乌鲁木齐市高级中学2023-2024学年高三上学期12月月考英语试题
总分120分考试时间120分钟
一、阅读理解（共40分）
During my third year of university,I spent six months studying in Rio de
Janeiro,Brazil.Many are worried about travelling to Rio but I promise,it is worth
a visit.Now I want to share my top recommendations for experiencing Rio
less as a tourist but more like a native Brazilian.
Pedra Bonita
Rio is full of hiking routes,and some Brazilians love to spend an afternoon
hiking.My favorite route of all has to be Pedra Bonita.Pedra Bonita involves a
steep climb of about an hour through tall trees,and I admit it is difficult in Rio's
heat,but you are rewarded at the top with a wonderful view of the city,standing
high above the green landscape and blue sea below.
Mureta da Urca
One thing you are sure to find in Rio is an amazing sunset,but a lot of the
best spots tend to be full of tourists.In my opinion,Mureta da Urca is the most
relaxing place to watch the sun set over the silver sea,with the figure of Christ the
Redeemer standing tall in the background.
Pedra do Sal
Pedra do Sal is a historical area in the city centre and on Monday nights it is
brought to life by the sound of samba.Hundreds of people gather in the street,
food and drink stalls are set up and it becomes a giant street party with everyone
enjoying the happy sound of live samba!
