C

On May 8, last Thursday morning, the Olympic flame was lit on the top of Mount Qomolangma! It was a historic moment for China exactly three months ahead of the Beijing Games.

Tibetan female climber Cering Wangmo reached the summit with a special extreme-altitude Olympic torch. This event is what China has promised to the world as the high point of the torch relay, the longest and most challenging of all time.

Five torchbearers(火炬手) finished the highest relay ever—three of the climbers are Tibetan athletes.

Team members said “Beijing welcomes you!” in Chinese, English and Tibetan, as they stood at the summit celebrating, with the event broadcast on national television.

“I finally fulfilled the last dream of my husband,” said Gyigyi with tears in her eyes. She was the first torchbearer. Her husband lost his life in an attempt to climb all 14 mountains in China more than 8,000 meters three years ago.

“We are on top of the world! One world, one dream,” shouted Nima Cering, at the top of his voice. He said that although he had climbed the peak（峰頂）several times, this was the most significant ascent(登高). “As a Tibetan and a Chinese I pray for the success of Beijing 2008,” he added.

The special torch is different from the one currently touring the Chinese mainland, after an around-the-world relay. Officials organizing the trek up the peak had earlier set an April 26 target to begin the ascent, but high winds and heavy snow had delayed the mission.

The Xinhua News Agency said that the Qomolangma leg of the torch relay represents the Olympic motto, “higher, faster and stronger,” in practice and will promote unity among all 56 ethnic groups in China.

It was a historic moment because ______.

   A. some Tibetan torchbearers took part in it

   B. it was lit three months before the Olympic Games were held 

C. it was the first time that the Olympic torch had been lit on the top of Mount Qomolangma

D. it was the longest attempt in history

Which is RIGHT according to the whole passage?

A. All the five torchbearers are men.

B. Only the five torchbearers reached the summit. 

C. Team members said “Beijing welcomes you!” in their native language.

D. At least two of the five torchbearers are females.

What does the word “l(fā)eg” underlined in the last paragraph refer to?

A. One part of a journey or race.

B. One of the long parts that connect the feet to the rest of the body.

C. The leg of an animal, especially the top part, cooked and eaten.

D. The part of a pair of trousers that covers the leg.

What would be the best title for the text?

A. One world, one dream

B. Torch relay reaches its highest point

C. Qomolangma, the highest summit in the world

D. A special torch 

Where can you read about this passage?

A. In the English textbook.        

B. In the newspaper.

C. In the science report.             

D. On the street wall.

KATHMANDU, Nepal (CNN) - Nepal has given its security personnel permission to shoot pro-Tibet demonstrators during China's Olympic flame climb to Mount Everest's summit early next month.

"About 25 soldiers and policemen have established camps on the mountain and they have been ordered to use force if necessary to stop any anti-Chinese activities," Mod Raj Dotel, spokesman for the home ministry, said Sunday. "This could mean shooting if necessary."

Security personnel will also check mountain climbers for non-essential expedition materials, Dotel added.

"If anyone is found with anti-Chinese material their permit will be canceled and returned from the mountain," he said.

Chinese climbers plan to take the Olympic flame to the top of the world's highest peak, at 8,848 meters (29,028 feet) as part of the global relay leading up to the August 8 opening of the Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Spring is the most popular season for climbing Mount Everest, which straddles(跨越) the border between Nepal and Tibet, an autonomous region of China.

The Nepali government has given permits to dozens of climbers from 30 expeditions this season.

But between May 1 and May 10, climbers are barred from going above 6,400 meters until the torch run is completed. China plans to take the Olympic flame to the summit sometime then.

Bad weather conditions allow only about two opportunities in May for a push to the summit.

The Chinese have not allowed any expedition to climb the mountain from the north side, according the Kathmandu representative of the Tibet China Mountaineering Association.

Almost every day in the past month, Nepalese police have arrested pro-Tibet protesters from in front of the Chinese Embassy and the United Nations offices. The demonstrators are released later in the evening.  

Supporters of Tibet punish the government's attitude toward the autonomous region, and many believe China should not have been awarded the honor of hosting the Olympic Games.

Earlier torch relay stops in London, England; Paris, France; and San Francisco, California attracted tens of thousands of demonstrators. They led to attacks on the torch and relay participants, and prompted police to make dozens of arrests.

Subsequent stops in Argentina, Tanzania and Oman were trouble-free.

In Pakistan, authorities closed the relay to the public. And India shortened the relay and kept thousands of anti-Chinese protesters at bay by sealing off roads and shuttering buildings along the route.

The relay went smoothly in Bangkok, Thailand, on Saturday, amid heavy security and scattered protests along the route.

The flame arrived in Malaysia on Sunday. About 1,000 police officers will be on hand to watch for protesters during a relay in the capital city Kuala Lampur Monday.

61．When will China's Olympic flame probably reach Mount Everest's summit?

A．April 28     B．May 12        C．June 10        D．May 7

62．The underlined word “barred” means_____________.

A．permitted      B．stopped        C．encouraged     D．introduced 

63．How many times Climbers can reach the top of the mountain at most in May?

A．once             B．twice   

C．three times            D．a(chǎn)s many times as they can

64．Where did the torch relay meet no trouble?

A．India          B．Nepal     C．Tanzania         D．France

65．What is the attitude of the Nepali government towards towards China's Olympic flame climb to Mount Everest's summit?

       A．negative         B．positive        C．a(chǎn)mbiguous           D．Indifferent
