Question

【題目】閱讀以下短文，根據短文后的要求答題。答案不超過5個詞

Like many other primary school pupils, nine-year-old Minnal went abroad with her parents during the recent school holidays. It may come as a surprise to learn that she neither shopped at a mall nor ate at a fancy restaurant. She climbed a mountain.

For eight days in May, Minnal hiked nearly 100 kilometres to reach the 5364-metre-high Everest(珠穆朗瑪峰) base camp in Nepal. The girl talked about her special trip, “I thought this was the most meaningful trip for me.” It has not been confirmed(證實) if the Primary Four pupil is indeed the youngest Singaporean to reach the base camp, as no such records are kept.

Everest’s south base camp in Nepal is where climbers planning to climb the world’s highest peak, stay to get used to the altitude(海拔高度). However, Minnal can’t climb the peak(山峰), because climbers have to be at least sixteen years old to climb the peak.

How did it all start? It all began last year when Minnal’s mother decided she might want to climb the famous Himalayas. As a good hiker, she asked both father and daughter if they were up for the challenge. On 20 May, 2016, the family flew to Nepal.

Minnal shared that most of the eight days were spent hiking ten to fifteen kilometres from 8a.m. to 6 p.m. each day, with the help of three local guides. Luckily, she added, nobody fell ill with altitude sickness. She also said that she is thinking of climbing Everest in the future.

本文主要講述9歲的米納爾在最近的學校假期和父母一起去尼泊爾的南部大本營旅游的故事，她考慮將來攀登珠穆朗瑪峰，因為登山者必須年滿16歲才能攀登這座山峰。她認為這是最有意義的一次旅行。

【1】題意：米納爾在國外期間做了什么？考查細節(jié)理解。根據第1段最后一句She climbed a mountain.（她爬山了。）可知答案是She climbed a mountain.

【3】題意：誰幫助這家人確保他們不會迷路？考查細節(jié)理解。根據第5段第2句Minnal shared that most of the eight days were spent hiking ten to fifteen kilometres from 8a.m. to 6 p.m. each day, with the help of three local guides.（米納爾說，八天中的大部分時間都是在三名當地導游的幫助下，每天早上8點到下午6點徒步旅行10到15公里。）可知三名當地向導幫助這家人確保他們不會迷路；故答案是Three local guides.

【4】題意：米納爾對爬山有什么看法？考查細節(jié)理解。根據第2段第3句I thought this was the most meaningful trip for me.（我認為這是我最有意義的旅行。）可知是“她認為這很有意義�！惫蚀鸢甘�She thought it was meaningful.

【5】題意：米納爾的一家人什么時候飛到尼泊爾的？考查細節(jié)理解。根據第4段最后一句On 20 May, 2016, the family flew to Nepal.（2016年5月20日，家人飛往尼泊爾。）可知米納爾的一家人在2016年5月20日飛到尼泊爾的；故答案是On 20 May, 2016.
