在最后一刻,作者翻滚到雪地里化险为夷,同时学到一个人生道理,那就是学会掌控。
5.细节题。
根据第一段IrememberwatchingthemwithenvybecauseIwasstilltoosmalltogosledding.可知作者因为年龄太小不能去滑雪,只好嫉妒地看着哥哥们玩。
分析可知作者小时候很渴望和哥哥们一起滑雪。
故选C。
6.词义猜测题。
根据语境ItwassoexhilaratingwhenthewindwhippedacrossmyfaceasIflewdownthehillsideonthewoodensled可知这句话描述的是作者在第一次滑雪,在木雪橇上从山上冲下去,风从脸上刮过时的感受。
根据第一段作者渴望滑雪,再结合后文的overjoyed可知作者玩的很开心。
delightful表示“令人愉快的”,terrifying表示“可怕的,极大的”,ordinary表示“普通的”,violent表示“暴力的”。
故选A。

根据前文IwasdoingprettywelltoountilIhitanoldstumphiddenbythesnowandwentoffcourse,straighttowardsoneofthosebigoaktrees.可知作者撞到了雪地里的一个树桩,然后径直撞向一棵大栎树。
再结合后文AtthelastpossiblesecondIrolledoffandthesledcrashedintothetree可知作者在快要撞到栎树的那一刻从雪橇上翻滚下来,这才避开了危险。
分析语境可知作者翻滚是因为撞到树桩,失去平衡,为避免撞到树上。
故选B。
