They drop their heavy loads on the sand. They forget how hot and tired they are and run into the sea. They play in the water. “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 6 页 共 19 页 These tired men are happy because one of them has just become the first person to walk from the start of the Amazon River to the ocean. His name is Ed Stafford. The other man’s name is Cho Sanchez. Cho has been with Ed for the final two years of the walk. He helped Ed to find a way through the dense forests of three South American countries: Peru, Columbia and Brazil. The Amazon is about 6, 500 kilometres long. Ed’s walk started in April 2008 at the beginning of the river-high in the mountains of Peru. It ended two and a half years later in August 2010 in Brazil where the river flows into the Atlantic Ocean. Along the way Ed Stafford faced cold snow and high mountain paths. But most of the walk was through hot, wet forests. They faced many dangers from wild animals. But the big danger for ED and Cho came from people. Most of the people they met on their long walk were friendly. They gave Ed and Cho food and shelter. But some people were afraid of Ed because he has a white skin. They had heard stories that white people would eat their babies or steal their heads and other parts of their bodies. Ed understood the people’s fear. He says, “They only wanted to protect their land and the way they live. When they know there is no danger they are very kind.” On his walk Ed saw that many trees had been cut down. This made him very sad. Too many trees are being destroyed, and this is changing the climate of the world. Ed Stafford did something no one else has achieved. Now he wants to tell people all around the world about the dangers we face from destroying the forests of Peru and Brazil. 24. Why were the local people afraid of Ed? A. Ed was a danger to them. B. Ed looked strange to them. C. They saw white people do cruel things. D.They had misunderstanding of white people. “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 7 页 共 19 页 25. What is Ed’s attitude towards the people’s fear? A. Surprised. B. Puzzled. C. Concerned. D. Reasonable. 26. What could be Ed’s purpose of walking down the Amazon? A. To help the local people. B. To find a way to pass the Amazon. C. To help protect the environment of the Amazon. D. To learn about the cultures of the local people. 27. What could be the best title for the text? A. Two Brave Explorers B. The Amazon Walk C. Protection of the Amazon D. The Importance of the Amazon C It is exam time in the year 2020 and pupils are feeling tense. Suddenly gentle music starts to play, the corridors filled with a soft blue light and a soft breeze blows through the classrooms. In another part of the school, a geography teacher creates a jungle in his classroom, complete with steam, heat and smells. Elsewhere, a history teacher recreates the freezing conditions of the siege of Leningrad (列宁格勒保卫战). “Intelligent” school buildings, which respond to pupils’ moods, are just one of the predictions made in a report by Futurelab, the Bristol education centre . They predict that in 13 years’ time, pupils will have 24-hour access to a new kind of wireless—incorporating the Internet, television and telephone — through tiny devices in the fabric of their clothes. Pupils will be able to look back at lessons at any time via special glasses, which will record their whole lives, creating a reliable “virtual memory”. Hands-free virtual reality computer games will change, too, by picking up brain activity through a tiny cap worn by the player. Virtual environments, such as those already found in the online game Second Life, will allow pupils to have lessons with teachers “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 8 页 共 19 页 in other schools or overseas. Security in schools will change, too. Advanced biometric ( 生 物 计量 的 ) full-body scanning system, embedded ( 镶 嵌 ) in doorways, could allow pupils and staff access to different rooms without the need for keys, passwords or retinal (视网膜的) scans. And the system would refuse access to criminals and excluded pupils. Keri Racer, the research director at Future-lab, said technology would become so embedded in clothes, everyday objects and schools that it would become harder to see where the child ends and the technology begins. 28. The first paragraph serves as a( n) _______. A. introduction B. discussion C. analysis D. description 29. Which of the following is true about the “Intelligent” school buildings in 2020? A. They can prevent students from feeling nervous. B. They can react properly to students’ moods. “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 9 页 共 19 页 C. They are open to students 24 hours a day. D. They can let students have different lessons at the same time. 30. What can students do in 13 years’ time according to paragraph 3? A. They can remember everything without any effort. B. They can have the Internet in the fabric of their clothes. C. They can review lessons anytime they like. D. They can learn through computer games. 31. What’s the purpose of advanced biometric full-body scanning systems? A. To make the school safer. B. To pick out the potential criminals. C. To make access to different rooms easier. D. To check on the health of students and staff. D A blow-fly (绿头苍蝇) was looking for an ideal place to lay eggs, like rotting meat, so that when her little maggots (蛆) were born, they could feed on the meat. As she turned a corner in the grassland, she smelt something stinking in the air. The smell of rotten meat! With great joy she perched on it and laid her eggs. She was happy that her children would have enough food to eat. The blow-fly did not know she had made a great mistake. What she had sat upon was not meat but a flower, which stinks. It is called a carrion flower (牛 尾草). So, when the blow-fly’s eggs hatched and the little maggots came out, they had nothing to eat. They died of starvation. The carrion flower is one of the many flowers which give out dirty smells to attract flies. The Rafflesia stinks like rotting meat, while the tropical Lords and Ladies flower gives out a smell like rotting fish. They do it for a special reason. Unlike mating birds, these plants cannot move from their place. But it is important for the male cell of one plant to get in touch with the female cell of another plant. Once that is done , the seed “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 10 页 共 19 页 of the plant will bloom and give birth to another plant. The plant uses its stink to attract flies. As soon as the blow-fly sits on the flower, it is captured by the flower with strong hair. When the hair falls, the fly is free to fly, but it takes some pollen (花粉) with it. And goes and sits on another plant. The male cell of one plant meets the female cell of the other. The seed gets new life. 32. What does the underlined word “stinking” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Moving around. B. Shaking in the wind. C. Being in full bloom. D. Giving out bad smell. 33. What happens to the maggots after a blow-fly lays its eggs on a carrion flower? A. They feed on the flower. B. They die of hunger. C. They become blow-flies again. D. They become food of the flower. 34. Why does the carrion flower attract flies? A. To get food for itself. B. To kill the flies. C. To get their maggots. D. To let the flies help with its reproduction. 35. What can be inferred from the text? A. The blow-fly only lays eggs on a carrion flower. B. The carrion-flower and the blow-fly benefit each other. C. The blow-fly falls victim to the carrion flower in the end. D. The blow-fly helps the carrion flower in an important way. 第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文,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。 Many people become successful because they pay attention to the lessons that “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 11 页 共 19 页 life teaches them. 36 However, by learning to deal with the challenges, one can come out of the experience, wiser, stronger and more able to face whatever else lies ahead. Life lessons can occur in any area. Although we learn many things each day, we don’t always learn something that we feel will affect our behavior for the rest of our lives. 37 It is usually something we are greatly changed by. For example, if we respond in a certain way to something and then face unpleasant consequences, we’ll rethink how we handled the situation. This can serve as a life lesson so that when we’re faced with similar circumstances, we can consciously change our behavior. 38 Such lessons in relationships are as varied and unique as each relationship, yet there are common themes. 39 Some of us learn a major life lesson when a loved one dies, and we wish we had spent more time with that person. This lesson can result in us spending more time with our remaining loved ones. 40 Since the lesson is learned through the consequences of our actions or reactions, in this way we can gain insight into how we think, act and react in certain situations. Perhaps one of the biggest lessons we can finally learn is that while we can’t control everything, we can control our response to things. A. Life lessons are unique to each person. B. Some of these lessons are learned the hard way. C. This separates a life lesson from everything else we learn. D. Spending more time with loved ones is one of the examples. E. Life lessons can serve to help us understand ourselves better. F. One way to improve your life is to learn something new every day. G. To put it simply, a life lesson teaches us not to make the same mistake twice. 第三部分 语言知识运用 (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。 “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 12 页 共 19 页 In order to save the environment, everybody has a role to play.

You’re making progress every day.” To help Amy stay healthy, her husband had been running with her for over two years. Several years ago, Amy could barely walk down the stairs of her apartment building due to fatness caused by eating disorders. She realized the problem after a failed job interview and began walking to improve her ability to move. At first, she could walk for only 15 minutes at a time. But she pushed herself every day, walking 5 minutes longer than she did the day before until she walked for an hour and eventually two. For three years, Amy kept her walking habit, slowly and painstakingly building her body shape. Then she changed her walking shoes to running shoes about two years ago and became an excellent runner. “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 15 页 共 19 页 In March 2001, an advertisement invited people to nominate(提名) an ordinary person who inspired them to bring the Olympic flame to Salt Lake City as torch bearers (火炬手) or support runners. (Support runners serve as “guardians of the flame” and run with torch bearers along the journey.) Amy’s experiences touched her husband, so he nominated her to be a torch bearer. The possibility to be selected was low, but Amy wanted to try. Running taught Amy the importance of training for a race. She pictured herself running a race and crossing the finish line. For months, she ran through her neighborhood carrying a broken-off broom handle, feeling the weight of the torch. She waved at her neighbors, pretending they were cheering crowds. She also printed a picture of a torch bearer wearing the white uniform, replaced the face with a picture of hers, and put it onto her refrigerator door. Every day, Amy imagined herself as a torch bearer. She was training for a historic running event. On September 26th, while on her daily run through her neighborhood, an express package arrived. 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。 Paragraph 1: Amy opened it and found a letter and a book on the Olympics._________________ _______________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: “One of today’s torch bearers can’t run her part,” announced the relay organizer. ___ _______________________________________________________________________ “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 16 页 共 19 页 高三六校联考英语科参考答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 1—5 ABCCA 6—10 BBACA 11—15 CBABC 16—20 AABBC 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 50 分） 21—25.

Then, we had an opportunity to display our handwriting. Besides, we shared our feelings with others and took photos for memory. The activity turned out to be a great success and it was highly approved by most of participants. 第一节 （满分 25 分） Paragraph 1: Amy opened it and found a letter and a book on the Olympics. The letter read, “Congratulations! You’ve been selected as a support runner for the Olympic Torch Relay...” Although she wouldn’t be wearing the white uniform and carrying the torch as she had imagined, she wasn’t disappointed. She completed the required physical examination ， delivered the forms, and waited. Months later, another package arrived. It contained her official blue support runner uniform along with instructions for her part of the relay. Then on a cold day, Amy and her husband stood outside the Torch Relay collection point. Paragraph 2: One of today’s torch bearers can’t run her part, announced the relay organizer. Then he dropped folded pieces of paper into his hat, saying, “One lucky support runner will become a torch bearer. Select a number now. ” Luckily, Amy became the torch bearer. When it was her turn to carry the flame, she positioned herself to receive the flame. Holding it tight, she ran down the street filled with people waving flags. The Olympic theme song was broadcast. Amy smiled and waved to the crowds, knowing that she was carrying not only the torch, but also the Olympic spirit. “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 17 页 共 19 页 高考英语听力模拟试题 1 Text 1 (28词) 蛋糕口味 M: Which flavor of the cupcake do you prefer?

Text 10 (200词) 游览史前巨石阵 M: Last year, I stayed in my uncle’s house in the U.K., and I was lucky enough to visit Stonehenge, the prehistoric monument in England with my dad. I had known this place from my teacher, but when I saw it in person, I was immediately struck by the size of it. Our tour guide told us that according to historians, Stonehenge took in total 13 million hours of labor, and that it was built in three different stages. The first stage involved digging in the ground and didn’t involve putting up any stones. The first stones were built in the second stage of construction. These stones, some of which weigh 4 tons, were transported over land and on water from the mountains of South Wales, and it was a journey of 240 miles! The third stage saw the arrival of the bigger stones. These didn’t have such a long journey, maybe 25 miles or so. But they are much bigger. The heaviest of them all is an amazing 50 tons. The tour guide said about 60 stones were originally used, but there aren’t that many left these days. And no one is exactly sure why this monument was built. 词汇链接： Text 6 feel/ be cross (with someone/ about something) 对 (某人/某事) 感到生气。 Text 9 make every penny count 让每一分钱都 (花得) 物有所值。 背景知识： Text 10 Stonehenge 巨石阵位于英格兰威尔特郡埃姆斯伯里 (Amesbury, Wiltshire)，距离伦敦 约120公里，是英国的旅游热门地之一，每年都有约100万人从世界各地慕名前来参观。那里的 “六校联考”半期考英语试卷 第 19 页 共 19 页 几十块巨石围成一个大圆圈，其中一些石块足有六米之高。据估计，这些巨石已经在这个一马 平川的平原上矗立了几千年。2008年的考古研究从该处挖掘出远至公元前1958年的古代骨灰， 考古学家猜测该处最初可能为古时墓地。 试题解析： 15. 细节理解题。此题需从男子的答语中得知女子的钱花在了何处。男子说：“Well, if only you hadn’t spent so much on those bags.” “if only+主语+had+过去分词”这一结构，表示与过去事实 相反，可知女子就是把钱花在了买包上。另外从之后女子的反应：“Yeah, I’ve regretted it already.”也可了解女子买了包，并且已经后悔了，故选C。 1—5 ABCCA 6—10 BBACA 11—15 CBABC 16—20 AABBC
