As with everything else in life, our approach to keeping fit and healthy has changed over time. Here are four iconic fitness trends through the decades. Aerobics — 1970s Aerobics took off to improve the cardiovascular (心血管) system in a fun way and dance moves were combined with fitness movements, such as leg raises and marching in place. Aerobics inspired many different spin-offs from dance and step aerobics, to even water-based classes, all set to music. Spinning — 1990s Spinning launched cycling revolution in the 1990s which continues to this day, thanks to big-name gyms which have made cycling on fixed bikes a party for participants. Color changing lights, high-energy music and enthusiastic instructors have turned spin classes into a lively group activity which has attracted fans around the world. CrossFit—2000s CrossFit has been a team favorite in the fitness scene since the 2000s. The activity is competitive yet shared, with scores being tracked on a board. Classes typically last an hour or less, making each session an intense (强度的) and time-efficient workout which many are able to fit into their busy schedules. HIIT — 2020s HIIT, which stands for High Intensity Interval Training, has gained popularity recently, along with the rise of home workouts. Exercises, done in short, intense bursts, aim to build strength and endurance. It can be done through free online classes without any equipment, making it an affordable workout at home. 1.

(自2000年代以来，混合健身一直是健身界的团队最爱)”可知，Spinning动感单车和CrossFit混合健身都可以成为团体运动。故选B项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It can be done through free online classes without any equipment, making it an affordable workout at home.(它可以通过免费的在线课程完成，不需要任何设备，使其成为一种负担得起的在家锻炼)”可知，HIIT间歇训练可以在家跟着网上免费课程训练，所以这项运动是非常经济实惠且方便开展的。故选B项。 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” This is the way the charity organization Heifer International (国际小母牛慈善组织) wants to end world hunger. It began in the 1930s when an American farmer, Dan West, went to Spain to help people in need. He tried to feed the people with milk. But it seemed that there would never be enough milk. It made him think that what they needed was “not a cup, but a cow”. Dan West returned to America. He worked together with some friends to find ways to end hunger. He believed giving animals and providing training would stop world hunger. With his help, Heifer International was set up. On Heifer International’s website, you will see a list of animals like cows, chickens, pigs and even fish and bees. You can offer help by buying some animals for one certain family. Those animals will have babies. With more and more animals, these families will be able to support themselves. Once these families get better lives, they will pass on the act of kindness to others. More importantly, you are buying the resources (资源) for programs run by Heifer International to help more families. The programs also help small-sized farms. As a rule, each farmer must give his animal’s first female ( 雄性) baby to another in need. Heifer International also provides training on animals health and feeding. And these farmers all agree to teach others what they have learned as another rule. However, there is still a long way to go. The milk may run out. But if families have their own cows, they can get plenty of milk to feed themselves. The organization wants the farmers to go on working together, helping each other and learning from each other. Maybe hunger can really be stopped. 4. According to the passage, we know that Dan West_________. A. set up a team in Spain B. helped people with enough fish C. was a Spanish farmer D. helped set up Heifer International 5. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the charity organization Heifer International? A. Heifer International makes a list of animals on its website. B.

The best title of this passage may be “________” A. Advice on Feeding Cows B. A Cow Instead of a Cup C. The Charity Organizations D. An American Farmer 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。国际小母牛慈善机构帮助人们减少饥饿，它用自身行动践行了“授人以鱼不如授人以渔”的道理。文章主要介绍了国际小母牛慈善机构的成立以及运营情况。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。通读第三段，尤其是最后一句话“With his help, Heifer International was set up.(在他的帮助下，国际小母牛组织成立了)”可知，Dan West帮助建立了国际小母牛组织，故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“As a rule, each farmer must give his animal’s first female( 雄性) baby to another in need. ( 一般来说，每个农民主必须把他饲养的动物的第一个雌性幼崽交给另一个需要帮助的人。)”可知，参与这个组织的农民必须把他饲养的动物的第一个雌性幼崽给其他需要的人，而不是把所有的幼崽都给其他人，故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，第一段引出了国际小母牛慈善机构；第二段和第三段讲述了国际小母牛慈善机构的建立；第四段和第五段讲述了国际小母牛慈善机构的运营情况；最后一段主要讲述了国际小母牛慈善机构希望农民们继续一起工作，互相帮助，互相学习，这样或许能结束饥饿。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段第一段中“As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish,and you feed him for a lifetime.” his is the way the charity organization Heifer International (国际小母牛慈善组织) wants to end world hunger.(俗话说：“给人一条鱼，就给他一天的食物。教会一个人钓鱼，就能养活他一辈子。”这就是慈善组织国际小母牛组织想要结束世界饥饿的方式。)”和第二段中“It made him think that what they needed was“not a cup, but a cow”.(这让他觉得他们需要的“不是一个杯子，而是一头牛”)”可知，文章主要介绍了国际小母牛慈善机构帮助人们减少饥饿，它用自身行动践行了“授人以鱼不如授人以渔”的道理。B项“一头牛，而不是一杯牛奶”体现了“授人以鱼不如授人以渔”的道理，能概括该慈善机构的践行。故选B。 Before the internet made book reviews widely accessible, where would curious minds go to find information about a new novel’s subject matter or a plot? If you lived in the Los Angeles area, you could reference the Los Angeles Public Library’s index of fiction book review cards. The reviews, a collection of thousands of index cards, contain library staff members’ thoughts and opinions about new fiction releases that the library carried. The library system started in the 1920s and into the 1980s. Robert Anderson, who has worked as a librarian at the LAPL since 1980, says the staff review cards were a handy tool that library staff used to answer specific questions the public had about different books. The reviews, along with being a helpful public tool, also helped staff pick which books the LAPL would order for their shelves. If a staff member reviewed a book favorably, they were more likely to carry the title and order multiple copies. The review process was simple: On an index card, library staff would handwrite or type up an abstract of a book they read and give their personal review of it. The cards offered adjectives that the reviewer could underline to indicate how the story might affect readers emotionally. For example, for the library’s review of Virginia Woolf’s 1925 book Mrs. Dalloway, the reviewer underlined “wholesome,” “pleasant,” and “interesting.” Of the staff member’s characterization of the book, Anderson said he wasn’t sure why the reviewer considered Woolf’s writing — which deals with loneliness and other, often dark human experiences — to be healthy, “but they did.” The Los Angeles Public Library’s index of staff review cards isn’t used regularly anymore. But the system now serves as a historical record of both the books, some almost 100 years old, as well as the cultural views held by the book-loving library staff of the time. 8. What could be found in the LAPL’s review cards? A. Public opinions about the library’s services. B. A list of all the books available in the library. C. A summary of the most popular books in the library. D. Librarians’ comments on newly added fiction books. 9. What was the purpose of the review cards for the public? A. To provide free books. B. To offer readers reference. C. To promote new authors. D. To help with book orders. 10. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. The reviews’ comments were subjective. B. Virginia Woolf’s books were difficult to understand. C. The librarians made wrong judgements about the books. D. The reviewers used some adjectives to describe the books. 11. What is the author’s attitude toward the review card system? A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Appreciative. D. Neutral. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了洛杉矶公共图书馆的虚构书籍评论卡片系统的历史和作用，以及它如何帮助图书馆工作人员和读者了解新小说。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The reviews, a collection of thousands of index cards, contain library staff members’ thoughts and opinions about new fiction releases that the library carried.(这些评论，是一系列数千张索引卡片，包含图书馆工作人员对图书馆收藏的新小说的看法和意见。)”可知，评论卡片中包含图书馆工作人员对新小说的看法和评论。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的句子“Robert Anderson, who has worked as a librarian at the LAPL since 1980, says the staff review cards were a handy tool that library staff used to answer specific questions the public had about different books.(自1980年以来一直在洛杉矶国立图书馆担任图书管理员的Robert Anderson说，员工书评卡是图书馆工作人员用来回答公众对不同书籍提出的具体问题的方便工具。)”可知，评论卡片的目的是为读者提供参考。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的句子“On an index card, library staff would handwrite or type up an abstract of a book they read and give their personal review of it.(在索引卡上，图书馆工作人员会手写或打印他们读过的一本书的摘要，并给出他们的个人评论。)”和下面的例子“For example, for the library’s review of Virginia Woolf’s 1925 book Mrs. Dalloway, the reviewer underlined “wholesome,” “pleasant,” and “interesting.” Of the staff member’s characterization of the book, Anderson said he wasn’t sure why the reviewer considered Woolf’s writing — which deals with loneliness and other, often dark human experiences — to be wholesome, “but they did.”(例如，在图书馆对弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫1925年作品《达洛维夫人》的评论中，书评人着重标注了‘健康向上’‘赏心悦目’‘妙趣横生’等词。面对工作人员对这本书的定性，安德森表示不解——他不明白为何书评人会将伍尔夫笔下那些描写孤独与人性幽暗的文字视为‘健康向上’，‘但他们的确这么写了。’)”可以推断出，评论卡中的评论是主观的。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The Los Angeles Public Library’s index of staff review cards isn’t used regularly anymore. But the system now serves as a historical record of both the books, some almost 100 years old, as well as the cultural views held by the book-loving library staff of the time.(洛杉矶公共图书馆的员工评论卡索引不再经常使用。但是，这个系统现在既可以作为这些书的历史记录，也可以作为当时爱书的图书馆工作人员所持有的文化观点的历史记录。)”可知，尽管洛杉矶公共图书馆的评论卡片系统现在不再经常使用，但它作为一个历史记录，记录了近100年前的书籍以及当时的图书馆工作人员的文化观点。这表明作者对这个系统持有一种欣赏的态度。故选C项。 阅读理解 3M and Discovery Education announced Sean Jiang from Gilman School as one of the top ten finalists from across the nation for the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge. It’s a competition that encourages students to identify an everyday problem and submit a video showing the science behind the solution he or she came up with. 14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. Blind people had a hard time navigationg (导航) objects that are medium to far range. So Jiang wanted to design something to give them a heads-up on obstacles (障碍) that may be incoming. Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. “I learned in school that bats and whales are able to use echolocation (回声定位) to help them navigate and just use their sense of hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them walk,” said Jiang. Jiang started with a virtual reality setting and then made it a reality. His creation uses a depth camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to avoid the obstacles. When a blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical sound guidance. This could significantly increase the walking speed of a blind person as well as decrease the number of obstacles they hit. Some other similar programs were alright at finding objects that were in close range, but Jiang still wanted the blind to experience the world even fuller so they were able to see stuff that was much further away than their circle of reach. In October, the top ten finalists will compete in person in Minneapolis for the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” and a $25,000 prize. 12. What’s the main purpose of the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge? A. It is to inspire students to recognize a daily problem and demonstrate the scientific principle behind the solution. B. It is to help schools select talents. C. It is to develop students’ teamwork and creativity. D. It is to encourage students to find problems and build their confidence. 13. What does the underlined word “heads-up” mean in paragraph 2? A. Raising head. B. Brief report. C. One-on-one match. D. Advance warning. 14. What can we learn about Jiang from the text? A. He was the champion of the 2023 3M event. B. He invented technology to remove road obstacles. C. He sought to assist the blind in walking smoothly. D. He developed a new navigation app for his school. 15. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How did the device help the blind. B. The source of inspiration for Sean Jiang’s invention. C. The reason Jiang entered the competition. D. Jiang’s device’s creation process. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一个青少年Sean Jiang的发明创造，他发明的设备能用声音帮助盲人顺利行走。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“It’s a competition that encourages students to identify an everyday problem and submit a video showing the science behind the solution he or she came up with.(这项比赛鼓励学生找出日常问题，并提交一段能够展示他或她想出的解决方案背后的科学原理的视频。)”可知，该挑战赛的主要目的是激发学生发现一个日常问题，并展示解决方案背后的科学原理。故选A项。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“Blind people had a hard time navigating (导航) objects that are medium to far range.(盲人很难导航中远距离的物体)”以及后文的定语从句“that may be incoming(即将到来的)”可知，盲人很难导航中远距离的物体，Jiang想设计一些对即将面临的障碍物做出提前预警的东西。heads-up意为“提前预警”。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“His creation uses a depth camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to avoid the obstacles. When a blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical sound guidance. This could significantly increase the walking speed of a blind person as well as decrease the number of obstacles they hit.(他的发明使用了一个深度相机，可以探测到物体有多近，从而有足够的时间避开障碍物。当盲人使用该设备行走时，深度相机的传感器会收集有关障碍物位置和距离的信息。然后其中的人工智能系统将把距离数据转化为音乐声音引导。这可以显著提高盲人的行走速度，并减少他们撞到的障碍物数量)”可知，Jiang设法帮助盲人顺利行走。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. ‘I learned in school that bats and whales are able to use echolocation (回声定位) to help them navigate and just use their sense of hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them walk,’ said Jiang.(Jiang的灵感来自于听觉系统的力量。‘我在学校里学过蝙蝠和鲸鱼能够利用回声定位来帮助它们导航，而且我还在YouTube上看到一些非常熟练的盲人利用回声定位来帮助他们走路。’ Jiang说)”可知，此段介绍的是Jiang的灵感来源，故选B项。 四、第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分 12.5分) 七选五 How to Make Friends Having friends may keep you healthier and help you deal with difficulties better.

His joy spread through his smile as he stood by the geometry blackboard, showing his passion for plane geometry (平面几何). I was a quiet, shy student who rarely spoke up — never causing trouble or drawing attention. Yet in his class, plane geometry unexpectedly became my favorite subject. Through his lively teaching, the clear logic of geometric principles quietly awakened interest in my usually silent heart. Toward the end of the year, Mr. Whiteside wanted to check our knowledge of geometry and gave us 25 true/ false questions — a nationally standardized test: The test presented each problem with a conclusion shown. If we could prove the result using rules we learnt in math class, the answer was true. If it couldn’t be proved, it was false. I quickly finished 24 problems. However, number 17 seemed to be a great challenge. I knew deep down that I had the ability to prove its truth, but the exact approach was not immediately obvious. Finally, I spent 30 minutes working on that proof until it was completed. Satisfied, I marked the question true and handed in the completed test. The following day, when the results came back, my score was an impressive 96, signaling a solid grasp of the subject. However, to my surprise and disappointment, number 17 was marked as incorrect. It was a blow to my confidence, but I couldn’t ignore the efforts I had put into that problem. I clearly remembered that I had racked my brain to cover my page with related lines, figures and formulas until the proof was there at last. When Mr. Whiteside asked if there were any questions, for the first time, gathering all my courage, I raised my hand and spoke up, “The correct answer to number 17 is true!” Instead of arguing that this was a nationally standardized test, Mr. Whiteside did the most powerful thing I have ever seen a teacher do. 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。 Para. 1 Nodding smilingly, he held out his chalk to me in front of the class. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para.2 From that day in his geometry class, something changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Nodding smilingly, he held out his chalk to me in front of the class. Hesitantly, I walked to the blackboard to show my proof to the class. My hands trembled slightly as I sketched the geometric figures with chalk, but Mr. Whiteside’s reassuring smile gave me the confidence to continue. My voice grew steadier as I connected related lines, cited formulas, and explained each step logically. The classroom fell silent except for the rhythmic tapping of chalk. When I finished, Mr. Whiteside studied the board intently, his eyes tracing every line. Suddenly, he clapped — a sharp, triumphant sound — and declared, “Flawless!” The class erupted in applause. From that day in his geometry class, something changed. I started participating more in class discussions and became more willing to share my ideas with others. Mr. Whiteside’s trust in my reasoning had ignited a quiet confidence that transcended geometry, transforming my shyness into thoughtful participation. Looking back, I realized true education isn’t about standardized answers, but about nurturing courage to think, question, and prove the truth. Mr. Whiteside didn’t just teach geometry; he taught me how to make silence speak and doubts shine. His impact on my life has been immeasurable, and I will forever be grateful for the lesson he taught me that day. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在怀特赛德先生的几何课上，从原本内向羞涩的学生转变为敢于质疑、勇于表达，并重拾自信的成长故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他微笑着点头，在全班面前把粉笔递给我”可知，第一段可描写作者鼓起勇气在全班同学面前用粉笔证明自己答案正确的具体过程，以及最终得到怀特赛德先生认可和全班掌声的情景。 ②由第二段首句内容“从那天上几何课开始，一切都变了”可知，第二段可描写作者在得到怀特赛德先生的肯定后，在性格和态度上发生的积极转变，以及怀特赛德先生的教学方式对作者产生的深远影响。 2.续写线索：接过粉笔——内心紧张但鼓起勇气——清晰展示证明过程——获得老师肯定与同学掌声——性格逐渐变得自信开朗——学会独立思考与质疑——感悟教育真谛并心怀感激 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①结束：finish/complete ②展示：show/display ③意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①害羞：shyness/bashfulness ②不可估量：immeasurable/invaluable 【点睛】[高分句型1] When I finished, Mr. Whiteside studied the board intently, his eyes tracing every line.（由when引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] Looking back, I realized true education isn’t about standardized answers, but about nurturing courage to think, question, and prove the truth.（由现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 贵阳市第三实验中学2025学年高二下学期期末模拟考试英语试卷 一、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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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．What do the speakers have in common?

Aerobics inspired many different spin-offs from dance and step aerobics, to even water-based classes, all set to music. Spinning — 1990s Spinning launched cycling revolution in the 1990s which continues to this day, thanks to big-name gyms which have made cycling on fixed bikes a party for participants. Color changing lights, high-energy music and enthusiastic instructors have turned spin classes into a lively group activity which has attracted fans around the world. CrossFit—2000s CrossFit has been a team favorite in the fitness scene since the 2000s. The activity is competitive yet shared, with scores being tracked on a board.

Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” This is the way the charity organization Heifer International (国际小母牛慈善组织) wants to end world hunger. It began in the 1930s when an American farmer, Dan West, went to Spain to help people in need. He tried to feed the people with milk. But it seemed that there would never be enough milk. It made him think that what they needed was “not a cup, but a cow”. Dan West returned to America. He worked together with some friends to find ways to end hunger. He believed giving animals and providing training would stop world hunger. With his help, Heifer International was set up. On Heifer International’s website, you will see a list of animals like cows, chickens, pigs and even fish and bees. You can offer help by buying some animals for one certain family. Those animals will have babies. With more and more animals, these families will be able to support themselves. Once these families get better lives, they will pass on the act of kindness to others. More importantly, you are buying the resources (资源) for programs run by Heifer International to help more families. The programs also help small-sized farms. As a rule, each farmer must give his animal’s first female ( 雄性) baby to another in need. Heifer International also provides training on animals health and feeding. And these farmers all agree to teach others what they have learned as another rule. However, there is still a long way to go. The milk may run out. But if families have their own cows, they can get plenty of milk to feed themselves. The organization wants the farmers to go on working together, helping each other and learning from each other. Maybe hunger can really be stopped. 4. According to the passage, we know that Dan West_________. A. set up a team in Spain B. helped people with enough fish C. was a Spanish farmer D. helped set up Heifer International 5. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the charity organization Heifer International? A. Heifer International makes a list of animals on its website. B. Farmers in the program must teach others how to feed animals. C. Farmers in the program must give all the animals’ babies to others. D Heifer Intermational provides training on animals' health and feeding. 6. If we put the passage into four parts, which of the following is the best? （①=Para.1 ②=Para.2 ③=Para.3 ④=Para.4 ⑤= Para.5 ⑥= Para.6） A. ①；②③；④⑤；⑥ B. ①；②③；④；⑤⑥ C. ①②；③；④⑤；⑥ D. ①②③；④；⑤；⑥ 7. The best title of this passage may be “________” A. Advice on Feeding Cows B. A Cow Instead of a Cup C. The Charity Organizations D. An American Farmer Before the internet made book reviews widely accessible, where would curious minds go to find information about a new novel’s subject matter or a plot? If you lived in the Los Angeles area, you could reference the Los Angeles Public Library’s index of fiction book review cards. The reviews, a collection of thousands of index cards, contain library staff members’ thoughts and opinions about new fiction releases that the library carried. The library system started in the 1920s and into the 1980s. Robert Anderson, who has worked as a librarian at the LAPL since 1980, says the staff review cards were a handy tool that library staff used to answer specific questions the public had about different books. The reviews, along with being a helpful public tool, also helped staff pick which books the LAPL would order for their shelves. If a staff member reviewed a book favorably, they were more likely to carry the title and order multiple copies. The review process was simple: On an index card, library staff would handwrite or type up an abstract of a book they read and give their personal review of it. The cards offered adjectives that the reviewer could underline to indicate how the story might affect readers emotionally. For example, for the library’s review of Virginia Woolf’s 1925 book Mrs. Dalloway, the reviewer underlined “wholesome,” “pleasant,” and “interesting.” Of the staff member’s characterization of the book, Anderson said he wasn’t sure why the reviewer considered Woolf’s writing — which deals with loneliness and other, often dark human experiences — to be healthy, “but they did.” The Los Angeles Public Library’s index of staff review cards isn’t used regularly anymore. But the system now serves as a historical record of both the books, some almost 100 years old, as well as the cultural views held by the book-loving library staff of the time. 8. What could be found in the LAPL’s review cards? A. Public opinions about the library’s services. B. A list of all the books available in the library. C. A summary of the most popular books in the library. D. Librarians’ comments on newly added fiction books. 9. What was the purpose of the review cards for the public? A. To provide free books. B. To offer readers reference. C. To promote new authors. D. To help with book orders. 10. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. The reviews’ comments were subjective. B. Virginia Woolf’s books were difficult to understand. C. The librarians made wrong judgements about the books. D. The reviewers used some adjectives to describe the books. 11. What is the author’s attitude toward the review card system? A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Appreciative. D. Neutral. 阅读理解 3M and Discovery Education announced Sean Jiang from Gilman School as one of the top ten finalists from across the nation for the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge. It’s a competition that encourages students to identify an everyday problem and submit a video showing the science behind the solution he or she came up with. 14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. Blind people had a hard time navigationg (导航) objects that are medium to far range. So Jiang wanted to design something to give them a heads-up on obstacles (障碍) that may be incoming. Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. “I learned in school that bats and whales are able to use echolocation (回声定位) to help them navigate and just use their sense of hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them walk,” said Jiang. Jiang started with a virtual reality setting and then made it a reality. His creation uses a depth camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to avoid the obstacles. When a blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical sound guidance.

His joy spread through his smile as he stood by the geometry blackboard, showing his passion for plane geometry (平面几何). I was a quiet, shy student who rarely spoke up — never causing trouble or drawing attention. Yet in his class, plane geometry unexpectedly became my favorite subject. Through his lively teaching, the clear logic of geometric principles quietly awakened interest in my usually silent heart. Toward the end of the year, Mr. Whiteside wanted to check our knowledge of geometry and gave us 25 true/ false questions — a nationally standardized test: The test presented each problem with a conclusion shown. If we could prove the result using rules we learnt in math class, the answer was true. If it couldn’t be proved, it was false. I quickly finished 24 problems. However, number 17 seemed to be a great challenge. I knew deep down that I had the ability to prove its truth, but the exact approach was not immediately obvious. Finally, I spent 30 minutes working on that proof until it was completed. Satisfied, I marked the question true and handed in the completed test. The following day, when the results came back, my score was an impressive 96, signaling a solid grasp of the subject. However, to my surprise and disappointment, number 17 was marked as incorrect. It was a blow to my confidence, but I couldn’t ignore the efforts I had put into that problem. I clearly remembered that I had racked my brain to cover my page with related lines, figures and formulas until the proof was there at last. When Mr. Whiteside asked if there were any questions, for the first time, gathering all my courage, I raised my hand and spoke up, “The correct answer to number 17 is true!” Instead of arguing that this was a nationally standardized test, Mr. Whiteside did the most powerful thing I have ever seen a teacher do. 注意： 1.续写词数应150左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para. 1 Nodding smilingly, he held out his chalk to me in front of the class. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para.2 From that day in his geometry class, something changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
