65、经历和计划，故本空为总结句，应表示经过了第一次远足后，“我”爱上了爬山，故选B。39选A前一句讲到“我”不认为自己是一个专业远足者，后一句讲“我”并没有计划去爬世界高峰或挑战高难度的远足，因此本空应该讲“我”远足的运动强度不高，故选A项。40选F前后两句都在讲远足的好处，空处也应是同样的，故F项“它(远足)提供了一个让生活慢下来、脱离尘世的机会”符合语境。第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Tilea isnt my daughter by birth.Last May
