Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2020·石家庄重点高中摸底)I can proudly say that last year I broke the record for the oldest
person in the world to ride a roller coaster. I’m 105, but I feel younger. Even the doctor agrees I’m
in good condition. I’m a bit deaf and my legs feel weak, but they are the only issue.
I rode the Twistosaurus at Flamingo Land, which spins you round quite fast. I didn’t choose
to go on that. I’d have preferred a really fast one that went upside down. But I was told I couldn’t
ride something like that, because it would affect my blood pressure and I might have some danger.
I wasn’t nervous—I don’t get frightened of anything. I was securely fastened, so I knew I
wouldn’t fall out. The roller coaster ride went on for three or four minutes, and it couldn’t be a
better experience. And I raised a lot of money for the Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air
Ambulance fund, which was fantastic.
People were saying I’d got a place in the Guinness World Records. Later, someone came to
present me with the certificate. I had it on the wall in my living room, with another one I got a
year earlier.
My recordbreaking ways really began a couple of years ago, with the ice bucket challenge.
It turned out that I was probably the oldest person in the world to do it, and the video was very
popular. After that, I started to think about what else I could do to raise money for different
charities.
I’m not sure if anyone admires all the fun I’m having. They just say I’m daft and that’s
about it. But I’ve had many good days and many exciting times. I’ve had a really good life. I don’t
think I’ve wasted any of it.
【解题导语】 本文讲述了世界上玩过山车年龄最大的老人的经历。他已经105岁，获
得了吉尼斯世界纪录证书；此外，他还参加过“冰桶挑战”，为慈善组织募捐。他认为自己
没有浪费人生，过得很充实。
1．Why didn’t the author choose to go on riding the Twistosaurus?
A．Because he was told not to do so.
B．Because he considered it too gentle.
C．Because he thought it spun too fast.
D．Because he was in a bad physical condition.
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I didn’t choose to go on that. I’d have preferred
a really fast one that went upside down.”可知，作者没有选择坐Twistosaurus，是因为他想要
坐真正的快速翻转的过山车，即他认为Twistosaurus太过平缓，故B项正确。

A．He really enjoyed himself.
B．He was very worried at first.
C．He couldn’t think much about it.
D．He got frightened as it started moving.

minutes, and it couldn’t be a better experience.”可知，乘坐过山车持续三到四分钟，作者认

D 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“last year”和第四段的内容，尤其是尾句“I had
it on the wall in my living room, with another one I got a year earlier.”可知，去年作者把这张吉
尼斯世界纪录证书挂在客厅的墙上，还有一张是一年前挂的。据此可知，作者在前年也创造
了一项纪录。

A．Cooperative.
C．Generous.
B．Optimistic.
