There was a pilot(飞行员) and four people in a small plane.Suddenly there was something wrong with the machine(机器) while it was flying in the air. The smoke was everywhere in the plane.The pilot told the people there were only four parachutes(降落伞).They all became worried and started to make excuses(借口).
“I must go and mend the machine,”said the pilot , taking one of the parachutes.There was nothing he could do so he jumped out.
The first person stood up. “I’m a doctor,”he said. “I help people live longer and I save lives”He also took a parachute and jumped out.
The next person said , “I must have a parachute.I’m a very clever person.I have to attend (参加)an important sports match.I know I’ll win the game because I’ll be the cleverest person there.”He picked up a pack and jumped out.
Two men were left--- an old businessman and a young mountain climber(登山者).By this time the plane was going down fast.The businessman said, “Young man,I’m old but you’re still young ,You take the last parachute.”The yougng mountain climber smiled , “Don’t worry.”he said, “We can both jump to safety because there are still two parachutes.Just now the clever person jumped out with my backpack.”

网友回答
(答案→)B
解析：
【小题1】本文第一句提到在一架小飞机上有一个飞行员和4个人，然后文中随后介绍飞机发生了一点故障，飞行员告诉飞机上的乘客，飞机上只有4个降落伞，于是飞机上的人都变得担心和焦虑起来，担心的原因是飞机上有5个人，但飞机上只有4个降落伞，没有足够的降落伞，所以本题选B。
【小题2】本文第四段最后一句He picked up a pack and jumped out.意思为他捡起了包裹跳出飞机，他指代第四段中所提到的聪明人，由本文最后一句Just now the clever person jumped out with my backpack.可知聪明人捡起的是登山者的背包，而不是降落伞，故本题选C。
【小题3】根据最后一段第二行的一句The businessman said, “Young man,I’m old but you’re still young ,You take the last parachute.”可知商人把最后生的希望留给别人，考虑的是别人而不是自己，所以飞机上除了商人之外，其他四个人想到的都是自己，故本题选B。
【小题4】根据本文最后一句可知，聪明的人把登山者的背包误当成降落伞跳出飞机，而其他四个人都有了降落伞，所以可能死亡的人是那个聪明的人，故本题选A。
