【答案】 CBThe contention that the spirit of adventure no longer has any scope for its enterprises seems,at first glance,depressingly true.The highest mountains have been scaled;the deepest seas plumbed.Maps today no longer contain huge blanks marked“Unknown Territory”,more do they make random guesses at the shapes of distant land­masses.All major journeys of exploration to determine the true shape and nature of the globe have been made in the past.It was left to us to fill in the details with expeditions which once would have been considered impossible.The gaps have been filled.What next?The obvious answer,of course,is that now looking upwards into space.Discoveries are being made at such a tremendous rate that even authors of science­fiction are finding it difficult to keep up with them and have to taxtheir imagination to invent bigger and better space­craft.Satellites sending signals as they swing round our globe have become commonplace.Astronauts have successfully landed on the moon and its entire surface has been photographed.The information that satellites may provide fueling stations for manned rockets into outer space in the hope of receiving an answer,or that radio­telescopes should “listen into” the skies for possible signals from other worlds,he would have been regarded as either irresponsible or mad.Now,anything seems feasible.From dream like these,we return to earth with a bump.Trips into space are all very well,but they are not for us:we must be content with our own,much­traveled world.The earth itself is the training­ground for adventurous spirits.For “adventure”need not mean the seeking out of something new.A person can be called adventurous when he finds out something for himself;and it does not matter how many times the discovery has been made before.No one would say that men who set out now to cross the forbidding Antarctic are less enterprising than their predecessors who tried to do the same thing.The little boy who climbs the small hill that overlooks his own,or even he who tries to climb and fails,has precisely the same spirit that led Hillary to climb Everest.For the bold spirit and inquiring mind,there are inexhaustible possibilities.So long as there are people willing to rediscover places that are well­known,there will be those who will,one day,set foot on remote and trackless shores.【语篇解读】本篇文章主题是“冒险精神”,虽然在目前发达科技的帮助下,人们的探险已经走出地球走向太空,但是真正的冒险精神指的不仅仅是探索未知领域,更是某人自己通过努力达到了以前从未达到的高度。

4.What does the underlined word “they” in the first paragraph refer to?A.The highest mountains.B.The deepest seas.C.Maps.D.Land­masses.【解析】代词指代题。
