考点分类练(七)　词句猜测题(1) Passage 1 (2024广东韶关二模) 主题:在太行山路上投递邮件　词数:311 难度:★★★　 For nearly two decades,a thin,sun-burnt postal worker could frequently be seen carrying packages along a dangerous mountain trail in the Taihang Mountains. The 10-kilometer-long route,which is between 20 centimeters and 1 meter wide,is known as the “cat road” by locals,meaning that it is so dangerous that only cats could walk on it.Whereas,Zhao Yuefang,a postal worker in Ewu township in Huguan county,Shanxi Province,had to walk the route every day to deliver mail. Every day at the crack of dawn,he would start his journey along the “cat road”.From picking up the day’s post to delivering it to villagers and returning along the same route,it took Zhao four days.During rainy and snowy seasons,the mountain road,part of which hugs the cliffs,would become slippery and dangerous.One day in the winter of 2003,the “cat road” was covered in thick snow and he slipped off the trail.Fortunately,he was able to stop his sharp descent by grabbing a tree branch and slowly managed to climb to safety. By 2012,Zhao had walked more than 300,000 km and delivered over 800,000 pieces of mail.Born and raised in the deep mountains,Zhao truly understands the significance of mail deliveries to villagers.“They depend on the mail to keep in touch with the outside world,” he said.“Their sheer joy written on their face while receiving any post struck me,” he added. In 2012,a 67-kilometer-long tourist highway was built and gone were those days when Zhao risked his life to walk on the “cat road”.But Zhao was even busier than before.“The number of packages I handle daily now exceeds the number I used to deal with in the past,” said Zhao,adding that villagers are turning to online shopping and ordering more and more goods by post. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。它讲述了一位名叫赵岳芳的邮政工作人员在太行山的危险山路上投递邮件的故事,通过描述他的工作经历和所面临的挑战,文章展现了其坚持不懈和奉献的精神。 1.Why is the mountain trail referred to as “cat road” A.It’s shaped like a cat.

C.Turn.
