Helen Thayer，one of the greatest explorers of the 20th century，loves challenges.She says，“I like to see what’s on the other side of the hill.” She has gone almost everywhere to do that.
In 1988，at the age of 50，she became the first woman to travel alone to the North Pole.She pulled her own sled(雪橇) piled with 160 pounds of supplies，and during her trip no one brought her fresh supplies.Accompanied(陪伴) only by her dog Charlie，she survived cold weather and meetings with polar bears.In fact，Charlie saved her life when one of them attacked her.Near the end of her trip，a forceful wind blew away the majority of her supplies.The last week of the trip，she survived on a handful of nuts and a little water each day.
Helen goes to challenging places not only for adventure，but also for education.Before her Arctic journey，she started a website called Adventure Classroom.On the site，she shares her adventures in order to motivate(激发) students.She explains，“although kids often see the world in a negative way，without hope for their future，we work to inspire them to set goals，plan for success and never give up...”
Helen grew up in New Zealand.Her parents were athletes and mountain climbers.Following her parents’ example，she climbed her first mountain at 9.Later，she climbed the highest mountains in North and South America，the former USSR and New Zealand.
In 1996，she took on another challenge—the Sahara Desert.She and her husband，Bill，walked 2,400 miles across it！In 2001，she and Bill traveled on foot from west to east through the Gobi Desert in Mongolia.They hope to travel in Chinese mainland into Sichuan and Tibet to study pandas this year.
Helen plans to continue taking trips.She’ll use her explorations，writing，photography and environmental work to create programs for her Adventure Classroom website.She wants to inspire her students never to stop facing challenges!

[得分笔记] “疑问词＋动词不定式”结构是一个常用结构。当该疑问词为疑问代词时，它的常用结构如下：(1)疑问代词＋to＋.(及物动词)；(2)疑问代词＋to＋(不及物动词)＋.(介词)。当该疑问词为疑问副词时，它的常用结构如下：(1)疑问副词＋to＋.；(2)疑问副词＋to＋.＋宾语；(3)疑问副词＋to＋.＋.＋宾语。.完形填空

得分策略
在做完形填空题时，文章中生词比较多，该如何处理生词呢？
遇到生词时，要有目的地去猜想、思考，并对获得
的信息进行推理判断。对与文章大意和做题有关系的重要生词，要采取“热处理”的方法，具体方法是根据词语所处的语境结合上下文内容以及构词法等多种猜词技巧猜测其含义。而对那些不影响文章理解的生词，可采取“冷处理”的方法，忽略即可。
[经典例题] Tales of the supernatural are common in all parts of Britain.In particular，there was(and perhaps still is) a belief in fairies(仙女)．Not all of these 21(fairies) are the friendly，peopleloving characters that appear in Disney films，and in some folktales they are 22(cruel) and cause much human suffering...
[得分笔记] 该句中的“supernatural”一词就需要考生进行推测。super 过于，超过；natural自然的，由此可以推出，该词的意思是“超自然的”，而且由下文的语境可知文章主要讲的内容就是超自然的童话。.阅读理解36．D [推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可知，50岁的Helen Thayer独自到北极探险，她遭到北极熊的袭击，险些丧命，而她带的狗Charlie救了她的性命。]
37．B [细节理解题。第三段的第一句是解题的依据。]
38．D [细节理解题。根据第四段可知，Helen的父母是运动员和登山者，他们对她产生了很大的影响，因此少年的她也开始了爬山活动。]
39．D [细节理解题。根据文章第五段的最后一句可知，Helen和她的丈夫打算到中国的四川和西藏旅游，因此目前她还没有去过四川和西藏。]
40．A [标题概括题。Helen Thayer是探险家，全文围绕她的探险活动展开，因此“The Woman Who Loves Adventure”符合文章内容，故选A项。]

对于长一些、结构复杂一些的句子把握不住其主干结构，读不懂句子的含义，就不能抓住整个篇章的含义。就长难句的特点，可以把它们归纳为五大类。
1．修饰句
这种句子的特点是修饰成分多且长，而且经常是在同一个句子里，既有从句修饰，又有介词短语、分词短语或不定式短语修饰。
