第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

( A )

In 1997, a group of twenty British women made history. Working in five teams with four women

in each team, they walked to the North Pole. Apart from one experienced female guide, the other women

were all ordinary people who had never done anything like this in their lives before. They managed to

survive in an environment which had defeated several very experienced men during the same time period.

The women set off as soon as they were ready. Once on the ice, each woman had to ski along while

dragging a sledge weighing over 50 kilos. The temperature was always below the freezing point and

sometimes strong winds made walking while pulling so much weight almost impossible. It was also very

difficult for them to put up their tents when they stopped each night.

In such conditions, the women were making good progress if they covered fourteen or fifteen kilometers

a day. But there was another problem. Part of the journey was across a frozen sea with moving water

underneath the ice and at some points the team would drift back more than five kilometers during the

night. That meant that after walking in these very severe conditions for ten hours on one day, they had to

spend part of the next day covering the same ground again. Furthermore, each day it took three hours

from waking up to setting off and another three hours every evening to set up the camp and prepare the

evening meal.

So, how did they manage to succeed? They realized that they were part of a team. If any one

of them didn’t pull her sledge or get her job done, she would endanger the success of the whole expedition.

Any form of selfishness could result in the efforts of everyone else being completely wasted, so personal

Feelings had to be put on one side. At the end of their journey, the women agreed that it was mental effort far

more than physical fitness that got them to the North Pole.

What was so extraordinary about the expedition?

A. There was no one to lead it. B. The women did not have any men with them.

C. It was a new experience for most of the women. D. The women had not met one another before.

47. It was difficult for the
