请阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项.
Last year, I heard about the Himalayas and the melting of the ice because of climate change. I decided to do a __36__ swim underneath Mt. Everest, the highest mountain on this earth.
When we got up to the small lake underneath the summit of Mt. Everest, I prepared myself in __37__ ways, for this swim would be so difficult. I put on my iPod, listened to some music, got myself as __38__ as possible and then I __39__ myself into that water. I swam as __40__ as I could for the first hundred meters. Afterwards I __41__ the huge problem on my hands. My fingers were __42__ the size of sausages because—you know, we're made partially of water—when water freezes it __43__. I then could barely breathe, began to __44__ and even threw up in the water. It all happened so quickly. I don't know why, but I went __45__. Luckily, the water was quite shallow, and I was able to push myself __46__ the bottom of the lake. I've heard it said that drowning is the most __47__ death you can have. I have never, ever heard such nonsense.
In our camp, I __48__ about what had gone wrong there on Mt. Everest with my crew. My team just gave it to me __49__. “__50__ if you want to __51__ it. Every single thing you've learned in the past 23 years of swimming, you must __52__. And also the every single thing you learned when you were __53__ in the British army, about speed and aggression. This is the time to swim with real __54__.”
I can't tell how good and __55__ I felt when I swam to the other side two days later. But I learned a very, very important lesson there on Mt. Everest: just because something worked in the past so well, it doesn't mean it's going to work in the future.

答案：36-40 BDABB 41-45 ABCAA 46-50 CDDBB 51-55 CDBAD
详细解析 ：
第36题我决定在Mt. Everest下来一场创世纪的游泳.symbolic“有象征意义的”引申为“前无古人，后无来者的”，与后文作者一开始轻视这次游泳，想要创下记录的雄心呼应.
第37题无视后面for this swim would be so difficult，在文章最后“just because something worked in the past so well, it doesn’t mean it’sgoing to work in the future”暗示了作者当初在准备时是in usual ways，simple“简单的”，“常见的”不符合题意，usual“平常的”符合.
第38题不要根据常识啊，要根据后文提示，倒数第二段“about speed and aggression”可知这里选aggressive“过分自信的，有进取心的”.
第39题throw oneself into water“积极投身于水中”，表示急切迫切的心情，符合上文提到的aggressive.
第40题也是根据aggressive可以判断作者游地很快很猛，slowly和carefully排除.
第41题后来我发现了我手的问题，用realize.
第42题be exactly the size ofsausages“完全和香肠一样肿”.
第43题expand“〔在大小、尺寸方面〕扩大，膨胀”，it代指water，水遇到结冰是膨胀的，用expand
第44题根据“throw up in the water”提示，因作者内部的水被冻住，导致他呼吸不便，所以有窒息感，用choke“窒息，不能呼吸”，
第45题根据“the bottom of the lake”提示，作者深入水下，即将溺亡，用underwater.
第46题push myself off the bottom ofthe lake“使我脱离水下”.
第47题根据后文“I have never ever heard such nonsense”提示，又与前面作者choke的窘境对比，用peaceful.
第48题talk about“与伙伴谈论此事”.
第49题根据后文“Lewis, you need to…”提示，可知是give it straight to me“直截了当地和我说”.
第50题后面几道题就都串联在一起了，“转变你的思想态度”.
第51题固定搭配，make it“成功达成”.
第52题根据前文“you’ ve learned in the past 23 years of swimming”和后文“just because something worked in the past so well, it doesn’t mean it’sgoing to work in the future”提示，作者必须忘记过去学习的技巧，达成shift“转变”.
第53题固定搭配serve in the army“在军队服役”.
第54题根据前文shift“思想转变”可知从前作者凭借着学到的技巧不重视游泳，现在要对珠穆朗玛峰底下游泳饱含“敬意”respect.
第55题根据“with real respect”提示作者现在对同事们的建议还有他的这段经历感到thankful，带有感恩意义.
第三部分　阅读理解〔共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分〕
请阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项.
A
Lisbon to Sintra Overview
Sintra is 25km to the west of Lisbon. We strongly discourage driving to Sintra, as the narrow hill roads are not designed for the heavy tourist traffic and there is virtually no car parking once there. There are bus services to Sintra, but the journey times are longer than by train and the locations of the bus stations are not as convenient as the train stations.
The trains to Sintraboth equally useful for tourists. These services are：
1〕 Rossio Station to Sintra
2〕 Oriente station to Sintra, via Areeiro, Entrecampos, and Sete Rios stations
The Rossio service is the one typically used by most visitors, as it departs from the historic centre of Lisbon. The train departing from Oriente station is generally used by those visitors travelling onward to Sintra, as this route is closer to the airport, the main bus stations and train station.
As the Lisbon to Sintra railway is an urban route, tickets and seats cannot be pre­booked, but there is no real need as there is usually plenty of free seats. Due to the popularity of Sintra there can be long queues at Rossio station for tickets, our advice is always start a trip to Sintra as early in the day as possible.
All of Lisbon's train stations are considered as being in the same fare zone, so no matter the departing station the fare to Sintra will always be the same. A single from Lisbon to Sintra passes through four fare zones and costs 2.15/1.10 〔adult/child〕. There are no reductions for a return ticket, and the return fare will be the price of two singles.
　〕56. To visit Sintra, travelers are advised to ________．
A. go there by train for safety reasons caused by narrow hill roads
B. take a bus there as there is a lack of car parking for self­drivers
C. book tickets beforehand in order to secure a seat on the train
D. set out early if taking Rossio route for fear of long ticket time
　they will ________．
A. take the Oriente route and pay 10.8 for the fare
B. take the Rossio route and pay 10.8 for the fare
C. take the Oriente route and pay 16.2 for the fare
D. take the Rossio route and pay 16.2 for the fare
答案：DA
第56题D 第四段最后一句‘our advice is always start a trip as early in the day as possible’其中 start a trip 同义替换 set out.
第57题A 最后一段，大人每人2.15英镑，孩子每人1.10英镑.两大两小往返价格〔2.15*2+1.1〕*2=10.8 英镑.
B
We've all heard it before: to be successful, get out of bed early. After all, Apple CEO Tim Cook gets up at 3：45 am, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne at 3：30 am and Richard Branson at 5：45 am—and, as we know, “the early bird catches the worm.”
But just because some successful people wake up early, does that mean it's a trait most of them share? And if the idea of having exercised, planned your day, eaten breakfast, visualised and done one task before 8 am makes you want to roll over and hit snooze till next Saturday, are you really doomed to a less successful life?
For about half of us, this isn't really an issue. It's estimated that some 50% of the population isn't really morning or evening­ori
