问题 Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity. Those(51) have a passion for high and difficult mountains are often treated with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risk on high mountains? This astonishment is caused. Probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity, to which men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules,(52) there are for such games as golf and football. There are(53), rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to(54), but it is this freedom from manmade rules that makes mountaineering(55) to many people. Those who climb mountains are(56) to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering and other more(57) sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a "team game". We should be mistaken(58) this. There are no "matches" between "teams" of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope, on which their lives may depend, there is(59) teamwork.
The mountaineer knows that he may have to fight forces of nature that are stronger and more powerful than man. This sport requires high mental and physical(60).
A mountain climber continues to improve in skills(61). A skier is probably past his best(62) the age of thirty. But it is not(63) for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men,(64) they Probably climb with more skill and less waste of effort, and they certainly(65) equal enjoyment.

选项 A、luxurious
B、attractive
C、painful
D、agreeable

答案B

解析 本题要求选择一个形容词来做补语修饰mountaineering。 luxurious意为“奢侈的、浪费的”,painful意为“痛苦的,艰难的”,agreeable意为“宜人的、适合的”,attractive意为“吸引人的”。本句是一个强调句型,意为“正是因为这些人为的规则使登山运动对许多人来说极具魅力”。因此,attractive最合题意。
