊)文中并沒有體現(xiàn)，故排除。

閱讀理解部分，單詞是基礎(chǔ)，長(zhǎng)難句拆分是必要技能，解題技巧是提高做題速度和正確率的關(guān)鍵。做完題目后，建議總結(jié)錯(cuò)因，分析是哪個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)出現(xiàn)的問題，針對(duì)性補(bǔ)弱喲。隨時(shí)聯(lián)系老師，一起探討更多備考技巧！
