47、.”中，“and”表示并列关系，即划线单词“carve”应是与之前“want to”，之后“dream of”表达含义相同，即“想要；梦想要做某事”含义，与选项B“have a strong desire for(对有强烈的愿望)”表达含义相同。故选B项。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第五段内容“And the fact that many of the climbers were inexperienced is one of the major factors contributing to the tragedy, according to USA Today.”可知，据今日美国报道

48、，许多登山者缺乏经验是造成这场灾难的主要原因之一。故选A项。【14题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第九段内容“The journey is the most important thing on any mountain.( 旅途是任何山上最重要的事情。)”可知，对于Levince来说，登峰的旅程都是最重要的事情。故选C项。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据文章末尾段内容“ But the first step of conquering anything is probably to learn to conquer our own greed and ignorance.(但是，征服任何事物的第一步可能就是学会征服我们自己的贪婪和无知。)”可知，在作者看来征服珠穆朗玛峰是人类“天性”的征服欲的体现,作者用贪婪和无知描述了他们在攀登时的态度。由此可推知，作者的态度应是批判的。故选B项。广东省揭阳市第三中学2020-2021学年高一英语上学期期中试题第一节 (共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。ACity： Hangzhou
