2023年下学期期中考试高三英语参考答案第1页共6页

A

【阅读详解】

21.B［解析］细节理解题。根据Comporta部分第一句中的beenasecretoftheexperts可

知，孔波塔仍然是一个鲜为大多数游客所知的地方，只有少数的旅游行家知道。故选B项。

22.C［解析］细节理解题。由题干中的ZambujeiradoMar,可将答案定位至Zambujeirado

Mar部分,由此部分中的“ForfivedaysinAugust,oneofPortugal?sbiggestyouthmusic

festivals,MEOSudoeste,isheldhere.”可知，每年8月份，ZambujeiradoMar都会举办音乐

节，故选C项。

23.D［解析］细节理解题。根据Lagos部分中的thetownnowconsistsofmostly

18th-and-19th-centurybuildings可知，拉古什现存的建筑物多为十八、十九世纪建造的，

故选D项。

B

24.B段落大意题。根据第一段中的“However,weeksaftertheysetoff,theywerestranded

thereovernightwithoutwater,foodortentsatatemperatureofabout-30℃.（然而，他们出发

几周后，在零下30℃的温度下，他们被困在那里过夜,没有水，没有食物,也没有帐篷。）”和

第二段uActually,thatnightonthemountaintopwasnotthefirsttimethatJacksonhadbeen

closetodeath.（事实上，在山顶的那个夜晚并不是Jackson第一次濒临死亡。）”可知，前两

段主要讲述Jackson在经历的磨难，所以前两段主要讲的是Jackson对生活中的苦难并

不陌生。故选B。

25.A词义猜测题。画线词前动词短语"managedto"的意思是“设法”，结合其后“his

wheelchair和下一句"Tomarkthefirstanniversaryo
