【題目】 It's 4:54 a. m. on a November morning in 2016 in Yosemite National Park, the United States. The moon shone over the south-west face of El Capitan. Alex Honnold was alone. He held on tightly to the rock with nothing but the tips of his fingers and two thin edges of shoe rubber. He was trying to do something that had been considered impossible-a "free solo" (徒手攀巖) up the world's most dangerous cliff.

Some people think free soloing is a meaningless sport. The sport, they say, has claimed the lives of many professional climbers. Others think mastering a mountain with only excellent physical and mental skill is the essence of climbing. Such was the attitude of Paul Preuss. Preuss was the father of free soloing. By the age of 27, he had made about 150 ropeless climbs He was admired (欽佩) throughout Europe. Then, on October 3,1913, he fell to his death while free soloing a cliff in the Alps (阿爾卑斯山).

But Preuss's ideas lived on. They have influenced generations of climbers. In the 1960s, the "free climbing" movement was born. The movement supports using ropes and other gears (設備) but only as safety devices. The next serious free soloist appeared in 1973. Henry Barber climbed a 460-meter-tall rock in Yosemite without a rope. In 1987, Peter Croft, a Canadian, free soloed two of Yosemite's most dangerous routes in one day.

Croft's achievement stood until 2007. That year, 22-year-old Honnold showed up in Yosemite. He surprised the world by repeating Croft's masterpiece. The next year, he free soloed two famously difficult routes in America. The routes were so dangerous that no one had imagined they could be climbed without a rope.

Now, as fans celebrate his achievements, Honnold is preparing for his next big goal. Thousands of moves are still to come. Honnold is on his way to completing the greatest rock climb in history.

【1】How many ropeless climbs had Paul Preuss made by the age of 27? _______.

【2】On October 3,1931, Preuss _______.

【3】The "free climbing" movement was born _______.

【4】Alex Honnold repeated Peter Croft's masterpiece _______.

【5】Now, Honoold is on his way to _______.

Do you know what happened later? The acorn planted in the forest lived happily. It enjoyed the sunshine and rich soil.

What about the acorn standing on a hillside?

It knew that it must make itself strong enough to protect【7】from the threatening（威脅）of winds and storms. Year by year, it stood straight there all the time no matter how bad the weather would be.
