However, if farmers want to earn more, they have to solve a range of problems such as scale expansion, processing and marketing, which is almost impossible relying on only their individual strength. But farmers in Nanxiaozhai Village in Huairen, a city in Shanxi, have found a solution. Guo Jianqiang, a resident in Nanxiaozhai, said he started his business in 2013 by raising about300 sheep. The number has since increased to 1, 000. “I earned an income of 2 million yuan ($309, 000) last year and the amount is expected to reach 9 million yuan this year, ” he said. Guo attributed the growth to the establishment of a sheep cooperative, which helped to expand operational scale and sales channels with the joint force of stockholders. According to Guo Zhidong, Party secretary of the village, Nanxiaozhai now has a total of 89 such cooperatives. The cooperatives have also developed a full industrial chain for sheep, ranging from raising, slaughtering and land processing to their sale. Nanxiaozhai has a long history in the sheep industry, according to the village Party chief, who explained that was a natural choice out of the village's environmental conditions. In Nanxiaozhai, residents used to farm on the infertile (不肥沃的) land and the grain yield could hardly support their existence. It was Lang Yueming, Cao Zhiguo and other villagers who started their business as sheep dealers in the late 1970s. “They could earn up to 20 yuan for selling a sheep,” Guo Zhidong said. “That was a very large income at that time.” Later, about 80 percent of the villagers were engaged in the business but they found purchasing sheep from neighboring villages became more difficult because of limited output. So they began to raise sheep themselves. The village business has boosted the sheep industry in Huairen as a whole. Statistics show the city’s annual output of sheep is about 6 million heads, making it a renowned sheep-producing base in Shanxi. 4. What is the problem faced by farmers in Nanxiaozhai? A. Finding better places to sell lambs. B. Satisfying the demand for more sheep. C. Making larger profits on their own. D. Destroying the environment with herds. 5. What does the underlined word “slaughtering” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Killing. B. Producing. C. Counting. D. Feeding. 6. What can we know about residents in Nanxiaozhai? A. They are proud of being sheep dealers. B. They adapt to the conditions successfully. C. They benefit substantially from working on the land. D. They can't buy any sheep in the neighboring villages. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Rise and Fall of Nanxiaozhai Village B. Sheep Herding Brings Prosperity Flocking C. The Switch from Sheep Industry to Farming D. Establishing Cooperatives Boosts Connections C “Why?” It’s a simple question that people ask Angela Madeline frequently. After all, she began a journey that very few people would ever attempt: walk around the world alone. The thought of Madeline’s journey did not start from a place of loss or personal crisis. She said, “I was searching for a deeper interaction with nature and people.” Walking would minimize her carbon footprint, plus the slow pace meant that she could fully engage herself in nature, and gain insights into other cultures in a unique way. She left her hometown of Bend, Oregon, on 2 May 2016 and headed into an adventure. Along the way, Madeline would suffer from heatstroke (中暑) in the Australian desert and hear gunshots while camping in Turkey. “Still,” she said, “I didn’t stop because I was more afraid of not following my heart than I was of losing everything I owned and loved.” Apart from that, her slow pace allowed her to be drawn deeply into other cultures. She wandered the tiny seaside villages along Italy Tyrthenian Sea, enjoying the lively atmosphere. In Vietnam, she was offered food by an elderly woman and invited to rest in her wooden house at the peak for the night. She chose an experience of uncertainty and curiosity, in search of something she could never be certain to find: a sense of fulfillment and a deeper connection. On16 December 2022, Madeline’s pilgrimage (朝圣之旅) ended right where it started. For now, she’s working on a book, planning future journeys and creating more effective ways for women to find and express courage in their lives. Whether a walk leads halfway around the world or just down the road, Madeline has shown the true worth of embracing (拥抱) the unknown and giving more than we receive along the way. 8. Why did Madeline decide to start her journey? A. To get rid of personal crisis. B. To get closer to the world. C. To reduce carbon footprint. D. To slow down the pace of life. 9. What can we know about Madeline during the journey? A. She was about to give up. B. She was helped by Italian locals. C. She experienced various cultures. D. She enjoyed Australian coastal scenery. 10. Which of the following words can best describe Madeline? A. Cautious and gentle. B. Tough and adventurous. C. Outgoing and generous. D. Open-minded and humorous. 11. What’s this text mainly about? A. A new way to slow down life. B. A closer connection with the wild. C. An unforgettable memory of a trip. D. A woman walking around the world. D Someone has put forward a dream home which is so advanced that its kitchen can suggest what to make with certain things. Also, a Microsoft home doesn’t just warn you when you’re out of milk — it can send you a fresh gallon. But are these innovations just magic, or are they really coming soon to a neighborhood near you? To find out, US News asked some experts to get their opinions about the home of the not-so-distant future. Here’s a look at the innovations. The housing boom was marked by mass-produced buildings filled with units which look the same. The coming years, however, will give way to a personalized approach to home construction, with houses as more of an instrument of self-expression. “The successful builders will be the ones that figure out how to change their production model enough to make the buyers feel like they are really getting something that is designed for them, not just a model,” says Kermit Baker, the chief economist at the American Institute of Architects. Future homes will probably become smaller. “We will be building smaller but smarter houses” says Ed MeMahon, a senior resident fellow at the Urban Land Institute. “Instead of having a room for just one use, consumers will demand homes that make better use of space,” says Susanka, whose best-selling book, The Not So Big House, has become increasingly influential in home design. Seldom-used quarters, such as dining and living rooms, will be replaced with space that can serve both functions. “The goal of his ‘right-size’ home is to fit its owners like a specially cut suit rather than a jacket you buy in a store,” says Susanka. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To present the main idea the passage. B. To present what the future house is like. C To lead to the topic of the passage. D. To show the history the housing. 13. What were houses like during the housing boom? A. Almost all the houses had no their own features. B. The houses were designed according to owners’ idea. C. The houses were smaller but smarter than before. D. The houses could change production model easily. 14. What kind of house may be popular in the future? A. Those that are much bigger and brighter. B. Those that are much smaller but smarter. C. Those that are much bigger and smarter. D. Those that are environmental and energy saving. 15. What’s Susanka’s opinion about smart house? A. Smart houses have a room for every use. B. Smart houses can make better use of space. C. Smart houses have very advanced furniture. D. Smart houses can warn you when you’re out of milk. 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The history of the school bus can date back to 1886 when Wayne Works company made horse-drawn carriages (四轮马车) known as “school wagons” or “kid hacks” in Indiana. ___16___ In the early 1900s, the car industry was beginning to develop fast.

We were all excited about the adventure ahead, but little did we know what was in store for us. We arrived at the campsite in the late afternoon. The sun was setting, and the sky was painted with hues of orange and pink. We set up our tents and started a fire to cook our dinner. As we sat around the fire, we planned our activities for the next day. We decided to go on a hike to see the nearby waterfall. The next morning, we woke up early and set out on our hike. The trail was steep and narrow, but the scenery was breathtaking. We passed through the forests and crossed the streams. As we got higher, the air became colder and thinner. We had to stop frequently to catch our breath. After a few hours of hiking, we finally reached the waterfall. It was amazing. The water fell down from a great height, and the mist created a rainbow. We sat down to catch our breath and take in the beauty of the waterfall. But our adventure was far from over. As we were about to leave we noticed dark clouds gathering overhead. It started raining heavily, and we realized that we had not brought any rain gear. We were completely soaked(湿透)and trembling in the cold. We decided to take shelter in a nearby cave until the rain stopped. The cave was dark and damp, but it gave us a brief relief from the rain. We sat there for what seemed like hours, waiting for the rain to stop. But it only got worse. The thunder was so loud that it echoed through the cave, and the lightning was so bright that it lit up the cave like daylight. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 We were scared and worried. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That night, as we sat around the fire, we reflected on our adventure. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 BCAAB 6-10 BCBAB 11-15 CABAC 16-20 ACCBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023—2024学年度（下）联合体高二期末检测 英语 （满分：150分 考试时间：120分钟） 注意事项： 1. 答题时，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡规定的位置上。 2. 答选择题时，必须使用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。 3. 答非选择题时，必须使用黑色墨水笔或黑色签字笔，将答案书写在答题卡规定的位置上，写在试题卷、草稿纸上无效。 4. 考试结束后，将试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有 10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

However, if farmers want to earn more, they have to solve a range of problems such as scale expansion, processing and marketing, which is almost impossible relying on only their individual strength. But farmers in Nanxiaozhai Village in Huairen, a city in Shanxi, have found a solution. Guo Jianqiang, a resident in Nanxiaozhai, said he started his business in 2013 by raising about300 sheep. The number has since increased to 1, 000. “I earned an income of 2 million yuan ($309, 000) last year and the amount is expected to reach 9 million yuan this year, ” he said. Guo attributed the growth to the establishment of a sheep cooperative, which helped to expand operational scale and sales channels with the joint force of stockholders. According to Guo Zhidong, Party secretary of the village, Nanxiaozhai now has a total of 89 such cooperatives. The cooperatives have also developed a full industrial chain for sheep, ranging from raising, slaughtering and land processing to their sale. Nanxiaozhai has a long history in the sheep industry, according to the village Party chief, who explained that was a natural choice out of the village's environmental conditions. In Nanxiaozhai, residents used to farm on the infertile (不肥沃的) land and the grain yield could hardly support their existence. It was Lang Yueming, Cao Zhiguo and other villagers who started their business as sheep dealers in the late 1970s. “They could earn up to 20 yuan for selling a sheep,” Guo Zhidong said. “That was a very large income at that time.” Later, about 80 percent of the villagers were engaged in the business but they found purchasing sheep from neighboring villages became more difficult because of limited output. So they began to raise sheep themselves. The village business has boosted the sheep industry in Huairen as a whole. Statistics show the city’s annual output of sheep is about 6 million heads, making it a renowned sheep-producing base in Shanxi. 4. What is the problem faced by farmers in Nanxiaozhai? A. Finding better places to sell lambs. B. Satisfying the demand for more sheep. C. Making larger profits on their own. D. Destroying the environment with herds. 5. What does the underlined word “slaughtering” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Killing. B. Producing. C. Counting. D. Feeding. 6. What can we know about residents in Nanxiaozhai? A. They are proud of being sheep dealers. B They adapt to the conditions successfully. C. They benefit substantially from working on the land. D. They can't buy any sheep in the neighboring villages. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Rise and Fall of Nanxiaozhai Village B. Sheep Herding Brings Prosperity Flocking C. The Switch from Sheep Industry to Farming D. Establishing Cooperatives Boosts Connections 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了山西怀仁市南小寨村通过建立养羊专业合作社，发展全产业链，让村民们走上了致富之路。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的 “However, if farmers want to earn more, they have to solve a range of problems such as scale expansion, processing and marketing, which is almost impossible relying on only their individual strength. (然而，如果农民想赚更多的钱，他们必须解决规模扩张、加工和营销等一系列问题，而仅靠他们的个人力量几乎是不可能的。)” 可知，南小寨村的农民面临的问题是——仅靠个人力量难以赚更多的钱。故选C项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的 “The cooperatives have also developed a full industrial chain for sheep, ranging from raising, slaughtering and land processing to their sale.(合作社还发展了从饲养、 、土地加工到销售的全产业链。)” 可知，这里讲的是养羊全产业链，包括饲养、土地处理、销售，再根据顺序可推知， slaughtering 表示“屠宰”的意思，与killing同义。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段 “Nanxiaozhai has a long history in the sheep industry, according to the village Party chief, who explained that was a natural choice out of the village's environmental conditions. In Nanxiaozhai, residents used to farm on the infertile (不肥沃的) land and the grain yield could hardly support their existence.(据村党委书记介绍，南小寨在养羊业有着悠久的历史，他解释说，这是出于村里环境条件的自然选择。在南小寨，人们过去常常在贫瘠的土地上耕种，粮食产量很难维持他们的生存。)” 以及最后一段“The village business has boosted the sheep industry in Huairen as a whole. Statistics show the city's annual output of sheep is about 6 million heads, making it a renowned sheep-producing base in Shanxi.(村里的生意带动了怀仁的养羊业。据统计，全市羊年产量约600万头，是山西著名的羊生产基地。)”可知，南小寨村的农民们一开始在贫瘠的土地上耕种，但难以维持生计，他们发展养羊业是出于村里环境条件的自然选择，他们现在靠养羊致富了。由此推知，村民们成功地适应了环境。故选B项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据文章第三段、第四段以及最后一段中的 “The village business has boosted the sheep industry in Huairen as a whole.(村里的生意带动了怀仁的养羊业。)”可知，本文主要讲述了山西怀仁市南小寨村通过建立养羊专业合作社，发展全产业链，让村民们走上了致富之路。由此可知，B 项Sheep Herding Brings Prosperity Flocking(养羊带动群荣)最适合用作本文标题。故选B项。 C “Why?” It’s a simple question that people ask Angela Madeline frequently. After all, she began a journey that very few people would ever attempt: walk around the world alone. The thought of Madeline’s journey did not start from a place of loss or personal crisis. She said “I was searching for a deeper interaction with nature and people.” Walking would minimize her carbon footprint, plus the slow pace meant that she could fully engage herself in nature, and gain insights into other cultures in a unique way. She left her hometown of Bend, Oregon, on 2 May 2016 and headed into an adventure. Along the way, Madeline would suffer from heatstroke (中暑) in the Australian desert and hear gunshots while camping in Turkey. “Still,” she said, “I didn’t stop because I was more afraid of not following my heart than I was of losing everything I owned and loved.” Apart from that, her slow pace allowed her to be drawn deeply into other cultures. She wandered the tiny seaside villages along Italy Tyrthenian Sea, enjoying the lively atmosphere. In Vietnam, she was offered food by an elderly woman and invited to rest in her wooden house at the peak for the night. She chose an experience of uncertainty and curiosity, in search of something she could never be certain to find: a sense of fulfillment and a deeper connection. On16 December 2022, Madeline’s pilgrimage (朝圣之旅) ended right where it started. For now, she’s working on a book, planning future journeys and creating more effective ways for women to find and express courage in their lives. Whether a walk leads halfway around the world or just down the road, Madeline has shown the true worth of embracing (拥抱) the unknown and giving more than we receive along the way. 8. Why did Madeline decide to start her journey? A To get rid of personal crisis. B. To get closer to the world. C. To reduce carbon footprint. D. To slow down the pace of life. 9. What can we know about Madeline during the journey? A. She was about to give up. B. She was helped by Italian locals. C. She experienced various cultures. D. She enjoyed Australian coastal scenery. 10. Which of the following words can best describe Madeline? A. Cautious and gentle. B. Tough and adventurous. C. Outgoing and generous. D. Open-minded and humorous. 11. What’s this text mainly about? A. A new way to slow down life. B. A closer connection with the wild. C. An unforgettable memory of a trip. D. A woman walking around the world. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Angela Madeline徒步环游世界，寻求与自然和文化的深度交流，历经艰难仍坚持完成旅程，展现了探索未知的勇气与收获。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第二段“The thought of Madeline’s journey did not start from a place of loss or personal crisis. She said, “I was searching for a deeper interaction with nature and people.” Walking would minimize her carbon footprint, plus the slow pace meant that she could fully engage herself in nature, and gain insights into other cultures in a unique way. (想到玛德琳的旅程，并不是出于一种失落或个人危机。她说：“我一直在寻找一种与自然和人更深层次的互动。”步行可以最大限度地减少她的碳足迹，加上缓慢的步伐意味着她可以完全融入大自然，并以一种独特的方式了解其他文化。)”可知，玛德琳为了更接近这个世界，决定开始她的旅程。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段“Apart from that, her slow pace allowed her to be drawn deeply into other cultures. She wandered the tiny seaside villages along Italy Tyrthenian Sea, enjoying the lively atmosphere. In Vietnam, she was offered food by an elderly woman and invited to rest in her wooden house at the peak for the night. She chose an experience of uncertainty and curiosity, in search of something she could never be certain to find: a sense of fulfillment and a deeper connection. (除此之外，她缓慢的步伐使她深深地被其他文化所吸引。她漫步在意大利第勒尼安海沿岸的小海边村庄，享受着热闹的气氛。在越南，一位老妇人给了她食物，并邀请她在山顶的木屋里过夜。她选择了一种充满不确定性和好奇心的体验，去寻找一些她永远不确定能找到的东西:一种满足感和一种更深层次的联系。)”可知，在旅途中，玛德琳经历了多种文化。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段“She left her hometown of Bend, Oregon, on 2 May 2016 and headed into an adventure. Along the way, Madeline would suffer from heatstroke (中暑) in the Australian desert and hear gunshots while camping in Turkey. “Still,” she said, “I didn’t stop because I was more afraid of not following my heart than I was of losing everything I owned and loved.” (2016年5月2日，她离开家乡俄勒冈州本德市，开始了一段冒险之旅。一路上，玛德琳在澳大利亚沙漠中暑，在土耳其露营时听到枪声。“尽管如此，”她说，“我没有停下来，因为比起失去我所拥有和所爱的一切，我更害怕不跟随自己的心。”)”可知，她面对旅途中的种种困难，如在澳大利亚沙漠中中暑、在土耳其露营时听到枪声，但她都没有放弃，这体现了她的坚韧。同时，独自环游世界的决定本身就是一种冒险。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段中“After all, she began a journey that very few people would ever attempt: walk around the world alone. (毕竟，她开始了一段很少有人会尝试的旅程:独自环游世界。)”可知，文章主要讲述了Angela Madeline徒步环游世界，寻求与自然和文化的深度交流，历经艰难仍坚持完成旅程，展现了探索未知的勇气与收获。选项D“A woman walking around the world. (一个女人环游世界)”符合题意。故选D。 D Someone has put forward a dream home which is so advanced that its kitchen can suggest what to make with certain things. Also, a Microsoft home doesn’t just warn you when you’re out of milk — it can send you a fresh gallon. But are these innovations just magic, or are they really coming soon to a neighborhood near you? To find out, US News asked some experts to get their opinions about the home of the not-so-distant future. Here’s a look at the innovations. The housing boom was marked by mass-produced buildings filled with units which look the same. The coming years, however, will give way to a personalized approach to home construction, with houses as more of an instrument of self-expression. “The successful builders will be the ones that figure out how to change their production model enough to make the buyers feel like they are really getting something that is designed for them, not just a model,” says Kermit Baker, the chief economist at the American Institute of Architects. Future homes will probably become smaller. “We will be building smaller but smarter houses,” says Ed MeMahon, a senior resident fellow at the Urban Land Institute. “Instead of having a room for just one use, consumers will demand homes that make better use of space,” says Susanka, whose best-selling book, The Not So Big House, has become increasingly influential in home design. Seldom-used quarters, such as dining and living rooms, will be replaced with space that can serve both functions. “The goal of his ‘right-size’ home is to fit its owners like a specially cut suit rather than a jacket you buy in a store,” says Susanka. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To present the main idea the passage. B. To present what the future house is like. C. To lead to the topic of the passage. D. To show the history the housing. 13. What were houses like during the housing boom? A. Almost all the houses had no their own features. B. The houses were designed according to owners’ idea. C. The houses were smaller but smarter than before. D. The houses could change production model easily. 14. What kind of house may be popular in the future? A. Those that are much bigger and brighter. B. Those that are much smaller but smarter. C. Those that are much bigger and smarter. D. Those that are environmental and energy saving. 15. What’s Susanka’s opinion about smart house? A. Smart houses have a room for every use. B. Smart houses can make better use of space. C. Smart houses have very advanced furniture. D. Smart houses can warn you when you’re out of milk. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了未来的房子更小但更智能。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Someone has put forward a dream home which is so advanced that its kitchen can suggest what to make with certain things. Also, a Microsoft home doesn’t just warn you when you’re out of milk—it can send you a fresh gallon.(有人提出了一个梦想之家，它是如此先进，以至于它的厨房可以建议用某些东西做什么。此外，微软家居不仅会在你的牛奶用完时提醒你，还会给你送来一加仑新鲜的牛奶)”以及第二段“But are these innovations just magic, or are they really coming soon to a neighborhood near you? To find out, US News asked some experts to get their opinions about the home of the not-so-distant future. Here’s a look at the innovations.(但是，这些创新仅仅是魔术，还是它们真的很快就会出现在你身边?为了找到答案，《美国新闻与世界报道》采访了一些专家，征求他们对不久的将来的家园的看法。让我们来看看这些创新)”可知，作者在第一段提到a dream home and a Microsoft home是为了引出本文话题。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The housing boom was marked by mass-produced buildings filled with units which look the same.(房地产繁荣的标志是大量生产的建筑，里面充斥着看起来一模一样的单元)”可知，在房产繁荣时期，几乎所有的房子没有自己的特点。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Future homes will probably become smaller. “We will be building smaller but smarter houses,” says Ed MeMahon, a senior resident fellow at the Urban Land Institute.(未来的房子可能会变得更小。“我们将建造更小但更智能的房子，”城市土地研究所高级研究员埃德•梅洪表示)”可知，未来的房子可能更小更智能。故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““Instead of having a room for just one use, consumers will demand homes that make better use of space(消费者将要求更好地利用空间，而不是只有一个用途的房间)”可知，更智能的房子指的是能够更好地利用空间的房子。故选B。 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The history of the school bus can date back to 1886 when Wayne Works company made horse-drawn carriages (四轮马车) known as “school wagons” or “kid hacks” in Indiana. ___16___ In the early 1900s, the car industry was beginning to develop fast.

We were all excited about the adventure ahead, but little did we know what was in store for us. We arrived at the campsite in the late afternoon. The sun was setting, and the sky was painted with hues of orange and pink. We set up our tents and started a fire to cook our dinner. As we sat around the fire, we planned our activities for the next day. We decided to go on a hike to see the nearby waterfall. The next morning, we woke up early and set out on our hike. The trail was steep and narrow, but the scenery was breathtaking. We passed through the forests and crossed the streams. As we got higher, the air became colder and thinner. We had to stop frequently to catch our breath. After a few hours of hiking we finally reached the waterfall. It was amazing. The water fell down from a great height, and the mist created a rainbow. We sat down to catch our breath and take in the beauty of the waterfall. But our adventure was far from over. As we were about to leave, we noticed dark clouds gathering overhead. It started raining heavily, and we realized that we had not brought any rain gear. We were completely soaked(湿透)and trembling in the cold. We decided to take shelter in a nearby cave until the rain stopped. The cave was dark and damp, but it gave us a brief relief from the rain. We sat there for what seemed like hours, waiting for the rain to stop. But it only got worse. The thunder was so loud that it echoed through the cave, and the lightning was so bright that it lit up the cave like daylight. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 We were scared and worried. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That night, as we sat around the fire, we reflected on our adventure. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: We were scared and worried. We had no way of contacting anyone, and we had no idea how long the storm would last. We decided to wait it out and hoped for the best. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, the rain stopped. The sun came out, and we could see the blue sky. We quickly packed up our things and started our way back. The road was slippery and muddy, but we made it back to our campsite safely. That night, as we sat around the fire, we reflected on our adventure. We realized that we had been through a lot, but we had also learned a valuable lesson. We had learned to be prepared for anything and to always expect the unexpected. Our camping trip turned out to be an unforgettable adventure. We had hiked to see a magnificent waterfall, taken shelter in a cave during a thunderstorm, and made it back to our campsite safely. We had faced our fears, which made us stronger and wiser. It was an experience that we will never forget. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者去山里野营的经历为线索展开，讲述了作者和朋友去山里野营，到达营地后计划第二天的活动，在第二天去看附近的瀑布时，空气越来越稀薄，作者与朋友们经常停下来喘息，最后到达瀑布，欣赏到美丽的瀑布，再要离开的时候，遭遇到了大雨，而且情况越来越糟糕。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我们既害怕又担心。”可知，第一段可描写作者与朋友们害怕担心的原因，结合第二段提示的内容，该部分要提及作者与朋友们最后到营地，所以要介绍一下作者是如何解决问题的。 ②由第二段首句内容“那天晚上，我们围坐在炉火旁，回想着我们的历险。”可知，第二段可描写作者在这次经历中学到了什么。 2.续写线索：担心害怕——等待时机——回到营地——回忆经历——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①决定：decide/make up one’s mind/determine ②意识到：realize/be aware ③面临：face/be faced with 情绪类 ①难忘的：unforgettable/memorable ②害怕：fear/fright/horror 【点睛】[高分句型1].
