1.Alexis was hotand tired.With rage in her voice she shouted,"Pull me up!I give up,I hate this.This is stupid!"It was at that moment when Jason,the adviser on the trip,looked at me and said,"Ed,I'm going to go down and talk with her."I then shouted down to Alexis,"Hold on!You can do this.We know you can!"
Jason grasped another rope,put his climbing harness(系带)on and began to move down the cliff.Within moments Jason was beside Alexis.She had her cheek directly against the face of the rock with her feet barely resting on a small piece of the cliff that stuck outward.Jason said to Alexis,"I know that you have been on this cliff now for what seems like a long time.Your feet and fingers are cramping(痉挛)up and your forearms feel as though they are on fire.But,Alexis,you are strong,look how far up you are already.You have taken one of the more difficult paths up the cliff.Alexis,look at the path you have taken."
At that moment,Alexis moved her cheek away from the rock face and looked down.The bright white chalk she used in her hands to give her a better hold,showed the path where her tired hands had moved her upward on the cliff.Jason was right.Alexis had taken the hardest way up the cliff.Jason then looked straight into Alexis'eyes and in a calm voice he said,"You are not alone out here,there are people who care about you,who want to help you and see you succeed.We are going to do this together.Are you ready?"Slowly she nodded her head and took a deep breath.

点评 人物故事类阅读理解文章是高考英语常考材料之一.这类文章一般可分为人物传记和短篇故事两类.这两类阅读材料一般较长,即词数多,而且命题也较多,特别是推理判断题和事实细节题多.在做此类阅读理解题时往往是材料看得懂,题目不好做的感觉.因此,在阅读材料时要重点放在事情发展的过程和结果上,注意把握事件的发展进程及人物之间的关系,细节与主题的关系,用以说明人物性格特点的事实、作者的态度等,这些内容往往是推理判断题的命题点.至于事实细节题的解答,同学们切忌想当然或者凭印象,一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.
