2、and relay their experiences to readers in the form of written language.Thus,when I was challenged to take part in a mountain climb in aid of raising money for charity-and to write about it afterwards-I was unwilling,to say the least.I was lucky enough to have a brilliant climbing coach called Keith,

3、who put me through my paces after my daily work.He gave me knowledge about everything from the importance of building muscle groups to how to avoid tiredness through nutrition.It quickly became apparent that the mechanics of climbing were more complex than I had imagined.There was the equipment and

4、techniques Id never even heard of,all of which would come in handy on the snow-capped peak Id be climbing.Aware of the challenge,Keith made a detailed action plan and I forced myself to stick to it,doing a daily workout at the gym and going on hikes with a heavy pack.I perfected my technique on the

5、climbing wall and even went to climb the mountains to get vital experience.My self-belief increased alongside my muscle power and I became confident about finishing the climb.All too soon I was on a plane to my destination.On that day,when I looked up at the mountain,I thought of abandoning it.But t

6、hen I remembered all the hard work Id done and how disappointed Keith would be if I gave up at the last minute-not to mention letting down the charity and the sense of failure Id experience myself.With a deep breath I gathered my equipment and headed out into the sunshine to meet the rest of the gro

7、up.And as I sit here now,tapping away on my laptop,Im amazed at the details in which I can recall every second of the climb:the burning muscles,the tiredness,the minor problems along the way.Could I have been better prepared?Possibly.Would I be back for another go?Thankfully not.The feeling of being

8、 excited when I stood on top of the world is a never-to-be-repeated experience but one I will enjoy forever nevertheless.1.At the beginning of the activity,the author revealed his _.A.disappointment in the coming adventure.B.expectation of writing about his experience.C.lack of enthusiasm for the ch

9、allenge hed been offered.D.curiosity about taking part in the mountain climb for charity.2.What did the author realise during his climb training?A.The knowledge about climbing was really confusing.B.The equipment was the key factor to reach the peak.C.Climbing was much more complicated than expected

11、s regretful that it wasnt as smooth as imagined.B In this day and age,there seems to be a move towards secondary school subjects.For that reason,some parents and some students feel that the compulsory study of English literature is misguided and disadvantageous to students,particularly if they are s

12、econd language learners of English.However,there are still good reasons for the study of English literature.Students of English language sometimes fail to see the point of studying English literature,especially if they have no plans to study English or translation at university.But English literatur

13、e can introduce students to a range of aspects,not only of the English language but also the culture of English-speaking countries.There are aspects of English culture that are summarised by English literature.Of course,this is quite obvious when studying the works of Shakespeare or of writers,poets

14、 and playwrights of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.It is,however,also true when studying other works of English literature.Students can learn about good stories and references to different aspects of English culture.They can also learn the context and meanings of famous quotes and phrases.S

15、tudying literature does not confine the students to the traditions ofEnglandbut includes the possibility of introducing them to traditions which inform English literature,such as the study of Ancient Greek drama,and to literature in other contexts,such as American literature.An enjoyment and appreci

16、ation of literature will give students the ability to develop this into an interest in books and reading as they move away from their studies and into the adult lives.They will have the confidence to approach and cope with new forms of books and writing,since they were exposed to a range of literatu

17、re during their school days.When studying literature,students can learn not only language aspects such as vocabulary items but also the language aspects which can be used for specific purposes.For example,if the students are familiar with the concepts of beat and rhythm of English poems,they can imp

18、rove their own writing as they are able to appreciate and apply these ideas.Finally,the study of literature can provide students with a fresh and creative angle,from which the students can approach their studies in particular and their lives in general.So the next time you are reading a newspaper ar

24、 brought him home,Jack stayed mostly in my room.After about a day he had noissues running around and climbing on everything.At times he gets lost in the house,hell stop.But we just call his name and talk to him and it isnt long before he finds his way back to us.A few weeks after getting Jack,we got

25、 a new cat named Bear.Jack and Bear have become best friends.It doesnt matter that he cant see.He always knows when Bear is around.Hell run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug.They run after each other around and wrestle(摔跤).Theyll lie down in the gr

26、ass together when tired.Jack is truly an inspiration.Ive owned lots of kittens in my life,but Jack is the happiest and most playful.He doesnt feel sorry for himself.He doesnt need pity.I think Jean,owner of Gumbo,another eyeless cat,said it best when she told me that cats dont have disabilities;they

32、y sugary matter from the sugar in the drink.As coke is fullof sugar,you should clean the sticky matter off the window glasses,or it will be not a cleaner but a dirt.For those of you who live in areas where skunk(臭鼬)smells can be an issue from time to time,one can of coke added to water with detergen
