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、pleasant
B、likely
C、unusual
D、unique
答案C
解析 pleasant意为“令人高兴的”；likely意为“可能的”；unusual意为“不平常的”；unique意为“惟一的”。由上文语境可得出此处应为C项，即not与unusual组成肯定句式。本句句意为“对50岁或60岁的人来说，登山并不是一件奇怪的事”。
