問題詳情：

The government in Tibet has denied the permanent (永久的) closure of Mount Qomolangma National Nature Reserve.

    The announcement came after a report went viral online claiming the base camp of the world's highest mountain was "permanently closed due to heavy pollution" and caused a universal misunderstanding.

    Mount Qomolangma National Nature Reserve was set up in 1988. Covering an area of more than 33,819 square kilometers, it is home to one of the world's weakest ecosystems (生態系統).

    Kelsang, the deputy director of the Reserve Administration, said ordinary tourists were allowed to visit areas around Rongpo Monastery, almost 5,000 meters above sea level. As for travelers who have a climbing permit, they can go to the base camp at an altitude of 5,200 meters. The mountaineering activities have been permitted by the regional forestry department.

    To conserve the environment surrounding Mount Qomolangma, China carried out three major cleanups at an altitude of 5,200 meters and above last spring, collecting eight tonnes of household wastes, human wastes and mountaineering trash. This year, the clean-up will continue, and the remains of mountaineering victims (受害者) above 8,000 meters will be centrally dealt with for the first time. Meanwhile, the number of people who stay at the base camp will be kept under 300.

    Recently, there are 85 wildlife protectors in the reserve, and 1,000 herders have part-time jobs going around and cleaning up garbage.

"These measures aim to strike a balance between various demands such as environmental protection, local poverty relief, mountaineering and education," said Wang Shen, county chief of Dingri at the mountain foot.

【回答】

1-4 ABDD

解析：1.詞義猜測題.根據後文 caused a universal misunderstanding 可推知,一篇聲稱珠峯景區因污染嚴重而永久關閉的報道在網上瘋傳,引起了普遍的誤解,由此可知,畫線詞詞義為"瘋傳",故A項正確.

2.推理判斷題.根據第四段中的 As for travelers who have a climbing permit, they can go to the base camp at an altitude of 5,200 meters. The mountaineering activities have been permitted by the regional forestry department. 可知有登山許可*的遊客,可參觀海拔5,200米的大本營,登山活動已得到林業部門的批准,由此可知,去大本營的遊客必須有登山許可*,故B項正確.

3.細節理解題.根據第五段中的 To conserve the environment surrounding Mount Qomolangma, China carried out three major clean-ups at an altitude of 5,200 meters and above last spring…可知,為了保護珠峯周邊的環境,去年春天,**在海拔5,200米以上的地方進行了三次大清理,故D項正確.

4.細節理解題.根據倒數第二段中的 there are 85 wildlife protectors in the reserve, and 1,000 herders have part-time jobs going around and cleaning up garbage. 可知,保護區裏有85名野生動物保護者,有1,000名牧民做清理垃圾的兼職工作,共有1085個人參與了清理工作,故D項正確.
