阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
A poor traveller stopped under the tree to eat the boiled rice and vegetables which he had
brought with him. A few metres away, there was a small shop by the side of the road where a
woman was frying (油炸) fish and selling it to travellers. The woman watched the poor traveller
carefully, and when he finished his food and began to go, she shouted rudely, “You haven’t paid
me for the fried fish!”
“But I have not had any fried fish!” he said.
“But everyone can see that you enjoyed the smell of my fried fish with your rice and
vegetables,” said the woman, “If you had not smelled the fish, your meal would not have been so pleasant!”
Soon a crowd collected, and although they supported the poor traveller, they had to admit that wind was blowing from the shop to the place where he had eaten, and that it had carried the smell of the fried fish to him.
Finally, the woman took the poor traveller to a judge, who said: “The woman says that the
traveller ate his meal with the smell of her fried fish. The traveller agrees that the wind was blowing from the woman’s shop to the place where he ate his rice and vegetables and that it carried the smell of her fried fish to his nose while he was eating, so he must pay for it. What does your fried fish cost?” he asked the woman.
“Twenty-five cents a plate,”she answered, delighted.
“Then go outside together,” said the judge. “There the traveller must hold up a twenty five cent piece so that its shadow (影子)falls on the woman’s hand. The price of the smell of a plate of fried fish is the shadow of twenty-five cents.”

B．
Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure--those who have climbed
the highest mountains, travelled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a
risky (冒险的) activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.
I would consider bungee jumping (蹦极跳) to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic (有弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jump-
ing include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs (悬崖)
Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is beca- use life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly in danger. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured (治
愈), and life was a continuous battle for survial (生存).
Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in com- paratively safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill.The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping.
6. A best title for the text is ________.
A. Dangerous Sports: What and Why B. The Boredom of Modern Life
C. Bungee Jumping: Is It Really Dangerous? D. The Need for Excitement
7. More and more people today ___
A. are trying activities such as bungee jumping
B. are climbing the highest mountains
C. are coming close to death in sports
D. are looking for adventures such as travelling into unknown places
8. In bungee jumping, you ________.
A. jump as high as you can
B. slide down a rope to the ground
C. attach (系) yourself to a rope and fall to the ground
D. fall towards the ground without a rope
9. People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ________.
A. they have a lot of free time
B. they can go to hospital if they are injured
C. their life is short of excitement
D. they no longer need to hunt for food
10. The writer of the text has ________ attitude (态度) towards dangerous sports.
A. positive (肯定的) B. negative (否定的)

C. neutral (中立的) D. nervous (紧张的)
