In 2000, at the age of 56, Jeff was going to take a difficult and dangerous journey (旅行) in the Arctic (北极地区). He was planning to walk to the North Pole all by himself, pulling his food, tent (帐篷) and other things behind him in two sledges (雪橇). Because the Arctic is covered with ice and water, he would sometimes have to sit on his sledges and use them like a boat!     Before he started his journey, to make himself stronger, Jeff spent 2 years practicing running and took part in many boat races. He had also traveled in the Arctic for 28 years. All of this was good for him. But there was still trouble.     Jeff was seven days into his journey in the Arctic. It was dark and terribly cold (-35℃). In face of this terribly low temperature, he had made good progress across the ice. Suddenly, the ice broke and one of his sledges fell into the sea. Jeff needed to get it back, so he had to put his hand into the ice-covered water.     Once he had got the sledge back, Jeff put up his tent, lit a fire and tried to warm up his cold hand. It was no help-his hand was seriously hurt as it had been in the cold for so long. He radioed for help, and an airplane was sent to save him. Finally, he arrived at a hospital in Canada. The doctors there said he hurt his left hand in the icy water. They saved his hand and advised him not to travel to the North Pole alone any more.     But Jeff was an explorer and nobody could change his mind. It would be yet another long and difficult challenge for Jeff soon.

  命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
  阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

• 故事类阅读注意：
  初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
