02 Period II Discovering Useful Structures—Reading for Writing Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 A [河南省实验中学2024高一期中] While most people are inspired by the motto （座右铭）, “You’re never too old to learn something new,” Kimeila Campbell has proven that a person is never too young to bring about change. Born in Jamaica and later moving to the United States, Kimeila grew up watching her entrepreneur （企业家） mother run an event space. “Seeing her go through ups and downs made me want to be an entrepreneur too,” said Kimeila, who sometimes helped her mum at Glitz Elite Events Studio. “I thought for my age, maybe I’m too young. But my mum said it could help other kids and teen entrepreneurs instead of just making money for myself.” With this ambition, she started her own monthly magazine when she celebrated her 14th birthday. Her YNTY Magazine—which stands for You’re Never Too Young—aims to inspire young and upcoming entrepreneurs, influencers and public figures. It is to inspire people younger than 18 to follow their dreams whatever their age. 刷阅读理解 2 “Nowadays, teenagers look up to rich women and men on social media and dream to be like them, without any idea of the price they had to pay to get to where they are now,” Kimeila said. “Consider your choices carefully and make goals for where you want to be in the future.” In the magazine, Kimeila shows hot topics, daily affirmations （每日警句）, as well as suggestions from professionals and those who have made it in their industries. Meanwhile, the YNTY Magazine also includes a special part in which necessary steps are given to parents of young entrepreneurs to help and guide their children. “One thing I’d like my readers to know is that… if you believe you can do it, YNTY is where you can come to find a community of comfort and confidence to support your dreams.” Kimeila refused to wait until she’s older to make a difference in the world. In the next five years, the young girl wants to make the YNTY Magazine “become available on news stands around the world, in various languages; become a household name and the kidpreneurs go to for advice and inspiration whenever they feel discouraged or overwhelmed （不知所措的）”. 刷阅读理解 3 【语篇导读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了基梅拉·坎贝尔受妈妈的影响，创办了自己的杂志，成为一名青年企业家的故事。 1.What does the article tell us about Campbell?( ) B A.She was born and raised in the US.

Nowadays, most schools have given up shop class in favour of academic subjects. However, the National Science Foundation STEM Guitar Project thinks that academic subjects and carpentry （木匠活） can be combined. This organisation aims to get students excited about science, maths, and the arts all at once, by teaching students how to make a guitar. Experts forecast that technical skills like the ones used in making the guitars could be in great demand in the future. Unfortunately, many high schools don’t offer students access to mechanical design skills, due to the fact that they are not on the list of standardised subjects and the schools can’t scientifically assess students’ performance. But, is STEM really needed in order to build a guitar? Actually, it’s impossible to make a guitar without knowing science and maths. 刷阅读理解 9 Joshua Cruz, a design teacher, said that building a guitar also teaches troubleshooting and problem-solving skills. He thinks the STEM Guitar Project provides opportunities to challenge students to apply their own creativity to STEM problems. “I’m still figuring out how we can apply it,” Cruz explained. “I think we’re going to use a lot of the same theories behind how strings and stringed instruments work and try and get them to make stringed instruments of their own, and thus improve their academic performance.” Because of its effectiveness and creativity, the guitar initiative （倡议） was offered the Gerhard Salinger award, which recognises outstanding STEM school programmes. “Through this project, we have become part of this community of businessmen, engineers and artisans,” said Mark French, one of the six people who received the award for his work with the STEM guitar. “It’s a great group and I’m really pleased to be part of it. I get to combine something that I just love doing with an activity that really does make the world a little bit better place. It really does help people.” Thanks to people like Mark French, and to the STEM Guitar Project, the world is a little bit of a better, more educated, and more musical place. 刷阅读理解 10 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国国家科学基金会的STEM吉他项目，该项目旨在通过教学生如何制作吉他，让学生同时对科学、数学和艺术产生兴趣。 1.Why are mechanical design skills unavailable to high school students?( ) B A.Students are not excited about these skills. B.Students’ performance can’t be properly evaluated. C.They are not necessary for the students’ growth. D.They are of no help to students’ academic performance. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的… due to the fact that they are not on the list of standardised subjects and the schools can’t scientifically assess students’ performance.可知，高中生没办法学习机械设计技能是由于机械设计技能不在标准化科目之列，学校无法科学地评估学生的表现，即学生的表现不能得到正确的评价。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 11 2.What benefit can students get from building a guitar?( ) D A.The ability to find faults with others. B.The skills of making a guitar independently. C.The opportunity to challenge scientific theories. D.The improvement of creativity and learning ability. 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的building a guitar also teaches troubleshooting and problem-solving skills和He thinks the STEM Guitar Project provides opportunities to challenge students to apply their own creativity to STEM problems.以及thus improve their academic performance可知，制作吉他可以让学生们掌握排除故障和解决问题的技能，还能应用创造力，并提高学习成绩，即制作吉他可以提高学生的创造力和学习能力。故选D项。 刷阅读理解 12 3.What is Mark French’s attitude towards the STEM Guitar Project?( ) C A.Critical. B.Indifferent. C.Positive. D.Doubtful. 解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“It’s a great group and I’m really pleased to be part of it… It really does help people.”可知，马克·弗伦奇认为STEM吉他项目是一个很棒的项目，对人们很有帮助，所以他对于STEM吉他项目持肯定态度。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 13 4.What is the text mainly about?( ) D A.The combination of skills in a project.
